00:10
and it's no way that you can get to Takoma Station.

They got all of the furniture or whatever was burning in the apartment in the middle of the street.

They want to make a light on tulip.
00:21
They're moving all these vehicles so I could get past.
00:23
Uh,

principal.
00:26
Make the, yeah, make the right on tulip and then make the left on Maple Avenue, okay?
00:31
And then we just gave instructions on how to get around outside of using Carroll Avenue.
00:41
Instructions where?
00:43
Through the airways, ma'am, on the radio.
00:46
It's only two people working right now, and we haven't had time to put the D-D-word into the system yet.
00:52
It's okay. So you said make a right-on,
00:56
I didn't hear it on the radio, so it's okay.
00:59
So make a right-on cooler and make a left-all-ma-half.
01:04
That is correct, and that'll bring you back down to Carroll.
