Another Slight to D.C.

No voting rights in Congress. No bust in Statuary Hall. And now, to the list of D.C. insults on the national stage, I offer this image.


The offending postcard. (David Nakamura - TWP)


It comes from a postcard that was attached to my doggy bag after I took a source to BLT Steak, a power lunch spot near 16th and I Streets NW. It's not the restaurant's famous, and tasty, pop-overs that has my dander up, but rather the newspaper underneath them.

Now, granted BLT Steak has its origin, and its flagship franchise, in the Big Apple. But, might I suggest that the establishment consider printing another set of postcards for its D.C. franchise, featuring a more, um, local newspaper.

Will the indignities ever end for us oppressed Washingtonians? I trust Mark Plotkin will help take this case to the city's elected leadership.

Looks like breaded mushrooms.
