Thanks for letting us know about this? anyone been to Busboys and Poets?
Don't miss your chance to sit down with the provocative and side- splitting columnist over lunch and see why Dave Barry calls Gene Weingarten "outrageously funnyÂ…literally: He is guaranteed to outrage some. But if you're smart, you'll absolutely love him." As the humor writer for The Washington Post, Gene Weingarten's column "Below the Beltway" has appeared weekly in the Post's Sunday magazine since July, 2000, and has been distributed nationwide. "Below the Beltway" examines life in all its absurdity. It good-naturedly traffics in ridicule, character assassination, and intelligent smart-aleckry. It stimulates that part of the brain that wants to laugh but isn't sure it should. Weingarten also hosts a highly popular Washington Post online chat that fearlessly plumbs current events, politics, philosophy, medicine, the art of comic strips, the protocols of gender, and even the indelicacy of bodily functions. Experience includes a $50 gift certificate to Busboys and Poets in the U Street Corridor to be used at a mutually convenient date and time with Mr. Weingarten. The lunch is for up to two individuals with Mr. Weingarten. The certificate is for Mr. Weingarten's lunch as well as the winner and guest, if there is one. Any cost over the value of the certificate must be paid by winning bidder. Courtesy of Gene Weingarten and Busboys and Poets, www.busboysandpoets.com. Winner will be sent certificate for this experience. Current bid is $205.87.
