You're going to bless Our Nation's Capital (and my current homeland) with your presence this weekend? What are you doing? Where can I find you so that I may accost you and beg you to sign an autograph?

Lol. Anyway, I know some people down here who'd love to sit down and have an adult beverage with you. :)

Welcome to DC! I live here too. Believe it or not we have great nightlife! I too am curious about what brings you here. Are you aware that this weekend is Gay Pride weekend in our fair city? There is much to do and even more to see -- aging drag queens are hilarious!
On a not completely dissimilar note we have more than our fair share of hippies and commies needing destruction.

So, Dubya invited ya to DC to pitch your plan for world peace? SWEET!!! Oh, and if ya get the chance, hurt Daschle for us.

Go to the Irish Times bar across for the amtrack tain station, Frank. Thats where I always went when in DC. Hey, forgot to mention the other night, might do part of my honeymoon down in FL, so we could go see your place. Have fun in DC.

Going to be a real short trip without anytime for site seeing. Getting in Friday night and leaving Sunday morning, with Saturday all taken up with my friend's wedding.

You may be pressed for time, but I HIGHLY recommend you follow JpF's advice. Irish Times is excellent (it's where all the cute Catholic University girls go when they want to sin).

The place next door is great too, but I can't remember the name. It's an Irish bar as well, but of a very different type - it's the dark, dank one that the college kids stay out of cuz it's filled with old potato-farming farts just off the boat, and retired Marines. Guinness is Guinness wherever you drink it, but atmosphere adds considerably to the flavor.

Frank, try to get out if u can. Irish times is where Justin use to take me when he went to Catholic U.
Mike- is there some strange correlation between us Marines and drinking Guiness? Its usually what frank and me drink when hes in town.

Guinness is basically 10W40 that you can drink safely, and like Emporer Misha will tell you, it's all about the oiiillllllllll! What can I tell ya? Marines are all about the Guinness - I mean they should put the stuff in MREs. With the consistency of thin syrup and all those calories, it's a meal in can.

Can't help but chime in for the Marine/Guinness connection, OOOH RAAH! Would the balance of fate be disturbed if a Lady Leatherneck were to join the lads for a pint or 5? Sounds as if there's interesting company to be found in the bar next to the Irish Times.

Frank, be on the watch for Daschle. He is, as you well know, not a stable man, what with the abuse heaped upon him by Bush and Co. Your wit may have driven him over the edge. Eyes peeled, watch your back. Oh, and have a good time at the wedding.

The Dubliner, kidz. Yer talking about the Dubliner.

And if you're looking for Catholic girls, then go to Catholic University and ask someone about Colonel Brooks Tavern. Sure, they just had a murder there, but it's a great place.

Col Brooks is nice too. It's the local "Peach Pit'(ala 90210) for Catholic U. Not much stuff nicer around there, tho.....

I think it should be illegal for the good bloggers like Frank to have a life. I mean, I find this place awhile back, get hooked, and now Frank's off to DC to kill ninjas and monkeys and score with Catholic girls. Where's his dedication? Where's the work ethic? Jeez Frank, just leave me hanging all weekend :(

( actually, be safe, have fun, good luck to your friend. At least I can daydream about the Fox reporter..)

THE DUBLINER!!! Palm of hand connecting with forehead in 3.... 2.... 1.... ow.........

I don't know about the rest of you, but on this third day of Frank's absence, I now know what primative cultures felt like during the solar eclipse... "WHERE HAS THE SUN GONE!!!"

Personally, I think his absence is ridiculous...do we or do we not PAY HIM to do a job?! Oh, wait. Heh heh...nevermind.

Note to self: do that PayPal thing.

...Frank leaves town and there's a 'monkeypox' outbreak in the midwest (really..)
coincidence??
