Lush uses ground almonds in many of their products, so people with severe nut allergies should probably stay away.
Wesley: Perhaps the whole point of this experiment is hair. Gunn: I vote he's not in charge.

Plan what to do, what to wear (you can never go wrong with a corset), and get ready for the next BuffistaCon: New Orleans! May 20-22, 2005!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Where are the cool thrift stores?

Sadly, Jon, DC is rather regrettably lacking in a concentration of cool thrift stores. There's a big Value Village out in College Park that I find some decent stuff at, but it's not "cool". There's a couple in Takoma Park that aren't bad.
unlikely event that a hotel employee notices we suddenly have four people in our room instead of two I will easily and simply explain it by having sex with meara.

It really doesn't matter. It's just an opinion. Don't worry about it. Not worth the hassle.

Yup - that would have been what nailed me. I mean, I walked in behind betsy and buckled at the knees. Only thing that does me that fast is nut fibers in the air.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift
For the airplane aficionados, the National Air and Space Museum has opened up an annex near Dulles Airport: The Udvar-Hazy Center. It has more room than the museum downtown and you'll be able to see the Enola Gay, the space shuttle Enterprise, and a SR-71 Blackbird amongst other things.
You will need a car to get there, but it's so very worthwhile. It's probably an all-day trip; the Center is more than 760,000 sq.ft. For more information, visit [link]

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
I completely OD'ed on the Air and Space museum as a kid
and
Air and Space sounds very good
I got to visit Air&Space on the Mall last June. Many differences and IMHO much improved since my last visit in '89. Worth seeing again.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

DH was there last week (without me. Bastard) and it is indeed spiffy.
I'm sorry I won't be there with you, but it's still fun to read this thread.

I don't know how one gets to them if one is not coming from Friendship Heights.
The 38B runs from Farragut North through Georgetown. It sounds like its route and schedule is about the same as the blue bus Hil is talking about.

Yeah, what meara said. There's a biggish Goodwill out in south Arlington that has some good stuff, but there's no specific Thrifty Neighborhood.
