Georgia On Our Minds!
Why? Well, back in the 1970's there was a wave of violence in the poorer parts of Chicago. Murder after murder, it just wouldn't stop. Then mayor Jane Byrne made a dramatic move, moving her residence to one of the neighborhoods, reasoning that the police would follow her there. She forthrightly admitted she took the idea from the mayor of Atlanta (we forget which one -- Andrew Young?).
We bring this up because Monz (and Mrs. Monz) have raised the bar by selflessly venturing to sketchy D.C. sans any protective bubble. And still managed to work in lunch (Friday: club sandwich at the American Grill, Saturday: tapas at Jaleo including a very mouthwatering-sounding toasted bacon and date thing and gaspatcho.
