This is a fun little article about this. There was a 10-year stretch where Burke Street Pizza was a top five restaurant in this city. We were late to the foodie Revolution but we are getting it right now. Tons of delicious restaurants here. Thank God.
Just with respect to the W/S Robin Hood neighborhood origin story. It's one of the 4 theories advanced.
In most other aspects of life, I am not team fancy pants. I do like meals from some fancy restaurants but the pomp and circumstance and formality make me uncomfortable when I audibly fart.
Wife and I watched Bombshell (late to game) last night. Kate McKinnon's character, though fictional, cracked me up in her first few scenes. Reminded me on my brief time interning on Capitol Hill. As I shared in the POTUS thread, I accidentally interned for a politician on the absolute opposite end of the political spectrum than me and my intern days felt like I was in constant threat of being "found out" and flayed accordingly. McKinnon plays a secret HRC-supporting lesbian who is also an O'Reilly producer, for reference.
I was even more surprised to discover there were more like me. More than a few folks on Capitol Hill who didn't just disagree with their politicians at the margins but found some of their policies wholesale abhorrent. A very specific support group needed for those folks though I guess it's not much different than working for a company that's done bad things and goes to the mattresses fighting the lawsuits and PR.
Windy, very very windy.
The worst thing I have done for my career is become emotionally attached to the device that I educate people about. This is a terrible idea and I wish it weren't so. It's probably good that you could work for someone with an opposing viewpoint. I would be steaming towards retirement right now if I weren't a True Believer in what I'm doing. I have been lucky to I have worked for the only two companies that I feel this way about. But it has inarguably stunted my professional growth.
You mean . . . . Fished in!
