Kibbles and Bits

  • Little India in Woodley Park is by far the worst Indian food I've had in DC.  Perhaps it has something to do with the vermin infestation.  Effing gross.
  • Virginia's loss to Tennessee hurt not only my spirit, but also my bracket.  Still, I got 11 of the 16.  Far better than last year.
  • The tourism council in my home state must have mixed a little crack in with their meth.  The new tourism slogan is "Whatever you do, don’t come to West Virginia."  Apparently they're using sarcasm to attract attention to the ads.  I honestly don't know what to think of this. 
  • So, Savannah sounds interesting...

That slogan is almost as good as "Welcome to Arizona: Enjoy our Disturbingly Tan Old People."

Not only was it brilliant to advertise "Don't Come to WV", but also to put an ad heavy on the kayaking, hiking, fishing, mountaineering, etc, in the OPRAH MAGAZINE.

i guess that would work if their target demographic were confused teenagers just looking to defy authority. of course, that only works if anyone considers the west virginia tourism board "authority"...

I ate at Little India once. I knew there was something off about their food. The service was really bad too. The waiter kept scowling at us.

i'm also a West Virginian turned Washingtonian. I read your comment in Express. Way to go. Anyway, it pains me see this stuff about our home state. I'd like to ask "why won't they leave us alone?" but we keep giving them such good material.

but is it better than 'Open for Business'?

Oh no! I had Little India delivered a few weeks ago. Am I going to die?

Just the idea that the food may have been tainted is enough to put me off Indian food forever. Ewwww.
