DC is filled with reformed lawyers. I just found out last night that the woman who owns the gourmet shop that runs the food concession at the theatre is a reformed lawyer. And that she was secretly married to her husband for a year while they both worked at the firm.
There's something about a food that moves all by itself that gives me the heebie-jeebies.

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

My favorite local ice cream shop growing up was started by a disenchanted ex-DC lawyer. (Bob's Famous Ice Cream in Bethesda, for the locals.)

I just realized that this is Easter Weekend. Gosh.
Mormon folk don't make a big deal out of Easter, so it's not a large spot on the calendar. I don't know how many times I've had to explain to the locals what Good Friday represents. You'd think the members of a church officially called The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints would understand the whole crucified/tomb/born again thing, but not so much. They know it happened, sure, but they're fuzzy on the details. One shouldn't have to go to the local pagans for this information.
