Commentary- This is at least the third time that we have seen high nitrate levels in water here in DC. While it appears from the press release that WASA is stepping up to fix a problem that "isnt theirs", the question remains as to who is responsible? Is it the city? Is it WASA, EPA? One Small Step for a Man. Monday, October 02, 2006. It Must be Election Season. Candidates have historically paid le...

http://eckingtonblog.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
New Kid on the Eckington Block. Monday, April 30, 2007. I just received word from a friend and IT Guru, that my devoted hard-drive, which has been with me since 2002, has died. It even broke the disk repair machine. So, there is more than a little sadness in losing nearly 80gigs of music and all of my photos from Iraq, Bosnia and other places. Tuesday, April 24, 2007. Looking for a Roommate. Please email me at johngalt332002@yahoo.com for more information. PhD student in theology at CUA, thus the name).

New Kid on the Eckington Block: May 2007
http://eckingtonblog.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
New Kid on the Eckington Block. Thursday, May 31, 2007. This photo needs no introduction. Wednesday, May 23, 2007. There are very few times that I have felt discriminated against. Once I was passed over for a job because the potential employer was looking for someone older. That is pretty much it. However, there have been two events in the last few months that have really made my blood boil. It is not ok to use racial slurs, or bring up race in an argument like this. It just isn't. Have you seen this man.

New Kid on the Eckington Block: An Outcome Neither You or I Would Receive
http://eckingtonblog.blogspot.com/2007/06/outcome-neither-you-or-i-would-receive.html
New Kid on the Eckington Block. Thursday, June 14, 2007. An Outcome Neither You or I Would Receive. DC Council member (and Mayor for Life) Marion Barry was acquitted yesterday of driving under the influence and three other traffic-related charges after he testified that he had a glass of wine and took at least five different medications on the night of his arrest. There is however something hilarious about MB rolling in a 1995 Camaro. Why is this idiot still in office? I totally agree with your point!

New Kid on the Eckington Block. Monday, September 17, 2007. Check out this comprehensive update from DC Mud Blog on Eckington. Attracting decidedly less media attention, Eckington, its immediate neighbor to the north, has nonetheless been discovered by local developers not quite ready for an Akridge-sized purchase of air rights over railroad yards, but who view the more than 10 million square feet of commercial space being built on its southern edge as an invitation to develop the residential market.

New Kid on the Eckington Block. Wednesday, June 13, 2007. Review of Colonel Brooks. BROOKLAND- Area man dines at " dangerous restaurant. The author of this blog visited COL Brooks Tavern last night after dark (gasp) to review its fare and spirits. All of the tables were full, so my friend and I pulled up a chair at the bar.
