The latest weather forecast for Washington DC and vicinity is for continued fog this afternoon, increasing in density throughout the remainder of the day. Willful ignorance and defiant denials are expected by daybreak.
Scattered "DUH" will probably be experienced by most areas, especially those in and around the White House.
The 7 Day & 30 Day forecasts are for more of the same.
One Congressman, well known for his travel junkets all over the world, as well as his absence during role call votes, was heard to tell a colleague: "I tell ya, it's such a relief to go back home and assure the folks that I'm not responsible for half the stuff that goes on around here."
Faced with both overcrowding and the need for a new school, the District of Columbia School Board passed this resolution:
"Be it resolved that a new building be constructed, and be it further resolved due to the increasing cost of materials, it shall be constructed of the materials now in the existing school building, and be it finally resolved that to avoid interruption of school functions, the present school building shall continue in use until the new school is ready for occupancy."
A door in a government building in Washington is labeled:
"4156 General Services Administration; Region 3; Public Buildings Service; Buildings Management Division; Utility Room; Custodial"
What's behind the door ??? Why, a Broom Closet, of course.
The DC City Council, recently stripped of just about all power still meets. At one meeting, the status of fireplugs around City owned buildings was discussed.
They directed that all fireplugs adjacent to City owned buildings be tested at least three days prior to every fire.
