The Happening, a DC art and culture event, is this Saturday at R & B Coffee at 1359 H St. NE. What’s cool about this, besides the poetry slam and awesome music? Well, it’s not just limited to DC, thanks to an online group called Second Life and Make Magazine’s Phil Torrone.

I live and work in the District of Columbia. I write at We Love DC, a blog I helped start, I work at Technolutionary, a company I helped start, and I’m happy doing both. I enjoy watching baseball, cooking, and gardening. I grow a mean pepper, keep a clean scorebook, and wash the dishes when I’m done. Read Why I Love DC.
