Washington Tweets


by Bill Adler

Washington tweets. A lot. The Washington Tweets column is a collection of the most interesting, recent Washington-area tweets. These tweets reveal a candid and fascinating portrait of what is on our collective minds: Twitter gives a snapshot of what we're doing, thinking and hoping for. Washington Tweets is Washington in the raw. Bill Adler tweets at @billadler.

I always tell myself I need to go places like Cap City Diner, & then they close. DAMN IT!

In DC restaurant waiting for my dinner companion; Valerie Jarrett came in, also Sen. John Kerry. Must be a popular spot!

Good teachers are spread fairly evenly throughout the District despite enormous achievement gaps

I can't believe nobody invited me to their Pro Bowl party this year. Or every other year before.

I think this bus has rolled 10 feet in the last 15 minutes. Gotta love #DC traffic. #ugh
