This $1,900 a month leased Navigator (now 2 of 'em) for DC City Council member Kwame Brown will undoubtedly be used as a political weapon again the city as a whole(although I'm not sure why DC taxpayers are paying for either of them)

TBD.com, the much-touted local-news Web site, will reorganize its news staff, change its focus to arts and entertainment and lose about a third of its 36 staff positions.

Under the reorganized structure, some TBD employees will be reassigned to work on a second Web site, WJLA.com, which is also owned by TBD's parent company, Allbritton Communications of Arlington.

Welp.

Looks like editor Wemple and the former Cp arts writers are still employed at tbd

Museum of Women in the Arts: "Drawn from Bank of America's renowned collection of international photography, Eye Wonder features more than 100 works by a wide array of artists, including Berenice Abbott, Margaret Bourke-White, Rineke Dijkstra, Gisèle Freund, Candida Höfer, Graciela Iturbide, Dorothea Lange, and Hellen van Meene."

Capital Swamp: The DC Resource Thread

Welcome? Whereabouts are you residing?

uh I meant Welcome!, not Welcome?

Thanks?! I'm in Bethesda, renting an accessory apartment in one of the residential neighborhoods. Everything pretty groovy so far.

I lived in Bethesda when I first moved to the area--convenient place to live, but I encourage you to make the leap over into DC proper at some point!

HAI QUINCIE

dc united home opener on saturday night, if any TRU FUTBOL WARIERS are so inclined - they were the worst team in the league last year but i had a blast going all summer

(note to non-TRU FUTBOL WARIERS: dc united games are also a convenient framing device for "let's drink as much beer as possible in the parking lot and drunkenly insult the columbus crew for two hours")

thanking a hoos for this image. i have just learned of the wapo peeps show contest.

Oh yeah, they're bringing that back

Vienna/Fairfax NOPE

was thinking about going to United's game tonight.

Weird question: I'm going to be on "Jeopardy" in a couple weeks (April 12), and I want to get a bunch of people together to watch it somewhere in DC. Does anyone know a bar that might let me do this? In exchange I can promise 20+ people who are gonna want to get drunk at 7 pm on a Tuesday.

or 7:30 pm i guess, technically

also all y'all are 100% welcome to join, even if the meetup spot ends up being "my living room"

hahaha what

did u win? does that mean you're buying drinks?

!!!!

TROO JEOPARDY WARIER

i can't say whether i did! (regardless, everybody on jeopardy gets at least $1000, but nobody gets paid until 3-4 months after their airdate, so i haven't seen a dime.)

it feels kinda goofy to either hijack jaymc's thread or create a new one of my own, tbqh, but it's been long enough - i taped in december - that i'm finally excited/non-apprehensive about watching it. (please do not read into this too much)
