Blog Trains
Doors Closing! Or Your Chance to Be Famous
K Street Blues
News alert: Metro is holding auditions for the next "please stand clear of the
closing doors" voice on all its subway trains. I'm so going to try out, writes ED. Who then wonders what some famous politicians might say if they gave the door closing announcement. His list of suspects, and their door closing lines, includes Bill Clinton, Howard Dean and Marion Barry.I understand, though, that it might be hard to snag any of these famous people, and Metro might even want to go with some voices that are, sadly, no longer with us ("Ich bin ein closing door").
Life on the DC Metro RAC
Michael Snyder was appointed to WMATA Riders' Advisory
Council (RAC) in December and is keeping a blog of his experiences. He also wants his blog to serve as a forum for people interested in WMATA issues. When he isn't involved in transportation issues, Michael is vice president of CASEtech, an IT consulting firm. He summarizes his approach to the rider's council this way:My philosophy has always been to bring forward solutions or ideas for resolving issues at the same time a problem is identified. Anyone can complain about service … it takes some thought and consideration to think through the problems and offer-up suggestions.

Become a minimalist. Well, this is pretty self-explanatory. Last year, after the tsunami, I realized how material things don't matter at the end of the day. From a list of resolutions by The Life and Times of Chai (Check out her new site design.)

I'm so glad you noted Militant Hedonist's mysterious minimalist conceptual art.
That is so weird. I entered the comment, after which Militant Hedonist disappeared. Wow.
Yes, he's gone.
thanks for the shout out.
I think you jinxed his very existence, Reya.
Oh no, I hope not! I loved M.H., will miss that blog. But every blog has its moment. M.H. is not the only blog that signed off at the end of 2005. It's interesting. Hail and farewell, Militant Hedonist!
WORD UP FOR THE CHAI PROPS!

Michael
