Crazy, the article says it is headed to auction Nov. 18. I wonder if this will have an impact on folks that are already living there?

Revel: met POP on Sunday (out walking my dog, what a cliche I am)

Rant: found three nice bikes in the alley across the street early Sunday morning (2 mt bikes/one road bike). Obviously stolen. Trying to locate owners. Anyone out there missing some bikes from the weekend or before?

Rant: I forgot to read Post Secret the past several Sundays.
Rave: Little Debbie has a snack for me.

Rave: Friday nite:

Rode with friends Friday night in upper 30 degree weather. DC to Tysons To Mongolian BBQ in bethesda then back to Adams Morgan. Froze my ass off, but good to be out with a dozen cool biker friends on what would have been a boring night at home with TIVO and DVD’s.

Rave: Saturday:
Went to DCUSA to finaly check out Target and Best buys. You know this should be more of a Rant…. The place was a Zoo. Clothes and Crazy spanish kids all over the place.

Best buys was about as small as my house. But I guess since I found what i was looking for in both stores without having to deal with Virginia traffic its a Rave. I had a cool sense of pride that I can get to almost everything I need within 3 to 9 minutes from my house. Now I know why the Gentri’s want in…. lol.

Rave: Sunday
Again jump on the motorbike and met up with 17 friends and took country roads thru Delaware and PA to hit south Philly to eat at Tony Luke’s. On the way back saw Accident that had 95 back up for 10 miles. But the detour we took lead us on more adventurous roads.

This weekend was a Win WIn….

Dog Walker -

My housemate’s bike was stolen on October 24th! It’s a silver Fuji Crosstown with a basket on the back. Does that match the description of any of the bikes you found?? If so, please, please give me a call at 651-301-0213!!!

Rant: Been sick for over a week, no it’s not hamthrax! Just a nasty virus that won’t quit.

Revel: Manny has been found! He was found wandering around Cabin John Park in Maryland and brought to the Montgomery County Shelter, where he was reunited with his very relieved and happy owner! Thanks for posting the info PoP and it helped generate a lead on a Manny look-alike!

Sorry, the 2 mt bikes are trail types and have fat tires. The road bike is a racing style/ med-high end. No racks/no baskets

Rave: Beautiful weekend for trips to Brookside Gardens with the little ‘uns. Wheaton is farther away than I remember. It’s more wintry up there because there are more tulip tress, which are all leafless now. Almost three year old is acting surprisingly mature lately (except when not.)
Rant: Mice! Yuckety yuck!

had a threesome on saturday (my first!). we used ample protection, so no fear.

fall of the berlin wall.

caps won saturday

dined at Redwood, in Bethesda, which is probably my new favorite DC area restaurant. Highly recommended.

Rave: Wednesday is a Holiday!

What else is there to say?

RAVE/RANT – I judged a neighborhood chili (and cornbread) cookoff this weekend. Rave because Holy Sh*t that was awesome and everyone involved was so freakin’ cool and we all had so much fun. Rant because 25 chilis and 8 cornbreads is a lot, and my stomach is still not right. Nevertheless, this is mostly a rave.

Rave: Awesome weather. Please hold out for camping this weekend!

Rant: Who in the hell is Dave Stroup, and why should I care?

Rant: Feeling a little left out at the moment.

Rave: My chandelier project is coming along. I only had to spend about $20 and I think it is going to look awesome in my dining room. So ready to get rid of the heavy, ugly, doesn’t go with the house chandelier that is up there now.

Revel: I’m on a business trip in Germany, spending most of my per deim on beer.

Rant: because of this, I missed the PoP party on Thursday.

Revel: spent the weekend in Zurich, where I continued to spend my per diem on beer.

Rant: miss my gal and my cats

Rave: trip to the Cabaret Voltaire in Zurich – birthplace of the Dada art movement. Reminds me that Fred Phelps and the rest of his “church” are the best permormance artists out there.

Bonus rave: I’m on the S-Bahn in Stuttgart where someone was just whistling the Darth Vader theme.

….and I will also send multiple emails to other blogs calling you out for sanitizing your comments. So you’ll let blatant racists comment freely but not someone who criticizes your operation? The “beautiful life” indeed!

and thanks for posting stroupmedia.com. You’re just giving Dave more page views and upping its Google rank.

“…if you wrestle with pigs you are bound to get muddy….”

So true, so true. Rise above it. I wouldn’t have even known if you hadn’t linked.

I’m Team PoP BTW…

OK. I am an idiot, but I don’t see anything about PoP on Dave Stroup’s site. Just some articles about a mayoral candidate and the Metro.

Rave: Yesterday afternoon I just sat in Lincoln Park and watched the dogs playing for over an hour. It was fantastic!

Rant: Organizing my non-profit’s Fannie Mae Help the Homeless Walkathon effort, and only two weeks left to go. I NEED MORE WALKERS!!! Can’t even wait unitl…crap, March. Am I seriously going to be this busy until March???

Dan, thanks for contextualizing the e-mail. I’m not being sarcastic in that it gave me a much better look at the situation.

Keeping running your stuff here and doing so in a classy, reader friendly way.

PoP — ignore that ignoramus with the bowl-cut . . . he is just trying to use you to inflate his own page counts. I love your site! Keep on keepin’ on.
