Hey people,
I already wrote up this damn thing and then lost it so you're getting the abridged version.
There is a Professionals in the City event poolside at the Washington Plaza Hotel which sounds pretty sweet. Check out the third event at this link.
There is Bangkok One in the vicinity for cheap drinks and thai food.
There is Palette with what seems to be a degree of hipness unusually present at our gatherings. Seems cool.
Jump on the wagon, Rock the Vote, and professionalize yo'sef!
Cheers!

Center of the Universe HH 06.24.09
Hey people,
This week we're thinking about participating in some social life in what I fondly call the CENTER of the UNIVERSE. Here are our thoughts for the week:
Main show;
Buffalo Billiards
Charity special - $5 for a bracelet which extends happy hour by 2 hours until 9:00pm. Figure you get two drinks after 7 you've made your money back potentially plus (lush, yeah I'm talking to you!)
$2.75 Miller lite, bud lite bottle and draft, $3.50 rail drinks, $3 coronas, select half prices apps.
Bracelet proceeds go to NCSC (Newcomer Community Service Center) which is a minority-based non-profit organization that helps refugees and immigrants from all countries achieve self-sufficiency and become participating members of American Society.
After hours;
18th Street Lounge
Hopping place to go hear some sweet reggae on Wednesday nights. Dreads optional.
Hope to see you people there! I will take any and all challengers at billiards. I used to be good and now I suck so this is a really good opportunity to try to fleece me out of some serious cash.
Cheers!
p.s. This weekend is the 17th Annual Safeway National Capital Barbecue Battle.
Check it out.

As If Ethiopia Really Needed to be Belittled
Well, Team, last week's Gang Out was a success in that we got a healthy bunch out to previously uncharted waters, and the HH followed by a show brought even a few more participants (and whether or not they actually "participated," I'll leave that up to history to decide).
This week we're sticking to the "there's a show worth seeing so let's try to be in the 'hood for it" theme. This week: Little Ethiopia.
6:30 or so (this part is democratic):
Queen Makeda - an appropriately Ethiopian establishment in Little Ethiopia.
El Sol - no web site so unsure about specials, but it's got a number of reviews, and PoP could use our rating...
Expo Lounge - probably not the cheapest or dive-i-est of all venues, but they've got hot cornbread & butter during HH...
1905 - 1/2 priced wine by the bottle utnil 7pm.
8:30pm (this is a bit oligarchical):
DC9 to watch "The Dig," or DC9 to rock it out downstairs. Thanks to a Gang Out contributor for this suggestion!
Vote, fools.

"Please Define Art" Happy Hour 6.3.9
Hey people,
This week we have an opportunity to spend our Happy Hour in a place of unbridled artistic and cultural richness, namely, the DC Artomatic.
Many of us have also contributed to a piece of "art" that was entered in the show. It is on the ninth floor of the building facing the Nationals' stadium. The show is in the same building as the Navy Yard Metro Stop.
There is music, dancing, photography, painting, sculpture and more.
Here is a calendar of events.
There is cheap beer from Flying Dog and more, as well as Red Bull galore. There's also a SmartFood cart out front.
Here are some photos of the incredible "art" to be found at the 10th Anniversary of the DC Artomatic!
Artomatic closes at 10:00pm so get there early and we'll hit some nearby bars afterwards on Barracks row or metro to somplace else. Let me know if you have any questions people. If you don't have my cell already and have questions email me. Yay.
Cheers and see you tomorrow!
