ANDREW SULLIVAN DOT COM

since he's gone mainstream media with his blog at time.com i ceased being a unique visitor at his website and it's been over a month since my last visit. haven't look back and not at all curious about his perspective anylonger.

JUST BECAUSE

i'm attracted to guys my age and size does that make me a chubby chaser? alright farouk, make some smart remark like me being the same size as aretha franklin at the kennedy center honors. i love you too honey. and you can have your $200. dollar an hour hookers too.

and what's with MSNBC after 10 pm? all they show are prison reruns...wassup with that? i guess they do it it to remind us to lock our doors.

IRAQ COURT UPHOLDS DEATH SENTENCE

when will it happen, it must be within 30 days?

DISTURBING THOUGHT

bush is said to be in texas rethinking iraq. rethinking? for that to happened he'd have to have an origional thought and i'm not sure that is possible.

MORE GREAT ACTING

thanks farouk for sending this clip. do you know this guy? the way he's gotta grip on the bottle of jack is funny. i guess this might be a jackoff flick trailer...i honestly dont know.

NANO HITLER

i'n not sorry for calling president george w bush NANO HITLER, because that'w what he is. i'm so sick of that bastid, i'm embarassed to call myself a republican, well ok...almost. i think perhaps he's just as insane as Hitler and as sefishly arrogant. who knows what condi has to say about this. he sure is reckless with other childrens lives.

and i've decide not get purchase a nano, shuffle or any mp3 devices. why? becuase i enjoy talking to people on the bus and in crowds. perhaps if i traveled more...but at this time i dont need one and that's ok.

EISENHOWER SUCKED

well he didn't really say it that way but farouk told me that civil rights legislation was slowed down under eisenhower and would have progressed faster with a president stevenson. farouk we will never know...all we can do is speculate. actually farouk the fifties were really a triumphant time in american culture and art. the armed forces were already integrated and with eisenhower as president the transition of integrating the general population was made easier than if that commie lovin stevenson were president.

GRAND FATHER NINE X'S AGO

SAMUEL GORTON
First governor of PROVIDENCE PLANTATIONS of Rhode Island,
founder of Warwick, Rhode Island & transcendental philosopher.

Samuel Gorton is our immigrant ancestor. He was baptized on February 12, 1592 in the Cathedral Church, Lancashire, Manchester, England. He was probably born there in the Parish known as Gorton. His father was Thomas Gorton and his mother was Thomas' second wife, Anne. Samuel's parents were influential and well to do, "not entirely unknown to the heraldry of England," wrote Judge George A. Brayton, Justice of the Supreme Court of Rhode Island.

Samuel had private tutors who taught him the classics. His fluency in both Greek and Hebrew enabled him to study the Bible's original text.All around Samuel, the world was torn by religious wars. Samuel was caught in the unrest. He befriended a Separatist elder who later moved to Holland. The Separatists were the people who chose to separate themselves from the Church of England; some were eventually known as Pilgrims, others were known as Puritans. Samuel Gorton was neither a Pilgrim nor a Puritan. He was a nonconformist. He was a man of deep, strong feeling, keenly aware of every injustice inflicted on the humblest of God's creatures. An excellent preacher, he was also a profound thinker who, in his spiritual meditations, wandered off into infinity often forgetting his earthly surroundings. An articulate and passionate man, he was able to preach for hours at a time. A convincing speaker, Gorton spoke openly whenever he could get people to listen to him. His enemies complained about his charismatic language.

Searching for religious freedom, Samuel, his wife Mary, the first three of their eventual nine children, and Samuel's brother Thomas sailed to America aboard the Speedwell, landing in Boston in 1636.Samuel found the world of the Boston Puritans no better than the one he had left behind in England. He soon became involved in many disputes with the Puritan government in Massachusetts, so much so that they tried to imprison him. His every thought and word was an issue with the Puritan rules. Moving on was no new experience for the Gortonists. Each of them had been cast out of Massachusetts and most of them from other Rhode Island settlements. Gorton himself had been cast out of Boston, Plymouth, Aquidneck, and Newport before seeking refuge in Providence. By 1642, an English historian commented, "Gorton might almost be said to have graduated as a disturber of peace in every colony in New England." All of the settlers of Providence were outcasts from Massachusetts. Of all those who were banished because they dared to express opinions in conflict with the ruling hierarchy, Roger Williams is the most famous and Samuel Gorton is the most notorious. the Massachusetts Magistrates kept sending Gorton letters stating that the land was still under the rule of Boston. The magistrates even charged Samuel with blasphemy and burned the family home. They arrested and jailed him. He headed to England. He left his family for three years and presented his written manuscript, "Simplicities Defense Against a Seven Headed Policy," London, 1649 (a copy of this is in the U.S. Library of Congress).

Finally, Samuel was granted a royal charter with the help of the Earl of Warwick. Once he had the charter, he also got an order of safe passage and conduct given to him from the Earl. Upon sailing back into the Boston Harbor, he showed the magistrates the grant and they were very angry because they had to give Samuel safe passage back to Rhode Island. The charter also said that the Massachusetts government had to help Samuel set up his government. Never were they allowed to again interfere with Samuel Gorton. the town of Warwick was formed, and named after the Earl of Warwick. Records show that in March 1664, Samuel was still active and appointed Administrator of John Smith's will. Happily, he lived to see religious freedom secured to the colony in its Constitution.In 1649, Samuel Gorton was elected general assistant to the Governor, and in 1651, was elected the first President over the two towns Warwick and Providence, called the Providence Plantations. Mr. Gorton was from this date the first citizen of Warwick, and his name stands at the head of the Warwick Commissioners for several succeeding years. He was elected a Deputy Governor in 1664, 1665, 1666, and 1670.

The Massachusetts Magistrates had often denounced Gorton as an anarchist, a blasphemer and rogue. This was not the real Gorton. Gorton's moral character was of the highest caliber and though he differed from the Orthodox Puritans he was never a blasphemer. He was an independent thinker and a true champion of liberty. Throughout his life he was a close friend and devoted admirer of Governor John Winthrop.

The Gortonists beliefs have been described as a type of Christian Transcendentalism. The group believed Jesus Christ was divine, but they did not believe in the Trinity. They didn't think preachers should be paid, felt women were equal to men, were totally against slavery, and thought each individual had a right to read and study the scriptures for himself. Gorton staunchly believed that people should pay the Indians for their lands. Gorton's political creed may be stated briefly: true liberty can be found only within the framework of the law, which protects the civil right of the individual and the minority from the passing whim of the majority. He believed that government should be limited to civil affairs. He died on December 10, 1677 at the age of 85. Much has been written about Samuel and his chair is in the Daughters of the American Revolution Museum in Washington, D.C. Samuel can be called a forgotten founder of liberty.

WILLIAM ELLERY 2ND COUSIN 6 X'S REMOVED

for the record:

William ElleryRhode Island Co-signer of the Declaration of Independence

William Ellery was born in Newport, Rhode Island, to a wealthy mercantile family on December 22, 1727. The Newport in which William grew up was a unique community where despite many religious differences, there was a degree of toleration toward one another.The elder William Ellery, a Harvard graduate, prepared his son, William, to become a merchant, but also carefully prepared him for college. Young William entered Harvard in 1743. While he was not enthused about becoming a merchant, and entertained thoughts of being a lawyer, reality set in when he married Ann Remington on October 11, 1750, at 23 years of age. He married against his father's wishes, and it was soon clear that he must work to support his wife and family. His father melted some when his first granddaughter was born the following year.A series of events in 1764, changed William Ellery's life forever. In March of that year his father died. Six months later his beloved Ann also passed away. William returned from Cambridge to Newport.Ellery joined the Whig party, and became active in politics. He had inherited some money from his father, and he took this opportunity to study law. His name appears as a member of the General Assembly in the year of the Stamp Act repeal. He is now a leading member of the Sons of Liberty in Newport. The year is 1766. He has been a widower with six children for two years. On June 28, 1767, he marries for the second time. His second wife is a distant cousin, Abigail Carey, with whom he has ten children.When the delegates to the Continental Congress convened in Philadelphia in March 1776, Samuel Ward, Ellery's old friend, died of smallpox. Ellery was the choice to succeed him. As the signers gathered to affix their signatures to the Declaration, it was said that Ellery stood where he could watch their expressions. Of the 56 signers, nine died of wounds or hardships during the war, five were captured, brutally treated and imprisoned, several lost wives and sons, one lost his thirteen children, two wives were brutally treated, and twelve had their homes burned. William Ellery's property was burned while the British occupied Newport. He did, however, return after the war, and apparently recovered financially. He lived nearly 93 years, dying on February 15, 1820. He was interred in the Coggeshall Cemetery at the corner of Victoria and Coggeshall Avenue in Newport. Later, he was given a tomb in the Common Burying Ground on Farewell Street.

THE REPUBLICAN FRINGE

as a gay republican who happens to be an enrolled democrat it's fun to watch the republican party work it's way through to the 2008 campaign. the radicals like Frist, Allen, Brownback wont stand a chance in the general. i said last night that it will be a mccain/guliani ticket, they will win in november '08 and mccain will die in office and guliani will become president.

Gwyneth Paltrow-Why do you hate us?

Well she is at it again from her "adopted" beloved London. She has gone on a tirade to a European paper about how dumb all Americans are. According to Paltrow the Brits are so much more civilized and intellegent. She said that Americans are so obsessed with money. I guess she missed the class where they talked about London being one of the worlds financial centers. Hey Patrow we've only had a constitution since 1776. As one of the youngest democratic republics around we haven't done half bad. Wise up madam.

CRIME VIOLENCE AND POLICING IN THE UNITED STATES

We live in a violent society, I acknowledge this. Why do we live this way, some folks say it's been this way since the beginning of time, remember Cain and Abel? However, to me there is difference between this act and cities in America having hundreds and thousands of murders committed every year. I am not going to mention the numerous violent assaults. Why is this, we are an affluent, educated society that has embraced modernity? Yet, there is a hardcore element that has no regard for life and liberty. This faction has easy access to handguns (thanks NRA and reckless members of Congress). Yes, I am aware of the Second Amendment to the Constitution that states that in order to have a well regulated militia, Americans have a right to bear arms. There is a difference between this amendment and every Tom, Dick and Harry having access to these weapons of mass destruction. When you try to justify the rampant selling of handguns, etc., also take a look at the FBI statistics of the yearly handgun murders. If you think this is not a problem, then maybe we are not so civilized and modern at all.

The British People need to wake up

Hey Brits,
What is happening in your country? Have you become so engrossed in political correctness that you risk losing your country to radicals. You have allowed untold numbers of immigrants from Pakistan, North Africa, India to infiltrate your country. Many are saying that they want a better life, however they come to England, wanting to change your society. Even the children of these folks born in Britain do not cherish British citizenship. You have had a wave of incidences recently that are clearly anti-British. From the bombings on the tubes and buses to the attempted blowing up jetliners over American cities. So-called Imans or Mullahs are preaching death to Britain and America in your parks and public spaces. You also have recently a Russian being poisoned/murdered in London (yes I do believe the corrupt, contemptible government of Vladimir Putin is involved), come on wake up! Yet you Brits complain about the wait (for security clearance purposes) to enter the U.S. I am relieved that passports are now required. If a massive terrorist attack, is carried out in this country having being planned and initiated in the U.K., it will most detrimentally effect our countries relations. How do I know this, because I am an American?

The draft, bring it back

Yes, Absolutely Charlie Rangel I agree a draft in the United States is needed now not later.
I am sick and tired of running into young men who don't want or know how to talk about anything other than hedonistic pleasures. We do not have the luxury of having vast numbers of young people concerned with onlyMTV, BET, Playstation 3, clothes, sports, and cars. Many are spaghetti-spined, weaked-kneed know nothings, who cannot even communicate properly. Living in this country is a privilege and all need to contribute to the Framers intent in creating this Representative Republic. Remember that most of the men who created the Articles of Confederation leading to the Declaration of Independence in the 1700's were in their twenties. It is not fair that only certain men and women are volunteering for military service, while others are sitting here doing absolutely nothing in defense or support of this country. Yet, everyone is benefiting from the service that the men and women in the US military are provided in support of our freedom. My thought is if these young people are not going to volunteer willingly, they need to be drafted. This will include all racial and socio-economic categories. This will go a long way in reversing the narcisstic, materialistic and selfish zombies that are being created among American youth.

A WIN IN THE BATTLE

from dcwatch.com:

Councilmember Carol Schwartz introduced a motion to table the mayor's bill to divest the city of the Martin Luther King, Jr., Library, and she and Councilmembers Barry and Gray outvoted the two supporters of the mayor's bill, Councilmembers Patterson and Mendelson. Tabling this bill is only a temporary victory, because the politicians who want to loot this city of its most valuable assets to give them to their influential supporters are in a strong position, and they don't pay attention to the citizens who are fighting to protect and preserve our city's treasures.

last week Cropp was telling the public the justification for the pay raises of council members. they repeat the same talking points:
because the government functions as a city, county and state government functions she stated. that is such a lame excuse, no wonder she got rejected at the polls.

i've got to laugh about Fenty and best practices and bringing into government the best and the brightest.

next week we'll have another example of government gutless wonders at work. the vote to lease the rights of the MLK for 99 years is what i'm talking about. the council of the district of columbia couldnt give a crap about fixing anything. they can't even get the buses to run ontime.

Top Ten reasons why illegal immigration is a threat to our way of life:

10. Proliferation of foreign flags being flown in US and in some cases
American flags being burned.
09. Sacrificed goats and various other animals due to rituals being performed in Adams Morgan, etc.
08. Ethnic fiedoms and enclaves being established in certain neighborhoods and speaking
native languages and refusing to learn English.
07. Identity theft mainly involving social security numbers.
06. Demeaning the institution of marriage to obtain US citizenship fraudulantly.
05. Degradation of what it means to be a patriotic American and earn citizenship legally.
04. The ability of Mexico, Latin America and other countries to ignore their responsibility to improve their
economies and way of life for their poor.
03. Gang-related violence and the corresponding costs to jail felons.
02. Costs associated with the healthcare, and social services. etc, required for the uninsured and unemployed.
01. Terrorism (remember Sept 11th).

Oh, by the way before I get responses, I am not against immigrants (I am against law breaking). I do believe the US government has created this problem, and needs to fix it. Everyone in America has to abide by the law and no one gets a free pass, according to the US Constitution. Try going to Mexico illegally and see what the consequences are, and the last time I checked they called themselves a democracy.

LOL. baseball's butt boy: mark touhey, you did good!

this reminds me of the downsized MLK that the city approved 30 years ago. Mies wanted a fifth floor and escalators but instead we got stairways and no fifth floor. and now the new library advocates are saying it's obsolete. well, it was dumbed down and obsolete since day one.

CAR SMASHES INTO BRICK ROW HOUSE

that section of florida avenue i'm quite familiar with. it's a heavily frequented cross town shortcut. florida avenue was the boundary road defining the old city. so when it cuts through ledroit there's a sharp angle southeast/northwest. i suspect the drunk driver got disoriented by the intersection at florida and 6th.

update. the van driver was smashed and rammed into a stopped vehicle at the traffic light.

GOD DID IT, DON'T BLAME ME

fron the Bennington Banner comes this:

Up in Vermont, a bill might be reintroduced in the legislature called The Seed Bill. The bill was designed to protect organic farmers from being sued when patented genetically modified seeds accidentally spread onto their property.
There have been a number of lawsuits in the past few years where corporations have sued farmers for growing patented genetically modified seeds without permission, even if the seeds landed on the farmer's property by an act of nature.
Some also fear that organic farmers, whose crops became tainted by the altered product, would sue the users of genetically modified seeds.

"It made me angry that here's someone preaching about gay marriage and going behind the scenes having gay sex," Jones said.

hear and now question: can't somebody be against gay marriage and have gay sex? or is it the assumption...if your're gay your're automatically for gay marriage. i find it very odd that a hooker/hustler would be a gay marriage advocate. ok, hate me now.

--Most current outrage of the Bush Administration and the Republican Led Congress

Well Folks,
That bastion of morality and civility (yea right) is at it again. Per today's NY Times this administration and it's rubber stamp Republican Senate has decided that the Special Inspector General for Iraq Reconstruction will be phased out. Stuart Bowen, apparently has embarrassed government sanctioned thieves one time too many. This reckless action is to take effect 10/01/07. I suggest all citizens call their respective Senators and Representatives to express opposition. We cannot let Halliburton , Kellogg Brown Root and the other Corporations determine how , when and why funds are spent in Iraq. Some Senators (Republicans) are claiming that they did not realize this provision was included in the appropriations bill. Well sorry, Senator if you didn't know you should have known. Try reading the Congressional bills. And by the way, if any staffer is responsible for this I am for hauling them before a committee and leveling the most serious sanctions possible. Good job, Mr Bowen, we hardly knew ye.

Bravo John Kerry!

I am not a huge John Kerry fan. If anyone missed it, he basically advised young people to stay in school so that they do not have to wind up in a place and situation like Iraq. Well that brought out the right wing hitmen, who stated that he was calling the troops dumb and should apologize.


I am digging him today for these reasons:

1. not backing down one iota from that onslaught from cowardly armchair patriots.

2. defending your military service against critics (many of whom have not spent a single day in anybody's military- john mccain, nothwithstanding).

3. Not apologizing for something you are not guilty of. Let's face it, while I admire rank and file soldiers, their ranks are not swelling with rocket scientists.

4. And no, Presidential spokesman/Fox News Hack, Tony Snow, even though these men signed up for military service, they did not sign up for the hellhole that is Iraq today.

The Do Nothing Congress

Has anyone been watching the "Broken Government" series on CNN? A so-called international news network that I am not a big fan of. Well they nailed this one. Seems Senators and Representatives work only three three day workweeks and apparently yelled at the Congressional Leadership to approve this madness. They also have voted themselves seven pay raises in as many years while refusing to raise the minimum wage for poor people. My current mantra is " throw the bums out" Wake up people, we are losing our democracy. Well, I am off to Hunan Palace on Vermont for chinese carryout.

Orange Sr. (D-Ward 5) and Carol Schwartz (R-At Large). The cost for each council member was $7,500. Evans and Schwartz said they paid out of funds budgeted for the council."

well, isn't THAT special?...they can locate the $30,000.00 for a vacation to south africa but they can't locate the $30,000.00 to fix the lights in 2 parks in our under serviced neighborhood.

SHOT IN FRONT OF MOHAWK 10:00 PM

A man was shot a few minutes ago in front of 436 M St NW. It appears to be an attempted robbery. They appeared to be walking home in the rain. Two african american males apparently approached the couple from behind. One fired a shot to the front of the man's thigh and the two ran south into the alley. The man was imobilized. The woman said the robber was fairly young and wearing a black and white bandana. Police and EMT were quickly on the scene. The EMT removed the victim's pant leg and carried him into an ambulence.

ANC 2C MEETING CHINATOWN

50 in attendance. 10 of the 50 were lawyers. most citizens were from the Chairman's Single Member District and his supporters. The lawyers did not leave with what they wanted. they were instructed to go back to the community for support instead of expecting the ANC to rubber stamp whatever the lawyers wanted.

the chinese community is not agreeing to the creation of a glass wall cutting off chinatown. the chinese refused the delivery and now the developer is scrambling. the mayor of chinatown dc, dwayne wong is having none of the developers BS. first of all, the developer got an upgrade in a land swap and now he presents an inferior solution to a challenging problem. chinese embellishments should not END at massachusetts avenue northwest.

the yale steam laundry wants to raise the elevation of the penthouse over the existing historic building 15 feet and expected the ANC to just roll. it is important to note here that Chairman thorpe asked the lawyer for yale laundry if he has presented his case to the community and mr utz responded that he'd met with ANC 6C. chairman reminded lawyer that yale steam laundry is in 2C and there were problems with this application in the past. chairman reminded lawyer that 2C has the greatest weight in this case. lawyer agreed and said he'd meet with mount vernon community soon.

the biggest drama of the night came when the ANC voted to approve the UHOP request to purchase a recreational park and turn it into a parking lot and that became a discussion on dog parks. one citizen opposing the UHOP deal was declared out of order and another who favored the idea and name called a commissioner "sitting there looking stupid" wasn't declared out of order. the park isnt surplus property, yet. web cameras and tape recorders were not allowed at this public meeting. gee, i wonder why?

JURY DUTY

this isn't the standard jury duty notice. this is for a specific trial that will last 4 weeks and begin after Nov 27. what govenment official is going to on trial after Thanksgiving that will last until Christmas? the standard jury duty notice is for superior court. this court is the US District Court.

from hoyasaxa.com comes this news

MASN To Broadcast Colgate Game
9/27/06
The Mid-Atlantic Sports Network, available on regional cable and national satellite, has announced it will broadcast Saturday's Georgetown-Colgate game Saturday.
The game will be broadcast on a tape delay basis at 3:30 pm Saturday, following the Navy-Connecticut game. It is believed to be the first Georgetown football game broadcast on local cable TV. Three previous Patriot league games were broadcast on satellite-accessible cable channels since 2002, but none through local Washington area cable systems.

UPDATE: Colgate scored two touchdowns in the third quarter and took advantage of five Georgetown turnovers en route to a 31-7

PAINTED LADYS...YOU'RE ON NOTICE

from the current Intowner we read where recently the council of the district of columbia enacted amendments to the historic preservation law designating the Historic Preservation Review Board(HPRB) to author rules and regulations with expanded authority. they will decide what colors property owners may paint their property. some of these "san francisco" style painted houses may be grandfathered so get your designer colors applied because soon some "educated" know-it-all is going to ban purple/lilac/orange/cream/plum and apricot combinations.

i wish the congressional reviewers would strike these amendments because who wants the neighborhoods to lose their vibrant topical displays? or everything will look drab, boring and Restonesque.

BETTY FORD CENTER

althought i've never actually executed another human being it's a little sad to say au revoir to ann richards. she must have been a hoot when drunk but she's even funnier sober. i so much admire her courage and willingness to educate others about addiction and the importance and beauty of sobriety and doing it without a moralistic scold. boy do i resent the moralistic scolds from sinners.

anyway, tonights another crime meeting. this time at the united house of prayer and the subject is the shaw crime task force. 6 pm 601 M street nw.

every monday night at st. david's episcopal church is the weekly betty ford center alumni meeting. we meet at 8 pm the address is 5150 macomb street northwest. in the palisades neighborhood. we meet for dinner at the starland cafe(5125 macarthur blvd) @ 6 30 pm and then head over for a meeting. there's always room. great fellowship, great food at affordable prices.

OH HAPPY DAY!

why patterson lost. vince gray is truly a nice man, i mean how can u not like him? and his opponents meanness finally caught up with her. she makes leona helmsley an angel. i hope vince's victory tells us the trolley to the lily ponds along the anakostia will happen sooner than later. vince adopted the right tone in the palisades land use case and advocated for the neighborhood. he'll be a great council chair. too bad kathy didnt endorse fenty or maybe he didnt want to be associated with the queen of mean.


why the cropp failed. whoever directed her campaign never had the correct focus to begin with. we should have met the students who's lives she influenced while a guidance professional and teacher. then her campaign skipped over the school board years as if they were of no importance. she was setup to run for mayor by the establishment. when the mud started being thrown we'd had enough.

the fenty years will be highlighted with better service management and we need to tax income at it's source or get more from the feds because the older folks cannot take any more increases in local real property taxes.

phil mendelson doesnt cave. well, not too often. his opponent was a reinvented harold brazil sponsored by the local chamber of commerce. i'm happy 'tommy' thomas and tommy wells will be on council. both are compassionate and progressive even though wells favored chucking the MLK to a developer. 'tommy' thomas told me he will NOT be wearing the #5 and he WILL be answering his phone like his father did. atleast everytime i called to bitch about something harry thomas answered the phone :-)

jim graham. the little munchkin was the big winner last night. he endorsed fenty, gray and won renomination with 86% of the vote.

mary cheh. ward 3. we'll see if she's a stooge for GWU real soon. her opponent bill rice will land a spot with the fenty administration early on. i hope he doesnt start taking credit for being a service manager there also. paul strauss' treasurer is a hunk of a bear. too bad we can't vote for him. yet.

Democrat Primary Day

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/metro/elections/2006/primaries_dc.html

in DC, whoever wins the democrat party primary wins the general election . so the contest is really the primary. i voted at the MLK library at 1 pm. in the two years since we last voted the number of luxury units the have come online is remarkable. it's ALL luxury housing. not one unit of affordable in this neighborhood atleast.

WTWP-FM

i'd like to swing over to http://www.hawkanddoveonline.com/ on capitol hill for kathy patterson's victory party but parking there is a total bitch and i aint taken metrorail home at that hour.

i'm curious to know how all this afforable housing that everybody is talking about is going to be packaged.

FACE IT GIRL, IT'S OVAH

guess what time it is when carol schwartz endorsed linda cropp? it's ovah linda! bu-bye

the BALDUCCI'S that never was

whoever believed balducci's would ever commit to the penn quarter neighborhood needs a reality check or a little more time living in the eastend of dc. ofcourse they did an extensive market review and consulted they're psychic's. most of the residents either have cars, vespa's or accounts with safeway.com or peapod already. if they want booze, central liquor has been in downtown since the 40's. and there are several newstands, lottery outlets and CVS's existing.

jeff corwin ANIMAL PLANET

this is the host the animals at this house adore. jeff is one of the best physical comedic actors on TV. our little henry watches & loves his animal stories.

not steve irwin, the BGH(Bovine Growth Hormone) roided show-off that got himself killed. one look at irwin's physique and you can see he was on BGH and let me tell you there are plenty of veterinary doctors that will juice you up. it takes a lot to threaten a stingray and mr irwin's manager is doing a terrific job at controlling the story. i believe irwin provoked the animal for drama and didn't fully comprehend the nature of the species.

Patterson has horns, Wapost endorses vince gray

BIG LOL

like john wilson, mrs patterson will tell it like it is. she wont hold back and sugar coat reality. she IS like our junkyard dog. and we havent had one of those in awhile. it will be refreshing when she's elected chairman of council. she tells the truth and in this city, that is rare.

the wapost endorsement is more about the good old boy network and giving the chief of police whatever he wants without oversight or questions. thank god after patterson and fenty are elected this chief will GO away. in addition, meeting will be open to reporters. unlike currently,
where it's developers rule behind closed doors.

i like vince gray he should run for mayor someday.

congratulations betty!

and best wishes on you election as president of the trustee's board of the Provincetown monument and museum

http://pilgrim-monument.org/t3/index.php

better than georgetown...JUST SAY NO thank you

we have an opportunity to not duplicate the mistakes of georgetown. they dont have metro, we do. they have aggressive parking enforcement, we have NONE. it was kewl of the owner of the property at 5th and O to decide housing would be a better fit for her property than a restaurant. because changing the zoning in that instance would have been the excuse any gin mill could use to invade our the quiet residential community. nobody is more pro-business than me. but having claims of discrimination because of client marketing is an avenue that can make lawyers rich and hurt the serenity of the neighborhoods.

SHE LEFT US, WE DIDN'T LEAVE HER

FENTY CAMPAIGN

oh boy is THIS going to be a fun two weeks until the primary is over. the cropp campaign is slinging mud and dirt at our candidate right and left. but guess what folks? ..it aint stickin.

the sad part is that a nice person like mrs cropp listens to advisors who think voters are such idiots they can win with mud and dirt. i have more respect for the intelligence of the electorate than that.

on sunday(sept 3) night at 7 30 the team that brought down charlene drew jarvis is having another pre-primary election campaign party at the home of beth solomon at 440 m street nw. bring a guest. ALL are welcome.

“Ultimately, we just want to change what people expect,” Watson says. “We want to elevate the expectation of the type of venue that people deserve. We are working to blur the distinction between a neighborhood bar and an urban nightclub by taking the best from each to create a new genre of lounge.”
Along with his new genre of lounge, Watson says he hopes to see a new genre of customer.
“When you come here, you should look the part,” Watson says. “Take it seriously. We encourage people to have fun and play with fashion.”
Watson says he has selected a “knockout” staff of 30 out of 300 people who applied. The bar will specialize in “candy-themed” martinis and margaritas.
“We’re really excited about featuring our menu as well as our staff because a part of this venue is going to be coming from the scenery,” Watson says. “It’s the venue, it’s the staff, it’s the show.”

Party

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uqevmbY7SUc&NR

last night 80 guests danced, drank and ate at a breathtaking riverfront apartment with a view of all the monuments. french speakers, ebonic speakers, tennis players, shag dancers oh and the food. andrew was there. no, not THAT big old bottom andrew. the OTHER one. I havent seen him in ages. we drank cranberry juice, laughed, ate vegan plus a lot of brie. capitol file and the georgetowner covered the event so i hope my picture doesnt make it to the newsstand. andrew is 47, single, gay, down to earth and available. i'm so jaded nothing shocks me, even though he tried. i was home alone and asleep in bed by 11 45 pm.

who done it?

http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/content/article/2006/08/25/AR2006082500985_2.html

we have no idea who sent the 11,000 post cards when 5 term council member mrs jarvis got defeated do we? LOL

and colby, i'm so sorry but mrs jarvis and her family are doing even better now than as a mere council member and lets not forgot she's a PHD in nano-physiology so she didnt just fall off the back of the turnip truck. i voted for mrs jarvis in the 1990 primary for mayor because she was the smartest and most progressive. after that mrs jarvis became the water boy for marriott and that's when she had to be defeated and we gladly worked for adrian to win. so colby it wasn't the 11,000 post cards we sent that defeated mrs jarvis, it was the fact that she delivered a crummy motel 6 to georgia avenue and a taxpayer financed $600,000,000. convention center to downtown. she got fired by the voters.

campaign season in full swing

because this is a democrat town the real election is the democrat party primary. that election date is september 12. and now the mud balls are getting thrown by the desperate candidates. the mud balls thrown by vincent orange and linda cropp are hurting themselves more than the object of their wads of dirt. the mud aint stickin!
the wapost endorsement is soon and it appears mrs patterson will get the papers endorsement for council chair. this is good for transparency in govenment and open meeting rules. she will also challenge the police department and not give em a rubber stamp, like the current team in power does. there are so many picnics and parties now.
the french party is friday night, the blagden alley picnic saturday night and the bash at the temperance hall up in petworth on sunday. my future ex husband will be at a few of these. :)

FLIGHT RISK

we're going to DC jail in a little while to visit our neighbor, a retired Episcopal minister who is being held as a flight risk pending an investigation. he is being charged with conspiracy to manufacture and distribute crystal meth. that jail was too freakin much. i've never been to a joint like that before. the former priest was in protective custody and was brought to a cage where we chatted for 30 minutes via phone. although never visiting an insane asylum it must be something like this. everybody there claims to be innocent and they all rat on everybody else to reduce their sentences.

he still acts like a bigshot. the joint is filled with narcissists. i may go next week. strike that, i wont massage his ego by appearing. i will write letters to him. i dont want it to appear like i endorse his criminality either. it's outrageous that he would have so little respect for me that he'd have a meth lab next door and blow up my happy love filled home for his greedy addiction. he needs to be held accountable and if that means going to the slammer for 12 years then that's what it is. he's plea bargaining so i wonder what he's rating on everybody else?

1982 MERCEDES BENZ

24 years ago when i purchased this car from mercedes benz of san francisco the idea i might have the car today never entered my mind. we've been thru so much together. future ex-husbands left wing and right. betty ford. friends and others dead too soon. from san francisco to greenwich village, liberace's death in palm springs, provincetown & the lower cape and washington dc. motor trips to quebec city, hitting all the interstate diesel truckstops, bar harbor and little havana. and ofcourse bombing around georgetown. i'm not ready to let the old girl go. the automatic transmission runs so perfectly smooth. the roll down crank windows, didnt order cruise control, didnt order a sunroof. the excellent interior is mercedes vinyl and the body is very good. she's a classic 240 D. my perfect no frills machine. so when i brought her in for the motor mounts remove/replace job i wasnt sure how much longer i'd have her. well, i got her back the same day and she's running quiet with no shaking. and it cost 300 dollars including parts and labor. :) not bad for 258,000 miles!

crime emergency: a different view

so the park at new jersey and O is dark. the electrical system is fucked up. instead of spending the $50 thousand to fix it. the city will spend 1 million dollars to renovate the park.

the 400 block of O street goes nowhere. crosstown drivers utilize N or P streets. thieves and gangsters use N and P streets. so what is the logic to place a bullet proof camera across from a park where the lights dont work and the vehicle traffic is minimal? but yesterday we had all the politicans and big shot commanders and chiefs at the site to hold a news conference about the crime emergency and to bravo the installation of this $100K bullet proof camera.

the fact is: all we needed was the lights repaired. that's the most infuriating part of this dysfunctional government. WHO is steering? WHO is in charge?

it's noteworthy to say the renovation of the house next door that was occupied by the retired episcopal minister who's being held as a flight risk and charged with conspiracy to manufacture and distribute crystal meth is still on hold with a stopwork order in effect. of the 3 partners in the project 2 are in jail and 1 is dead.

i deeply appreciate the response from the GLLU unit of the Metropolitan Police Department quick response to my call for help. i suspect there was an open warrant and they were waiting for a call to execute it.

it's approaching 3 months and no construction. the contractors finally words were: "well i hope you like living next to a vacant shell." rather a vacant shell than a house of crystal meth freaks like we had before.

august 6 1968. we were only doing what was right. is THAT a crime? yes, we were dicking with the cops even back then. we didn't do it because it was pretty to be there. we took action because of the military/industrial insanity of our time. we were tear gassed for the first time at a demonstration protesting the WMD atom bomb that destroyed Nagaski and it's people at the 42nd street armory.

after the protest we all went down to the goldbug. pre-stonewall but it was in the pressure cooker. we were oh so bad, high on pot and acid. yes, that was us. :) the flower children of activism. we went into The Leatherman shop on christopher. jesus i thought...what is THIS all about? i would soon discover the anvil, everard baths and mineshaft.

that's the great thing when you dig simple food. so we're having vegetables and tofu with dipping sauces every day and all week. the vegetables change but the tofu stays the same. like today will be turnip greens with tofu and korean paste.

it's going to be like 102 today so we'll get the car washed, shopping and errands finished by 11 am and wind down this summer vacation by painting a wall so i wont have to do it this fall during the campaign. maybe i'll have a yard sale after the election to retire the campaign debt. :-)

9 grand fathers ago..grand father samuel gorton .

First governor of PROVIDENCE PLANTATIONS of Rhode Island, and founder of Warwick, Rhode Island and Christian Transcendentalist philospher.

The Narragansette indians were impressed that the Gortonists had survived their ordeal with the Puritans. Gorton became a magistrate at Portsmouth and tried to bring about more fair land distribution. 1645. That year he published his Simplicities Defence Against Seven-Headed Policy. In this and other works Gorton wrote that all humans are essentially divine and that conversion is apprehending this inner divinity and being willing to follow its guidance even against human authority. Those who understand God in Christ find divinity in all humanity. The divine spirit is equally near to saints and sinners, and Christ offers freedom. Gorton accused New England Puritans of establishing worthless idols and distracting people with fasts, the Sabbath, sermons, battles, churches, and officers. If Christ is king and ruler, then all other authority and government is superfluous. Justice is not administered by an officer but by every brother, rich or poor, ignorant or learned. Gorton criticized the privileged status of ministers, who praise the able and learned while burdening the poor with obedience and sins. He opposed slavery. No external education could reform one's life as well as Christ could, and women may prophesy as well as men. Gorton argued that the penalty of sin is not in the future but is the natural and inevitable result of an evil action. Heaven and hell are within.

BROOKE ASTOR

Rose Lane lived to be 101 and was a close friend of mine. clear mind, heart failure was the cause of death. one time visiting rose and i believe she was 100, rose said..let me show you what i CAN do. with assistance she got out of bed and with the help of her walker she made fast laps around the room.

we talked politics. rose was VERY independent politically. we were both pushing for anthony williams for executive when he was just a bean counter. that's how we met. she would tell me about growing up and President McKinley was in office when you are born. she was raised in massachusetts and educated there. rose was an african american and a republican. she hated woodrow wilson. and i can understand why.

woodrow wilson, it is well documented and known was a vile racist. he used the words of an ignorant racist alot. nigger this nigger that. this is the truth and i knew this before speaking to rose about her life and times. she liked herbert hoover very much.

she once told me that the only down side of making to 98 is that there's nobody left from your age group to talk with. after she became home bound i would visit occasionally. she lived the rosary.

every halloween night i would visit her family in their large dupont circle townhouse and of course we'd have coffee, talk politics and laugh while i'm in drag. she was soooo funny. i miss that friend.
