Happy Holidays...

...and Happy 2010!

Looks to be a fabulous May!!

636 Q St NW - For Sale

So it appears 636 Q Street NW is for sale?

This sign just went up today for the property which was bought sometime in 2007 by ASALH, who started renovations and then left it vacant for the next two plus years...
the alley next to this property doubles as a restroom for the 7th & Q Social Club who hangs at the Warrenton Group's headquarters (e.g. 1547 7th Street NW)...
Mr Q has become skeptical of "For Sale" signs in the 'hood...
Not sure if this is for real or yet another tax scam/strategy by the property owner...looked up the website for the Horizon Group, but didn't see a listing for this property...or on Redfin...but maybe its just not entered into the system...

Let's hope for the best and this property sees better days ahead...

Real World DC...

...begins December 30th.

It's been a long, long...long time since Mr Q has tuned in to a Real World episode, but it will be interesting to see what they do with the city...

Real World XXIII: Washington DC - MTV Shows

Still here...

...just quiet. Thinking of which direction I want to go...

Gray, gloomy skies don't help...

Someone spotted today in the basement of the recently sold Shiloh shell at 8th & Q...please do something to it soon...

$793K for the new place at 9th & Q should provide motivation...

Appears Bread for the City work is starting next door...but when will Kelsey go?

Happy Thanksgiving. Be back soon.

Nine...

Seems like this movie has been forever coming out, but it finally gets released December 25th!

And this "rehearsal video" makes Mr Q want to see it even more!

Dance and Sing...

...get up and do your thing!

QSN has gotten super boring lately...

just in a lull, but Mr Q will get up and do his thing at some point very soon...probably tomorrow...


In the meantime, enjoy the new Rolling Stone interview and
an extended video mix of one of his favorite subjects...

Don't just sit there, let's get to it...

Flashback Friday...

In memory of Captain Lou Albano...

Cindy Lauper-Girls Just Want to Have Fun

There was a rumor that Cyndi was going to replace Paula Abdul on American Idol...as much as Mr Q enjoys Ellen, he would have liked to see Cyndi get that gig...

Have a fun, cold and damp weekend!

More insight from Jon Stewart...

National Equality March...

It was a beautiful day for the National Equality March yesterday...

How many times have you seen a rainbow on a perfectly sunny fall day? Is it a sign???

This was the Sign of the Day for Mr. Q...enough already people!
Equal rights for everyone is THAT controversial in 2009?

Hard to take a bad picture of the Capitol on a sunny fall day...

Thanks to everyone that came out for the March! Not sure why Mr. Barney Frank and others feels its "useless" to have a large-scale event that brings media attention to such a fundamental issue and continues to advance the dialogue...

Agreed, inequality won't be ended by one March down Pennsylvania Avenue, but it doesn't hurt to remind the President of his campaign promises and in Mr Q's opinion, it's one more step along the long journey to gaining equal rights for ALL Americans...

A little less conversation...

...a little more action please.

Get out there people!!

Jon Stewart...

...sums it up again.

Good job Jon!

One week...

...till Ugly Betty returns with a death knell Friday night time slot...
but Mr Q is hoping for the best cause he loves Betty!

Set your DVR for the 2 hour premiere Friday, October 9th!!

In case you haven't heard...

There's a big rally in DC next weekend!
There has been a lot of debate whether a protest like this is the best use of everyone's time and energy without more specific goals than "equality", but Mr Q doesn't really see the downside...if you're in the DC area, and you care about equal rights for yourself, your friends or your family,
please make an effort to show up!!


And on a related note...
a story about the Catholic Church (with its tax-exempt status) using its
parishioners donations for very political purposes...

"Maine's Catholic churchgoers were asked to make an additional donation on Sunday toward repealing the marriage equality law in the state. Church officials said the donations would pay for television ads and campaign efforts to overturn the law in this November's upcoming vote."

Crazy!!

Happy 74th Birthday Julie Andrews!!
Born October 1, 1935

Sure, she was Mary Poppins and Maria Von Trapp but Mr Q loves her in the gender-bending comedy Victor/Victoria!

And this is one of my favorite numbers from that movie!

Glee...

...guest starring Kristin Chenoweth tonight! Singing "Maybe this Time" from Cabaret!!

As if Mr Q didn't love this show enough!
Don't bother me with the far-fetched fake pregnancy plot...
it's an hour of FUN wrapped in a MUSICAL format!!
A combination you don't get very much on TV anymore...
actually I can't think of anywhere else...


And Madonna on Letterman tonight...
could be a big ho-hum plug for "Celebration" but you never know...
I'll be setting the DVR...
