Editorials *snicker*
I find it funny people getting bent out of shape over being called out by Obama regarding the weather. On the other hand, there is an amount of regional pride that I understand and really should be expected. To that end, I just read this editorial and these two parts made me snicker.
"Really, now? Well, here's what I can handle that most out-of-towners cannot: I can flawlessly get around any traffic circle in Washington at rush hour. I can deftly navigate the labyrinth known as Rock Creek Parkway after dark when the signs are all but invisible, getting from the Kennedy Center to East-West Highway in minutes. I can negotiate the Mixing Bowl and the Flyover. I can find the Birchmere. I can pick clean a Chesapeake Bay blue crab in three minutes."
"So welcome to Washington, President Obama. And thanks for the snow advice. I eagerly await August, to see if you can "handle" a Washington summer. Remember: It's not the heat. It's the humidity."
Hilarious.
