Rumor is that the Gallaudet protest brigade has gotten necessary permission to march to the Capitol on Friday, so be prepared for some traffic snafus along the New York Avenue route, assuming that’s their path. It could be a big-ish bunch considering that about 60% of the Gallaudet faculty expressed no confidence in Fernandes and said she should step down or be removed. Mind you, I’m not terribly impressed by this incredibly courageous move of stepping up to make a statement after other people have done so for you for several weeks, but still – that’s a big semi-official public endorsement of support for the protesters.
Anyone with information on the route, if it’s been decided, please share.

Well I used to say something in my profile about not quite being a “tinker, tailor, soldier, or spy” but Tom stole that for our about us page, so I guess I’ll have to find another way to express that I am a man of many interests.
Hmm, guess I just did.
My tastes run the gamut from sophomoric to Shakespeare and in my “professional” life I’ve sold things, served beer, written software, and carried heavy objects… sometimes at the same place. It’s that range of loves and activities that makes it so easy for me to love DC – we’ve got it all.
