Daily Tirade

You know, Thomas Circle is a mess. The construction, which has been going on for what seems like 5 years, is a nightmare. The street is torn up, and driving your car around it is perilous at best because the street is ground down to nothing and the nice new brick crosswalks and sewer caps tower higher than the current road, so you bottom out (and not in a good way ;-) ) driving around it. I wonder who the GC is on the job... I love the internet, you can find a link to the press release pdf, should you be inclined, here.

Anyway, it seems as if "Civil Construction" is the GC. Funny, absolutely NOTHING on the internet about this company. Can't even google it. I bet you it is somebody's uncle's company or something. Oh yeah, second best thing about press release: Scheduled Completion Date: January 2, 2006. Um, darlings, you're a bit late.
