- It's difficult to think of a convoluted scare story more tailor-made for local TV news than this one. If only the virus also killed your household pets and caused traffic delays that contributed to the delinquency of your teenage daughter.
- D.C. is finally getting wheelchair-accessible taxis this month, via WaPo. Long, long overdue.
- The headline says it all: "Diapers on the street -- Not cool."
- Meant to mention this yesterday: best of luck to IMGoph as he shutters bloomingdale (for now) and takes up guest posting at Frozen Tropics. He also says he's at "work on establishing something new in trinidad soon," which we look forward to seeing.
- Mayor Fenty reportedly promised the D.C. Council that he will replace Ximena Hartsock at DPR by Dec. 1.

As above; good luck with your endeavors IMG.
Good lord you are up early, even by my standards.
I think most people in DC are up by 6:30, if not much earlier. I overhead a coworker on the phone with her child today:
"Hi sweetie, you're up late today! Guess how long Mommy's been up!" ... "Close-- 5 and a half hours!"
This was at 8:30 am. No wonder there are so many accidents on our roads.
I typically get up between 3:30 and 4:00 AM. I am on extended leave now as I had my knee replaced last Monday.
I wish you a speedy recovery, sir.
...typically get up between 3:30 and 4:00 AM
Ugh, HOW?!?! I plan on avoiding any lifestyle in which this is a reality. I like the idea of having time to accomplish things before work, in theory; in practice, however, I never get up before 7:45, 3 separate alarms be damned.
No alarms for me, but I like to get to bed before nine. I am in the office at 6:30, work until 4:00 and have every other Friday off.
Thank you DPR. So far so good. Gotta love good private health insurance. In-home physical therapy for two weeks, then three more in the PT shop. Six weeks convalescent leave. I'm hating life. Actually it doesn't hurt too much. They start PT the morning after surgery, with full load bearing, I was walking the halls.
Gosh, I had no idea you were an old geezer!!!
Snow on the roof, fire in the belly.
Oh and 'A man is as young as the women he feels'.
Today is my Birthday.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
Why, thank you Liz.
Diapers in the street is disgusting. Why not just take a dump in the tree box? As a parent and applier and remover of these things there is no excuse for the lack of proper disposal of these things. We wrap those puppies up, bag em and make sure that they go into a trash receptacle that has a lid. They need to be treated for what they are bio-hazardous human waste. Rats and alley cats get into them and make a horrid mess if they are not secured. This was probably done by the same type of person who takes their fast food waste puts it back in the paper bag and leaves it in a tree box.
True.
I was waiting for the Chinatown Metro elevator a week or so ago, standing and waiting with me were two school age girls. One girl had a fast food drink in her hand, I'd say 3/4 full. The elevator door opened and she tossed her cup up in the air and it opened as it hit the sidewalk.
Too bad she had a friend with her. Had she been alone I would have smacked her in the back of her head.
Tom?
*taps watch impatiently*
Exactly. It's not a holiday for some of us. If distraction isn't up soon, I'm going to have to work. So there.
Would the Trojan Horse story be in example of a solution looking for a problem? Or is it a MS marketing ploy?
And oh yes, the innanets does contribute to the delinquency (if that's what you want to call it) of your teenage daughter.
