Many choices in Eden Center or Hong Kong Palace (Sichuan Chinese) nearby or Present on Rt. 50. There's also Ethiopian restaurant Meaza on Columbia Pike just off of Rt. 7 plus several other Ethiopian ones in the Bailey's X-Rds portion of Falls Church on George Mason.

HOOS you will not have a problem without a car--several dcilxors are car-free (see: I DIED, daria-g, TOMBOT [RIP]). Zipcar always an option if you need temporary wheels.
I will be out-o-town when you first arrive, but back on Nov. 3. Pencil me in, yo!

Then early Saturday morning, this news out of Georgetown University in the heart of Washington: Police discovered a suspected meth lab inside a freshman residence hall and evacuated the building. Later in the afternoon, officials said the drug being produced in the dorm was actually Dimethyltryptamine (DMT), a hallucinogen.

I was on campus for most of the day and didn't even know about this! Although I spent all morning in the hospital way on the other side of campus and then most of the afternoon taking a nap in my car. Still, so exciting!

On CNN coverage I saw a number of anti- Fox News signs including "Fox is my comedy channel; the comedy channel is my news channel." Tuesday's votes and media coverage will likely show that Stewart's goals of sanity and civility will not be met.

Hi all! I am back from Mexico (not as exciting as Japan, but hey TACOS).
I am up for FAP and in fact have rejiggered my schedule today so that I could actually make it into the city during actual happy hour hours.
Big Hunt? Has a HOOS been to a Big Hunt yet? It is the scene of many a night of olddcilxdc good times. Someone pick a time, yo.
