@PDad @capitalweather That would be proof that not even a twister is strong enough to suction the stench out of that building

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

@KyrieIrving Yeah, must be tough for you, scraping by on $33.33M. Maybe instead of false bullshit sympathy, you actually help the people who need help paying rent

@tblomquist32 @JalenRose @LeonardVoshon Wish Voshon had joined Big Blue..
BTW @JalenRose, no love for Cazzie in Michigan All-Time Top 5??? He was a BAAAAD man on the wood

An early State of the Union summary...

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

More Lovin' Local... check out Baklava Coutoure in Kensington MD. Great mom-and-pop Greek. Maybe the best baklava in the DMV...

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

While nothing has beat Bogarts in St. Louis, Martin's is awfully fine in Nashville...

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

Sugar Fire and Pappy's are both fine places, but head to Bogarts for St Louis bar-b-que of the highest order

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

I can't believe I skipped over Lexington KY. Yet another great little food town

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

Frankfort Avenue Beer Depot. In Louisville, KY? Head to the east side for local bar-b-que

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

The band shell in Clifton Forge. I love small town architecture. Organic, genuine, freeing...

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

Vic's in Clifton Forge VA: 40 years strong by Victor from the Bronx, his son now oversees the same Italian red sauce, and it's masterful

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

I mostly write about urban non-corporate development. But, if you're ever in Clifton Forge VA, see this Bronx expat

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

Good Food Markets... Real food in the neighbourhood, at reasonable mark-ups. We need more local business...

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

Brookland rising! Good Food eatery on Rhode Island Ave

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

Someone tweeted Congress struggling to understand Pope's accent. No, they're struggling to understand concepts of mercy, decency, tolerance

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

Prejudiced Trump threatens Jose Andres' lease termination. Support tolerance and creativity.

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

Check out Zeke's Coffee House on Rhode Island Ave NE at 23rd street.
Support your local business owners, not the corporate giants...

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

Brookland rises! Local owner Simeon re-opens "Optimism" as "Serendipity", a coffee and jazz house. Grand Opening this wknd with live music.

[Michael Burns @MicBurns72]

Slow, rainy, late winter day. Sitting at Sidamo, best coffee house in DC. Bad day for me the Realtor; great day for me the Slackr
