  • Tabby:

    Not a bad idea for a blog, but requires better writing and editing. “Witlow’s” and random capitalization.


  • notahoo:

    The brunch club website is a good idea, but the execution needs some serious work. It appeared to be a geocities website (ie unreadable).


  • cj:

    Is this morning’s photo of the Chamber’s website, or outdoor seating in Shirlington?


  • Suburban Not Urban:

    So how many people does the county employ to apply for all these dinky awards they win for doing their job of providing more services for less money?


    • 4Arl:

      In addition to counting the salaries for PR staff, the question should be asked, how much is the county spending to be a member of this group? If you look at these technology solutions “awards”, don’t you think it’s rather coincidental that every awardee is a member government of the awarding group?


  • Bringmetheyuppies:

    should be renamed clarendon brunch club.


  • Betsy:

    The County manager has 14 PR persons on-staff. That includes AVN. The School System has several PR persons on staff. Several departments (e.g., Arlington Police Department) have a PR person or persons.
