Katie thinks you should get yourself out and about to enjoy this weekend’s warm weather, but if you’d rather hunker down in the dark and watch some flickering lights there’s options for you too. DC Shorts will be running a screening of 14 of the best submissions from their 2008 festival this Friday and Saturday evenings at 7p. 14 films in 3 hours.
Personally I like the sounds of How My Dad Killed Dracula: “On Halloween night, a father recounts the harrowing tale of how he fought and killed Dracula” but those of you who like Tiff’s comedy writeups might enjoy Funniest Feds: “The stand-up comedy competition featured over 30 contestants — all of whom work as federal employees in the DC area.” At $10 it’s hard to imagine not getting your money’s worth.

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.
