eh, it's been around for a long time, glad to finally see it get recognition outside - coincidentally saw it in use on a flyer in new york for the first time last week. a musician i'd never heard of but the venue was fairly well-known, santos' party house maybe.

I got no problem with the term - been seeing "RUN DMV" tshirts around since way before the current wave of RUN DMC takeoffs, and it's nice for the hip hop scene to have something that actually unites it rather than having to shout out Lanham or wherever.

Of course, I'm pushing for the use of "Lower Chesapeake Bay Watershed", if y'all could help that catch on it would be much appreciated.

During Mayor Adrian M. Fenty's tenure, the District Department of Transportation apparently has gone after only one resident for violating the city's height limit on fences: D.C. Council Chairman Vincent C. Gray.

"We didn't find any others," said the department's Freedom of Information Act officer, Diana G. Jordan, in response to a request from The Washington Post to review citations.

I am (rather self-aggrandizingly) proud not to have had any cupcakes during their current hype. And I went to Good Stuff a few weeks ago; it wasn't bad but I'd rather go to Five Guys.

so Alexandria is nice but, yeah, yuppieville. I passed an interesting looking coffee shop yesterday but I can't recall the name. I haven't braved the bus or the metro yet, but a route planner says it will take 3 buses to get to the nearest cinema, which I think is only about 2 miles away. absurd.

Misha's was my guess too. I am appreciating the nature near me (hello wildlife preserve!) but where I live is not convenient for public transport, hence I am getting a car soon (for real this time).

But what we were excited about is free pho dogs from the kitchen all night long. We love the pho dogs -- beef or tofu hot dogs that are placed in a spicy pho broth and topped with cilantro, basil, banh mi-style slaw and both hoisin and sriracha. So why are they free?
