Today’s question was inspired but this psa from Meg:
“I’ve tracked down a local rockstar bartender and thought you may be interested. His name, Walter, comes up when The Heights is mentioned (RIP), like in this post of yours. He started at The Heights, then went to Le Dip, then Rake’s Progress at The Line Hotel, then Columbia Room (!!!) and then was lost to the pandemic. Well, he is back behind the bar at a local place that just opened in Takoma Park called Koma! I’m so excited!

So besides Walter, who’s your favorite bartender and where do they work these days?

“Dear PoPville,
You sat next to me on the metro (between 10am and noon on Tuesday (14 Nov). not sure of the metro line, either the Blue or Silver line); it was totally packed for the rally. Everyone got off at metro center/smithsonian leaving just us and we chatted for a bit til we reached my stop. (more…)
