WELCOME TO THE ADMINISTRATION — Robert Vinson Brannum, news-conference-attending, military-medal-wearing, Post-editorial-hating Ward 5 activist, has been hired on a $37,000 contract with the Office of Veterans Affairs, Suderman reports (http://www.washingtoncitypaper.com/blogs/looselips/2011/07/27/megaphone-wielding-vince-gray-admirer-to-help-d-c-remember-911-for-37000/): ``[Gray community affairs chief Steve Glaude] says Brannum wasn`t rewarded with a city job because of his `media activities` nor solely because of Brannum`s support of the mayor`s campaign. Brannum was hired, Glaude says, because he`s been an avid advocate for veteran`s affairs ... and has the skills necessary to help the Office of Veteran`s Affairs prepare for the Sept. 11th commemoration.`` Glaude adds that ``if you know anything about Robert, he can be quite animated in his request for employment.``

Open Houses in and around Bloomingdale for 7/26/2009

There are several Open Houses scheduled in the area for Sunday. Click on the highlighted text to view.

I'd also like to bring your attention to Bloomingdale in The Washington Post real estate section this week. Terri Rupar has written about purchasing property in "AS IS" condition (something I help people do quite a bit) and has featured my clients', Mark Mueller and Charles Martinez' home on the 100 block of W St NW. The article can be found here. I have also been chronicling the ongoing sage of Mark and Charles' renovation over at the Prince of Petworth blog. The first post in that series is here.
