DC Blogs Noted
From the Things To Do Desk at DC Blogs:
- Frozen Tropics alerts us to the upcoming Plant Swap for those of you into such things
- Frugal Friends gives us their guide to Outdoor Movies Season
- A guide to World Cup watching from DCist
- A perfect Father’s Day gift for the culinarily inclined: Master Grilling Class at Acadiana (alternate title – So You Think You Can Grill?)… hat tip to LBJ’s Brown Bag for the post.
Back when this contributing editor was still in the restaurant business, I got into a minor internet dust-up because one of my junior managers foolishly posted an online rant about a woman breast feeding in the dining room. I didn’t understand the public fascination/controversy with public breast feeding then and it still is beyond me. After reading Go, Pop, Go‘s well articulated thoughts on the matter, I am less befuddled.
When I spied a post from the mostly dormant blogger, The Home Improvement Ninja, I was excited to have his voice return to the DC Blogosphere. Excitement quickly gave way to condolences upon reading More Questions Than Answers.

…speaking of single pictures, we could all use some of this sometimes. Thanks tier1dc.
Dear DC Summer Interns (in general) and Capitol Hill Interns (in specific,) I doubt that many of you have made your way to DC Blogs, the chronicle of record for the DC Blogosphere. For those of you that have, Capitol Hill Style has a lovely welcome message and primer for you. It contains a discussion of behavioral and professional competencies, suggested attire, and calibration of expectations – YMMV and feel free to share with your poorly compensated colleagues.
DC Blogs Contributing Editor and resident lover of all thing train-wreck-ian, LiLu, has penned an ode to the televised spectacle of orange better known as Jersey Shore. She wishes she could hate but cannot help but love the characters with their “lube-shellacked hair, George Hamilton glow, and mouths” that would make even the famously potty-mouthed Lilu “blush.” Alternate title: A C*ckworth Orange.
Live Feed Note: The live feed is now appearing on the dcblogs.com/live page. You will notice a slight difference. It now sits in a frame with scroll bar. Tip: right click blogs to open in new tab, otherwise they will open in the frame. This will work until we resolve the issue that is preventing it from appearing on the normal page.
