Adams Morgan: not just for skanks anymore
The unemployed and destitute of this town could do a lot better for themselves if they got off their fat asses and showed some initiative -- and not just sending out a resume here and there, either. I'm talking about taking some real initiative and putting some elbow grease into searching for what you want and going for it:
D.C. police are investigating 18 armed robberies, 17 of which occurred within a mile-and-a-quarter of each other in Northwest between Monday night and yesterday morning.Police say at least two robbers using as many as four different cars held up pedestrians at gunpoint in and around Adams Morgan between 9:30 p.m. Monday and 5:40 a.m. yesterday, stealing a car, assaulting one victim and injuring another.
"I cannot recall in my career that many robberies occurring in such a small amount of time possibly committed by the same suspects," said Metropolitan Police spokesman Sgt. Joe Gentile.
Well, you can't call them lazy.
And about the headline: I was just kidding. Adams Morgan is still just for skanks.
