It's about a month old, but I found THIS piece in the Washington Post about the efforts to get a second Birchmere venue in downtown Silver Spring. Sounds like there's momentum, but as they say--the devil's in the details.

Tony Snow held his first on camera press briefing today. I thought he did really well -- better than I thought, to be honest. He understood the issues, actually ANSWERED questions, was honest when he DIDN'T know the answers, and showed a sense of humor. It was just "zippier." He also had an emotional moment when he was asked about his cancer scare. He actually teared up. Fox has the video HERE.

Going to see the 80s girl band -- The Go-Go's -- tonight at the 930 Club. They've all had ALOT of work, but they all look pretty darn good. (Especially my girl, Belinda!) Going with a dear friend from Syracuse who now lives in my neighborhood. We were ALL about the Go-Go's back in the day. I'm driving because she says she and her husband just got a new minivan and she just can't bear being seen driving to the club in it. Good call.

The Go-Go's NOW:
