It was a lovely morning in October, and I was in Vienna, VA visiting my lovely aunts with my mother. We were taking the metro in to downtown DC. My Aunt Shari, in her regular fashion, came downstairs with the Empire Carpet Bobblehead, hereon known as EM (short for Empire Man). The adventures that ensued are documented below.
