XML/RSS feeds for Xmas... So, I realize that I've been dreadfully lazy with regard to the season this year, and I suppose I should try to help fix that... My list of RSS feeds worth watching...

Somebody tried to blow up Shep! Explosions on Denison's Campus
Okay, so the "explosions" in questions, were likely 2-liter bottle bombs made with dry ice, but still. I used to LIVE in that building, about 30 feet from where those went off. Creepy. Not cool. |
On Chefly Business I read an article this morning that Tiff sent me, it written by Mark Furstenberg, who runs The Bread Line over on Pennsylvania Avenue and serves a variety of sandwiches and soups and salads that are unique, tasty and inexpensive. They are without doubt the best $10 lunch place in the town. I absolutely adore their french fries and their sausage sandwich. For a while, when I worked at WestLake up on Eye St., life was pretty miserable. I wasn't getting paid jack, I had to be the first man in, and often the last man out, I was getting up before 6am to get on the Metro and be at my desk well before we opened so I could set out the bagels, the drinks, the workbooks and texts and the sign-in lists. It was boring, menial and crappy. But every once in a while, my boss Dan, who didn't like working there too much either, and I would walk down 18th to Penn and turn up toward the White House. We'd get the sausage sandwich, served with marinara and red peppers and onion on a ciabatta roll, and their home made, properly done french fries with home made ketchup, and have a divine lunch. Sitting in that restaurant, in the back room, or in the front on the sidewalk, for an hour each week, I'd love life. And for that, I had Mark Furstenberg to thank.
Now, go read his Journal for this week. |
