no you're not... unless you have a private helicopter.

Why would I make it up, just to prove a point? I pick the wife up around 5 and we're on Constitution by 5:30... maybe 5:40 if 66 is backed up to Glebe.

P.S. - Your chart making skillz sux0r!

I think that actually helps my argument. I said I can get downtown in 30 minutes, 45 minutes if there's traffic, leaving a little before 5. 15 minutes to EFC Metro (see below) and another 30 after that? Where's the problem?

It took me 13 minutes to get from my house to the Beltway at 5:45pm yesterday. Assuming the same about an hour earlier are you really telling me that doing 15 mph for the last 8 (?) miles isn't possible? I was actually in Rockville by 6:30 (45 minutes) despite planning it taking over an hour. Getting into DC isn't nearly as bad as the American Legion bridge.

Ultimately it doesn't matter 'cause I know how long it takes me... and I can definitely make it downtown for a Nationals game, which was your original argument against. Besides, living out here has nothing to do with making it downtown after work... working here does... and you work like 10 minutes away from me. Tongue

Yeah... paying $3 more for a tank of gas is expensive as shit... if you work at McDonald's.

I guess a 4 mile commute with only 2 lights doesn't really count though.

Inconsequential since only 1 fill up would be in Nova.
