Like swallows returning to San Juan Capistrano, Reston's Fake Downtown Gritty Urban Core was home to the perennial crowds that flocked to the Apple Store on Friday to pick up a moderate upgrade to a year-old product a magical device called the "eye Pad too" or something like that. Call us old fashioned, but we still do all our web logging on the ZX-81 that got us through 7th grade, the end.

  1. Sometimes I wonder if the Apple store and the restaurants are the only stores open in the Reston Town Center. They are the only ones that ever get any business, particularly on a Saturday afternoon in the winter.

  2. I just wonder how many of the people in that line are federal employees or federal contractors, who might not have a source of income after Friday unless Congress gets off their lazy butts and comes up with a workable compromise.
