Heading down to the National Mall in a while to see the big man himself :mrgreen:

...I DOUBT I'll be able to get even remotely close and by the time he shows, more than likely it'll be too dark-Should I take the XSi or save it for Tuesday morning???

Come to think of it, not taking the Camera...not only is it getting kinda late (sun starts setting at 4) but it's way too many ppl...Camera gonna get knocked about etc etc

Anyway folks wait for pics later tonight, via my N82...I know I'll see loads of Trinis and Caribbean ppl in general down there celebrating!

P.S. Will keep an eye out for CJrukus, it still burning him on the inside :lol:

Ok and? What does Federal Debt have to do with D.C. debt?

Granted it's funded by the Federal gov't, it's actually been in a surplus for numerous years especially considering D.C. is ALMOST recession free.

NOTE:

You do realize that they are two separate things right?
