‘Kal Penn speaking at Inaugural Opening Ceremony’
courtesy of ‘JaneJGA’
Before catching 24 last night, we caught the last appearance of Kal Penn (famous for Harold & Kumar Go To White Castle) on House. As it turns out, Penn is coming to DC to work for the White House. He’ll be the associate director in the White House office of public liaison, with an office in the OEOB. Welcome to DC, Kal, we hope you love it here as much as we do.
Tom Bridge: Tom Bridge moved to the DC area in 2000 and hasn't looked back. Well, once. But it was his job that was broken, and not DC. Before founding We Love DC with several friends, Tom was the City Captain for Metroblogging DC for four years. He is a partner at Technolutionary LLC and works in computers for a living. He and his wife Tiffany live in Brookland. Read Why Tom Loves DC

I think it’s pretty cool, actually. Guy gives up his living making obscene piles of cash making people laugh for a while to take up public service. I think it’s cool.
Call us up, Kal, we love to play tour guide.

It’s the “new Washington,” Jas. Everything’s out of whack here. Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together… mass hysteria! ;)

At least he pays his taxes. I would consider it a step up from O’s other picks.

yes, this is good.
you take a reasonably successful person with a good career and a talent for entertaining people.
Now, move him to DC and give him some worthless job and make him a burden to society.
Pathetic.
