Hey everyone! I know many of you were wondering what happend to me last week due to the infrequent updates...the airport is what happend. I love my job but I hate delays and terminals that don't have wireless access. I spent much of last week either stranded at Chicago Midway or New York's LaGuardia, and it looks like I'll get to do it all over again this week. But today I'm finally going to get a chance to hang out in D.C. . I've never really had the opportunity to see what the city has to offer for SGL men of color, although I've heard stories . So if you have any recommendations for spots that I need to check out please let me know. I've already been to The White House and George Bush wasn't to thrilled about my presence, it seems I'm everything Karl Rove has taught him to fear, black, gay, registered voter, educated, and smart enough to know Osama Bin Laden caused 9/11 and we should be going after him...lol !

Thanks for hanging in there with me guys. Stay tuned...

I'd go to the Wahington Mall and see the memorials. More specifically I'd check out the NATIVE-AMERICAN and AFRICAN-AMERICAN MUSEUMS along the strip.

I'd also check out a nice eatery/bookstore called BUSBOYS and POETS (in honor of Langston Hughes) on U Street NW near Howard. Very gay friendly.

Georgetown is good for hanging out.
