FF..must be bored today.
It lasted more than 20 mins for sure. Maybe you should fix the battery in your arm clock.

It lasted at least 20 minutes, possibly more.
I saw it at 19th & F. We didn't have to roast all day in the sun. We just walked over when the sun went down.
Across the street the OAS was meeting and inside there were also a few fireworks.
Some drunk coed hollered, "Go Honduras."

Anyone else find it ironic that we had a British singer at the concert on capitol hill? Good show though, I just kept looking up and hoping it wouldn't rain since the clouds were starting to get really dark.

It started at 9:10 and ended around 9:25. The metro ride home was worse. Waiting over an hour to get into the station and another 1 hr and 20 mins to get off the metro.

And yet, if you had just gone to any local bar with your friends and cooled your heels for an hour or so, you would have strolled onto a metro car, had your own seat, and gotten home in about 20 minutes.
When you blindly follow the herd, you shouldn't complain about the end results. You let the herd decide your fate.
I watched the fireworks, then hung out until 11 at a bar with really cool people. Me and my friends got onto a practically empty train and we got back to East Falls Church in about 20 minutes. There were 5 cabs sitting there waiting for passengers when we got out of the station, too.
