		<title>Don’t Crap Your Snow in the Street</title>

My neighbor crapped his snow into the street
Originally uploaded by carlweaver

My neighbor decided that the snow-clearing job at his house was not good enough, so he crapped some into the street for good measure. Because that’s where it belongs or something, I guess. I don’t know why. It’s just plain annoying.
People, if you need to [...]]]></description>

Fire exit? Really?
Originally uploaded by carlweaver

I saw this while walking to lunch yesterday. A building at Thomas Jefferson St. NW and the Canal in Georgetown has a set of stairs marked from the outside “Fire Exit. Not an Entrance.” Good idea. People in the basement need to get out when there’s a fire, right? Well, [...]]]></description>

Parking in the snow route
Originally uploaded by carlweaver

Okay, people. It says &#8220;snow route&#8221; on the sign and the radio stations are warning people that there&#8217;s a snow emergency in the District. Even our very own lovable Tom Bridge warned us that parking here could lead to some heavy fines. Is $250 worth the cost of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Top Five Ways to Get Killed After a Craptacular Snow Storm</title>
		<description><![CDATA[

Walk in the street.
Walk in the street two abreast.
Drive too fast on slick roads.
Ride your bike like a jackass in these conditions.
Cross the street against the light.

Let’s be careful out there, folks. Safety is a shared responsibility. I have seen blatantly stupid behavior out there. If you are driving, slow down and accept that traveling [...]]]></description>

Notice how all that snow is piled on top of this person’s car? Don’t be like that. When you can get out and drive, be sure to clean the snow off your entire car. Two things can result from this type of halfway done snow removal. First, big chunks of ice and snow can fall [...]]]></description>

fire hydrant
Originally uploaded by Allee574

Sure, some of the fire hydrants in the district don’t work and we don’t necessarily know which ones, but emergency responders will need to know where these are and have quick access to them in the event of a fire.
Don’t the local governments pay people to do this? Verily they do, [...]]]></description>

That&#8217;s kind of how it looks, right? Santa looks like he is beating the poor reindeer senseless, maybe clubbing his head with whatever is in his grubby little mitt.
