Cavs have a hard time with San Antoinio.
Washington Plaza hotel cost us a lot less this time. Maybe it was the reservation on Expedia and booking in advance. The room again was very clean. The restaurant and pool were most agreeable. I ordered a salad with fruit. Rick ordered a veggie sandwich. Sacha ordered a salad with feta cheese.
Saul Steinberg (of New Yorker fame) exhibit at National Portrait Gallery was most enjoyable. As first artist-in-residence at Smithsonian, he sure made fun of Smithsonian stationary. I don't really understand the definition of portrait in National Portrait Gallery, but maybe I don't care that much as exhibit was so good.
Aria for dinner was terrible. The waiter came back three times to confirm our order. We got no silverware until we asked. I got soup which I did not order. Instead of a veggie panini, I got a sausage panini. The fries with my panini were like cardboard. I got a stomachache afterward.
Capitol Steps were as funny as expected and so talented. Here are couple of funny things from their Web site, noting of course they had trouble finding words that rhyme with Yeltsin.
We note the passing of the Russian leader with a certain relief. The Capitol Steps live in fear of only two things: (1) election of competent leaders, and (2) politicians with names like "Yeltsin"
Albums:
- One Bush, Two Bush, Old Bush New Bush,
- Four More Years in the Bush Leagues,
- All I Want for Christmas Is a Tax Increase, and more...
- Songs: What Kind of Fuel I Am?,
- How Do You Solve a Problem Like Scalia,
- The Singing Chads, and more
The Capitol Steps will miss President Bush when he leaves office. Ever the bumbling speaker, he's given the musical and acting troupe a wealth of material to parody -- and political cover when an actor flubs his lines.
