Before going to sleep tonight I thought I’d look around Craigslist to see if there were any new postings for housing in Washington, DC… Had I known that I was going to run into this, I would’ve just gone to bed:

Talk about opportunistic …

While tons of people are stuck at home, tons of others are stranded due to the airports closing, and others are straight-up homeless; some cold-hearted schmuck is trying to make $400 A DAY off others’ misery??? Let me guess, you haven’t done a single thing to try to help the Haiti relief efforts either have you? Or maybe you’re selling “Help Haiti” T-shirt on some Web site I have yet to stumble upon?

Of snow, and other cheesy things we take for granted

I happen to think that all things happen for a reason. Two weeks before moving to my new home in Maryland, my car — or Dave, as I named it — moved on to a better place. A most untimely, unfortunate event. I have lived in College Park, Md., in and around the D.C. area, for a little over three months now. I love the city and I think part of it is because I’m always on foot.
