Tiffany Bridge: Tiffany Baxendell Bridge moved to DC in a fit of quarterlife crisis pique. When the emotional dust settled, she realized she had grown into her new home quite well. Tiffany is an Internet enthusiast and an incurable smartass. She can usually be found rabble-rousing on the latest flavor-of-the-month social networking service, or telling jokes at any of DC's finest open mic nights. Read why Tiffany loves DC.

Thanks for the shout out! A friend of mine told me that DC has launched an initiative to reduce the number of pedestrian versus car incidents. I not only saw this at 14th and P, but also at an intersection in Woodley Park where a car was pulled over and ticketed for stopping in the middle of a crosswalk. I poked around the web for more info, but couldn’t find any releases. But I will definitely be cognizant when I’m crossing from now on!
