Conroy’s Corner

WARNING: If you are looking for a post related to the readings, this is not it. You will have to scroll down the page to find course related material. This post contains my personal ramblings…

Some members of the class have taken to going out for drinks and/or food after class on Tuesdays. It is a very fun time and an excellent opportunity to get to know one’s peers better. Unfortunately, our knowledge of the local bar scene is rather limited, although we are attempting to expand it. I personally am no longer content with venturing to the over-priced Guapo’s or to the Dancing Crab (formerly the Malt Shop). We went to Armand’s Pizzeria last week and that was excellent! A $7.50 all-you-can-eat pizza buffet (Tuesday special) and fairly reasonably priced drinks. Armand’s is currently the front-runner on my “going out after class” list. That being said, I encourage, nay, I demand additional options! Washington, DC bars and restaurants should be explored for the common good of all graduate students.

The unfortunate drawback to bars and restaurants (even the best of the two) is that they are expensive. Due to that regrettable fact, I propose a humble solution for this week’s quest for a going out location. You are all invited back to my house after class for some beer and chips (unless I eat them between now and Tuesday). I live a mile and a half from campus (2818 North Glade Street NW, Washington, DC 20016) and will drive to class for those who would like a ride.

The current selection of drinks are Bud Light, Corona, Root Beer, and water. If people would like to bring additional beverages or food, they are more than welcome. I will see you all in class on Tuesday and hopefully many of you afterwards chez moi.
