We get it. Our Washington is so awesome that you want to just assume that it’s what everyone means, even if they’re talking about that state that spawned that corporate coffee operation. But I have to say, I’m not aware of any time in the past we got mistaken for Kansas.
Etsy vendor themap makes cool stuff but it’s a little better with the crafting than the identifying. I can only assume the scrap of map they used to make their not-actually “Washington DC Map Stainless Steel Money Clip” wasn’t obvious where it was in the larger scheme of things. I forgive them – it’s not their beloved they’re mis-identifying.
Some of you whose tumblrs I found it on, however? Tsk. You can’t pick out our sweetie at a distance?

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.
