OK, it's not really a tour, but we thought it would be fun to imagine a tour of all the historic scandalous places in and around Washington. Instead we'll just get together and have some fun.<P>June 23 is the date, but the location and time are still open for suggestions. It makes sense to target the location for easy accessibility, e.g., near a Metro stop if within the city. (Does the Watergate have a bar?)<P>All are welcome. To avoid cluttering this forum, please RSVP to DCScandals@yahoo.com so we can make sure we get a location big enough (or small enough). Send suggestions for locations to this address also. I'll update this post to provide info such as location, etc. when news is available.<P>Please keep in mind that this gathering is for fun. The organizers have concluded that we don't want this to turn into a therapy session. However, humor therapy is appropriate.<P>Potential guests include Gary Hart, Jennifer Flowers, Linda Tripp and MORE!!<P>WAT

Hi cleo - absolutely NOT limited to DC locals!! We need somebody from reality!! Even we local BSs may be in our own Federal Fog. Just bring a sleeping bag and a toothbrush and someone will take you in, I bet. Sorry, ladies, my separation agreement prohibits me from having female overnight guests! [Linked Image from marriagebuilders.com]<P>"Prime Rib or something like that"? C'mon, cleo, you gotta give me to go on than that!!<P>WAT

HI JL - well, of course, the locals will still be around, if not fully functional. There hasn't been any discussion about making it a full weekend, but if folks like cleo come in, obviously they would need to stay Saturday night. So doing something Sunday - even just to get Just Learning's autograph - can work. I expect it will materialize on its own if enough visitors plan to come.<P>D.C. folklore:<P>word origin of "politics"<P>poly, meaning "many"<BR>tics, meaning "blood suckers"<P>WAT

Back to top.<P>Anybody wanting autographs from SKM and JL better get hot. RSVP to DCScandals@yahoo.com. <P>I'm sorry to report that Ollie North and Jesse Jackson have declined their invitations, but, for some reason, I haven't heard from Tricky [censored], yet, so maybe he'll surprise us?<P>The location will be announced soon.<P>WAT

While you are all roaming around the DC area--Check out Blackies in the Springfield area. Its a dance club and steak/primerib place. That's where my ex met his OW and where he also introduced my son to his girlfriend and now wife.

db713,<P>I hate to tell you this, but Blackie's in Springfield is gone. I have forgotten what is going up in that location but when I was in Springfield a month or so ago, it was a thing of the past. Sorry.<P>JL
