Stimulus not stimulating enough? Worried about how your tax problems might force you to leave your job? Or maybe you’re worried that maybe that free healthcare Obama promised isn’t on the way after all? Well, our monthly (or so) happy hour is happening at the Continental Lounge in Rosslyn, Virginia. If you’re an intern looking to meet some editors who can help you out, or if you want to mingle with your favorite writers (which is far more likely), join us.

The paternalistic paws of the government haven’t yet made their way to Northern Virginia, so you can smoke indoors (and it’s well-ventillated so it’s not overwhelming). The happy hour specials are also substantial. We’ll be joined by friends from the TownHall.com, the American Conservative, The Next Right, and others.

Time: 6:00pm - 9:00pm
Location: Continental, 1911 N. Fort Myer Drive, Rosslyn, VA

I suspect it will look like a Ku Klux Klan gathering without the robes.

No, we brought our robes with us. It's cold out.

Tell me about the diversity at that meeting, Petey. Lots of ladies, eh? And, so many people of color you thought you'd wondered into the United Nations? And, you wouldn't want to overlook the GLBTs?

When you've finished with that, share with me the forward-looking, positive conservations you participated in. I can hardly wait!

I swung by there and made a few passes though the establishment but I didn’t see anyone so instead I left and visited a sick uncle. It turned out to be an evening well spent. The only downside was that I stepped in a nasty pile of dog Interloper on the way back to my car. Doesn’t Rosslyn have lease laws?

LOL. Better throw those shoes away, Trotter--you'll never get rid of that foul odor.

I am always amazed and confounded at the level of self-righteousness as lobbed by people who just want to leave mean-spirited comments. Who raised these people?!
