Lots o’ quirky stuff being bandied about the Interwebs this week, including some fabulously oblivious bookend observations.
I extend my undying admiration to:
* Data miner Bonnie Azab Powell (via @grist) for bringing to my attention just how much Arlingtonians blow on edible entertainment (nearly $12k per household–$850 behind spendthrift Austinites (#1) but $1,400 more than their D.C. neighbors (#6));
* Javaclast Lynne Rosenthal (via @delrayser) for refusing to kowtow to coffee couture;
* Truckies Erin Willi (@erinferrell) and Amanda McClements (@metrocurean) for illustrating our mobile dining dreams and nightmares;
* Booze hounds Ray Daniels (@Cicerone_org) and Frank Rich (@Modern_Drunkard) for portraying the alpha and omega of tying one on;
* Hot Chocolate City dining sleuths @dcwrappeddates and @BYTEatDrink for voicing the yin and yang of Restaurant Week;
* Pith spewer @Hormonella for dealing sardonically with disappointing foodstuffs; and,
* Virginia native Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) for rekindling the ultra-low tech communications revolution.
I feels ya.
