It’s Wednesday and, yes, it’s my birthday. I was going to say something tomorrow but the only thing worse than people that tell you today’s their birthday are the people that tell you yesterday was their birthday (it’s really best to keep birthdays to yourself). Anyway, here’s a look at Tuesday’s Capitol Hill activity in the East Precinct.
