    you may want to clarify that reply, make sure he knows that it only applies to the first part of his post.      Well I presume you only meant it to apply to the first part.

    the most guilt ever devil godiva

    guilt driven visions of aiko-diva on horsies

    Godiva is worth being guilty over! ;-P

    Best chocolate I ever had was in Paris, a little no-name shop next to the hotel I stayed in.  Every bite made me swoon and made my toes curl *blush*

     

    Before Godiva went plebeian and started displaying their product in chain department stores and drugstores all over the US, it was hard to find their chocolates.  Back in the '80s and '90s we lived in downtown Washington DC and there was a tiny Godiva store in Union Station (the grand old train station that had been converted to a hoity-toity shopping mall as well as a modern train & bus & subway (Metro) station)  We used to take a Metro sidetrip to Union Station just to grab a few Godiva goodies by the piece 'cause that was the only way we could afford them.

    Union Station: Washington DC https://www.amtrak.com/stations/was

    When I lived in Greenbelt, MD the closest place for Godiva was Needless Markups (Neiman-Marcus).  I haven't had Godiva in a long time but I do understand it's not as good as it used to be, which is sad.

    Ah, the Netro.  Used to take it downtown to the Mall and visit the Smithsonian.. years ago.  I love light rail!

     

    ...you'd like our system, five lines (including one to the airport) with a sixth in the planning stage. One of the lines travels through a 3 mile long tunnel with one of the deepest underground stations in the world.

    Back in the '80s and '90s when I lived in the Washington DC area there was always talk of extending the Metro system out to Dulles airport (25 miles NW of WashDC, outside the "Beltway") but it never happened.  But now I've learned that they have finally got (or are building) that extension.  That would have been great for me when I lived out it Reston, VA I could have walked to the station.  But back when I lived there I had to drive several miles to Falls Church, VA inside the beltway to try to find a parking spot in the always too small parking areas for the Metro.  But if doing the Washington DC downtown shopping or Smithsonian museum scene, Metro is the best way to go.  Quiet, clean and efficient. 

    Except for the 4th of July ceremonies on The Mall.  Speaking from experience, you don't want to wait until the fireworks are over before heading to the Metro station.  You want to leave about half-way through the fireworks to reach the Metro station well before the crowd gets there. enlightened  Otherwise you'll have to wait for 3 or 4 (or more) trains to get aboard.  And another trick is to head for the station a couple blocks off the Mall, not the one right on The Mall (but make sure you get on a train that is heading TOWARD the mall, not coming FROM it.  Duh!!!  The situation isn't as bad as Tokyo during rush hour but close. surprise

    @LG:  Wow, small world! I lived in Reston for a while, Winterthur as I recall.  Had some good times.  Also lived in Vienna, I graduated from Oakton High in '77.

    Never went anywhere near downtown DC on the 4th, my wife at the time went once and the stories she told kept me away.  I miss really good light rail service, there's one light rail line in Austin and it mainlu runs during commute hours and shuts down early, and is closed completely on Sundays.  I heat they want to extend it and improve open times, but there's squabbling from the cities they want to run to.  Idiots... :-|

    I expect a bag of coal this year.  The fireplace is blocked so Santa will have to use the dog door!  And I bet the sleigh falls off the roof.

    ...some of the trains here during the commute times are almost getting to Tokyo like crowding (we don't have transit system personnel hired to push people on the trains...yet). People here have taken to using transit instead of driving (thanks in part to many narrow streets in the central neighbourhoods, little if any free parking in the city centre, only three roads across the West Hills to the burbs on the west side, and for some the cost of keeping a roof over your head that takes most of your income).

    Just saw the first "3700 series" bus on Friday so another new batch of buses has apparently arrived.  Big plans for next year to improve service system wide and lay the final plans for the proposed southwest LRT line. Transit may be the only way to get around the inner area of the city in a few years as they are expecting big population gains here, mostly through migration.

    Actually, the story comes from a legend of a demon who goes into people houses and steals children, a horrifying Danish myth, but over the ages the demons name got changed somehow and now he delivers instead of steals.

    The demons name was 'Satan Claws'...!

    Nope as they have been out at that location for weeks now.  I did get a snowman cookie though.

    Home internet, phone and TV are out.  I could care more about a duck than that.  I have my cell phone active and can use that as a hotspot.  Just need to watch battery levels.  As long as it is back up by Sunday I do not care.  I do not watch TV which does not include Netflix.  I can watch Netflix as I have unlimited 3g hotspot.
