Missile batteries surround D.C.

So jeeps outfitted with Avenger anti-aircraft missiles are surrounding the Nation's Cap. I'm in Kansas City right now to fly home to D.C. tomorrow night; maybe I should stay in the Heartland where I guess the chance of getting hit by a terrorist is less. But I haven't been home in two weeks, and I have a lot of records I need to listen to and I have this party to go to on Saturday. And Grand Theft Auto 3. If I can't play Grand Theft Auto 3 then They've already won.

I remember my mom telling me stories about how it felt to see the Capitol surrounded by machine gun nests back in the turmoil in the late 60s. Fear, unbelief, and a general sensation of how did it come to this? I wonder which is worse, seeing the machine guns nests or the missile batteries. Does it matter? God I hate these damn terrorists.
