Diamond Cab Co., Washington DC

I worked as a messenger in Washington DC in the 1980s, and hopping in and out of cabs (and the metro train) was a constant, ubiquitous activity. If you rode cabs enough you would get to know, in a small way, certain drivers, because you'd remember them and they'd remember you. Cab drivers who have interesting stories, opinions, and lifes, is probably only matched by the much smaller coterie of limo drivers who have served in Washington DC over the many decades of transporting the important (or those who need to look important) passengers of the District. They too have very interesting stories.
