Hello!

I moved to DC in October, 2005 and lived on 16th & U for about a year and a half. Then I moved to Mt. Ranier for 6 months. Boring! Plus I had to drive everywhere. I moved to Adams Morgan about a month ago and I'm loving it!

Welcome! I'm actually in Mt. Pleasant, but do spend time in AM. There's the occasional happy hour called here on this list, so I would expect one before too much longer.

Concerning that Target: I have very mixed feelings about it. The Giant nearby has already caused two local Mt. P. groceries to close, and I fear the Target will have wider impact on the small shops here. I also expect traffic to become truly horrible, as that huge center is going in with zero changes to the nearby roads or traffic patterns. The thing I like about Mt. P and AM is that I can walk (well, used to be able to walk, before my favorite grocer closed) to just about everything I needed. I'll be surprised if most of the funky dollar stores survive long, and I'm concerned we'll just get chains moving in.

Enough of the gloom! Welcome again!

hey there tribe
i am living in mt pleasant for almost a year, back in d.c. after a 3 year hiatus to central america. would love to meet fellow tribers in the hood as well. anyone interested in a get together this weekend at a local bar?
also, regarding the target: heeeeeeeelll no am i happy bout it. this neighborhood has no need for a dcusa, as we have plenty of locally owned mom and pop stores providing for all. my apologies for the strength of this opinion, and by no need do i mean to offend, but i think i died a little (and so did the majority of the local community and business) when this megaplex opened. (although being a nurse i can't argue with the 4 dollar perscription drug list...)
that said, who's down for drinks? may i suggest the raven, my charming local dive bar?

Now I want to introduce to everyone in Washington D.C., Los Angeles and America
and the entire wide world my running mate Jeff Fisher.

Just come to NYC and meet him if you like or you can talk to Mary Elizabeth (Tipper)
and I instead or both of us if you prefer.

You all need to Google Al Gore Jeff Fisher HBO RECOUNT Chicago Suntimes

Lets all combine our efforts to get rid of George W Bush by July 1st, 2008 or sooner.

You missed Jeff in great action today. He marched in a parade up 5th Avenue
saying to tens of thousands of parade watchers

Google Jeff Fisher Liberty Freedom Al Sharpton Jesse Jackson

Jeff also wrote a great Google at a Storefront on plywood with a Bic Pen
(Interpol reported this to me and Tom Heneghan) at 52nd Steet E
and Fifth Avenue also.

Can you believe how stupid Hillary and Barack look now!!!!!!!!!!!!

Jeff also met several Mormons from Utah that are contacting Mitt Romney
to jump back in the race to create a ticket of Romney-Paul for the GOP.

Oh! You better Google Jeff Fisher Dream Team Jane Bowell Madonna Alicia Keys Wembly Stadium World Peace

Thank you all for watching HBO Recount and spreading the word also.

Let's all work as a great American Team and end the war ASAP
and let Jeff get all his peace plans going.

Again Mary Elizabeth and I thank you

As Jeff says "Its time to Rock and Roll"

I know Raul and Fidel Castro will be very interested in meeting Jeff.
I would love to see them along with Hugo Chevez and Daniel Ortega
come ASAP to NYC to meet Jeff in Central Park.

Please spread the word to all your friends.

Signing off to all who never gave up on me.
