Well I guess there are weirder places to get your news. The on-again off-again rail to Dulles romance seems to have entered a more serious phase of the relationship, and hopefully this will make it harder for these crazy kids to call it off again: Mark Warner just twittered* “At Dept. of Transportation w/ Sec. LaHood and Gov. Kaine for signing of Dulles rail funding agreement – finally!”
* I refuse to say ‘tweeted’
Don: Well I used to say something in my profile about not quite being a "tinker, tailor, soldier, or spy" but Tom stole that for our about us page, so I guess I'll have to find another way to express that I am a man of many interests. Hmm, guess I just did. My tastes run the gamut from sophomoric to Shakespeare and in my "professional" life I've sold things, served beer, written software, and carried heavy objects... sometimes at the same place. It's that range of loves and activities that makes it so easy for me to love DC - we've got it all.
