A group of people from here are heading to Washington, DC for the swearing in of the new President of the United States on January 20.
They plan to join the estimated 4 million people who will cram into the Mall area to see history being made, I was told.
(I think the historical achievement may turn out to be the successful sale of the $5 per-use pay toilet and the $14 hot dog/chip combo…not necessarily in that order)
Four million people (and a lot less, actually) scare me to a significant degree. I don’t even go to Taco Bell when there is more than one person waiting in the drive-thru.
