best baseball game ever tonight (thanks kriston!) - i mean, except for the nats losing. a lot. because, in addition to delicious beer and sausages and free little american flags and stuff, we had TWO FAMOUS SIGHTINGS. (ahem, for d.c.) outside, while tommy and i were lounging around on the armory steps, we saw MARK WARNER. be still my heart. it was actually our second sighting - we'd seen him apple-picking in charlottesville once. second sighting: david gregory of nbc. not as awesome, but still kind of cool. people in the bleachers actually recognized him. d.c. is such a dorkily awesome town.

i hope my brother's sub base in san diego is a wee bit more welcoming than this freaky russian one. (this link and the one below via waxy)

neat to think about - can you believe that just five years ago iPods and social networking sites amongst other ever-present tech and media things weren't part of our day-to-day lives? five years from now, "which products, used by few today, will be essential?"
