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. Washington Tweets is published on Monday. Bill Adler tweets at @billadler.

Hello Washington DC, I think your DC stands for "Darn Cute!" let's make it a fun weekend together! (@iamjonathancook)
@unsuckdcmetro Happy Monday to you. Red Line at Judiciary Sq - doors won't open. @FixWMATA (@el_mitso)
I really want a street vendor pretzel on my way home. But the tourists have finally left DC so there won't be any trucks. #cantwin (@TheScribblePad)
After weeks of email exchanges, finally met up with @goodiesdc today. That truck serves a damn fine root-beer float. (@brfreed)
Best part of the weekend: taking a sunrise #photo tour of #DC monuments with @SCOUTPhotoX http://pic.twitter.com/Zvd7VW8n (@laurably)
Biking from Cleveland Park to Shaw, caught in the storm, was actually really fun -- despite the 4L of water I brought into the house (@timkmak)
Today's cover story: @aubreyjwhelan reports that more than 90 D.C. cops have been arrested in less than 4 years: http://bit.ly/NVxRaF (@dcexaminerlocal)
We are amazed to witness your generosity in helping to support young journalists and provide meaningful coverage of violent crime. (@homicidewatch)
