Spy38W 0 #2 April 24, 2002 F-ed up, but true. I was wondering, is it us as a society, them for giving us these thoughts, or the media for manipulating them into what we percieve?--Words I hate: Streamer, Horseshoe, Baglock... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dove 0 #3 April 24, 2002 OMG - How could you NOT go to Air & Space?!?!?Grew up in DC and I've never been to the White House. I was supposed to on a field trip in 3rd grade. We were in that horrendous line that looped around the grounds and we were acting like the 8 year olds we were. Mrs. Paul threatened that if we didn't behave she'd put us back on the bus. Yeah, right. Damn if she wasn't true to her word! Hehe! Glad you had fun! Say hi to my mom and dad for me!dove Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #4 April 24, 2002 I've been to just about every site in DC, having been there a few times for touristy stuff. Every time I go to the Smithsonians and I still haven't seen everything and never quite have the time too. I really need to spend a couple weeks up there so I can try to see my favorite monuments again and spend a lot of time in the muesem.

lazerq3 0 #8 April 24, 2002 I thought the changing of the guard at the "tomb of the unkown soldier" was pretty cool.....they change them I think every half hour, but by the time they go throughthe whole routine there only standing there for like 15 minutes!!!jason Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pilotdave 0 #9 April 24, 2002 Yep... I've been just about 10 miles north of DC for 4 years now and I've never done the white house but I've done Air and Space a bunch of times. I think I'm due for another visit too.Davehttp://www.skydivingmovies.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kmcguffee 0 #10 April 24, 2002 Dave, Are you going to the Old Guard or are you talking about Quanitco? Do they have jar he......I mean Marines in the Old Guard? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flyhi 24 #11 April 24, 2002 QuoteWashington Monument.Don't think it really looks like him. Maybe without the wig. Did you see the Albert Einstein statue across from the Viet Nam Memorial? Really cool. You stand in the very center of it and your voice will echo, no matter how low you whisper. Also good spots to hit, Capitol City Brewing Company (unofficially home of the $15.00 hamburger) and Bardoe's Rodeo. A brewpub so big, they have four zip codes. Fun city, if you know where to go. G-Town is great. flyhi Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AggieDave 6 #12 April 24, 2002 I'm talking about Quanitico, I'm not sure about the Old Guard.I do believe, if the planets align properly and Libo works out like I've heard, I'll be at Orange on the weekends...A human cannonball, I rise above it allUp higher then a trapeze, I can fly Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
