Washington D.C. Lengthens Bar Hours During Inaugural Period

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2008/12/02/AR2008120203063.html?hpid=topnews

“In the mood to celebrate President-elect Barack Obama’s inauguration at a D.C. bar? For four days in January, they’ll be open 24 hours a day.

Under emergency legislation approved by the D.C. Council yesterday, any District establishment with a liquor license, including restaurants and nightclubs, will be allowed to serve alcohol until 5 a.m. — three hours later than usual — and serve food round-the-clock from Jan. 17 until the morning after Obama’s swearing-in on Jan. 20.”

I guess I’ll respect the emergency legislation and have at least one cocktail in a bar at 4:55 am.

Conor, thank you.
