You can talk about whatever is on your mind – quality of life issues, a beautiful tree you spotted, scuttlebutt, or any random questions/thoughts you may have. I’ll open this thread every Monday and Friday. So anything good happen to you this week?

I’m afraid I have to share some reader rants of items that have been stolen. If anyone spots one I’m sure it’d be appreciated.

First: A silver & blue Trek bicycle was stolen in the middle of the day yesterday at the corner of 13th and G Streets, NW.

A Macbook was stolen:

“My computer was stolen yesterday from my house. I wanted to publicize the make and serial # in case it comes to one of your readers’ attention. I live in Petworth. Anyway, my laptop is a MacBook, late 2006 model, black, 13- inch screen. The serial # is: W87070NUWGM.

Could you put a notice on the site just in case somebody sees it or something? They could contact me at tsoumela(at)gmail.com. I also filed a police report and I will put it in Twitter too.”

#lost and found

I’ll start with a rave, went to the Arboretum on Sunday and the koi pond was in full effect.

I’ll start with a bit of rave tease. I had my best meal at a new restaurant in DC last night. I’ll post as a judging restaurants next week but it was awesome!

Hope you survived the earthquake ok. Alert DC sends an advisory in case of another one:

“o Take cover under a desk, table, or bench. If none is available, use an inside wall or doorway.
o Stay away from windows, outside doors, walls, and anything that could shatter or fall on you.
o If you’re sleeping, stay in bed and cover your head with a pillow. If your bed is under a heavy light fixture or you have a large mirror or painting over your headboard, move to the nearest safe place.
o Stay inside until the shaking stops. Most injuries during an earthquake occur when people enter or exit a structure.”

You should also follow these instructions if the communists invade…
