Dino love…
From @steve_marx33
Last nite, dinner for 4 at Dino’s in Cleveland Park, DC. Great from start to finish. And reasonably priced. Downpour at end not their fault.

Brunch buzz…
From @LindsayDinsyDay
Brunch at Pulpo in Cleveland Park dc is completely amazing. $25 all you can eat and drink is my kind of deal.

Oh dear…
From @RebeccaShabad
OH in #WoodleyPark Starbucks. “Cleveland Park Grill kind of sucks.” #goodtoknow

Development controversy…
From @ClevePkHistory
3211 Wisconsin, the green frame house near Macomb, has a reprieve. We will post any further developments on our… http://t.co/F6QbDmrG

Good to hear…
From @BluFable
petco in Cleveland Park has great customer service!

Ward 3 Problems…
I could walk to the grocery store with my cart but how often do any of us do that anymore? Two hundred fifty dollars and 8 bags later we would all prefer to be able to load that stuff into our car and drive it home.

Loud speakers with bad sound? Please don’t give to anyone in my building…
We are giving away a pair of big speakers purchased in 1984. They are in great physical condition given their age, but they don’t have premium sound. However, they still function well and can get very loud if you want.

Clearly, everyone should read the listserv
A young man representing Verizon rang our doorbell…I did not have the time to hear him out because I was preparing for a dinner guest…After I closed the door I couldn’t help but ask myself, how desperate could Verizon be that they have to send people door to door to sell their service. Maybe they should read this listserv once and a while and see how many subscribers complain about Verizon…

Verizon may not read the listserv, but apparently RCN employees do!
I just wanted to weigh in with my recent experience with RCN. They are fantastic! My new building has Comcast and RCN. After talking with both and reading reviews on Yelp, RCN was the clear winner and my experience with them from selection, to the set-up techs to their new DVR service is awesome!

The Linus of Cleveland Park?
I am in search of a missing baby blanket. It was lost last night between Cleveland Park and Van Ness, possibly on Metro. It is solid aqua on one side (plush) and multi-colored modern bird pattern on the other. It is a treasured blanket…

Pulpo has some great happy hour specials too. Check them out (and all the other places to get tasty food and drink deals) in our day-by-day happy hour guide.

Palena for fun!
From @TweetsByDiane
Check out Palena just for fun. The front bar section is more affordable than the back. Cleveland Park metro stop.

Yummy…
From @DadisiSPEAKS
Yeah, I REALLY need some of this in my life today. STOP calling me Ice Cream. You’re ev @ Cleveland Park DC http://t.co/NfE60eSx

Must have missed the Sugar Magnolia sign…
From @Scandiphile
At Ripple in Cleveland Park (hopefully not named after the Grateful Dead song). http://t.co/ng8hrvGf

Library love…
From @caribbean_apple
@dcpl The Cleveland Park branch has the best customer service ever! I got there as it was closing, but was helped nonetheless!

Smart…
From @kimblem
Virginia is not an acceptable substitute. Thinking Cleveland Park instead.

Mixed love for Firehook…
From @ZanderDC
Firehook in Cleveland Park finally staffed up and the line moves quicker. Coffee still sucks though!

Not what you want to hear…

The cleveland park metro is an effin sauna.

Drinking a four Loko outta a paper bag walking all the way to Cleveland park. #ghettoasfuck cause #Idontgiveafuck #exercise

Take that!
I was just approached for the second time this summer by a guy in a car, this time at Woodley Road and Cathedral. He starts out, “Excuse me, my daughter’s out at Sibley Hospital…” I last encountered him two months ago near Two Amy’s, so he works our broad neighborhood. He tells a long story about his daughter at Sibley with a rare diagnosis … I’m ashamed to say that I gave him 20 bucks the first time. Fool me once, shame on you. This time I called him a jerk and he drove away.

Rocking optional…
We are selling a funky easy chair (that has rocking option) with a matching ottoman, all in a red velvet floral motif pattern, for $100. It’s in good shape

Not lasting long in this neighborhood…
Free Beer Equipment Is Gone. The beer making equipment has been taken. Thanks to all.

Watch Caddyshack…
I have a 3″ perfectly round hole in my yard that goes straight down about a foot and then turns. I don’t think its a mole because there is no displaced dirt at the entrance. Does anyone else have this kind of creature?

Care to estimate the trade off between being great for kids and young professionals bolting the other way…
I’d like to second that — Dino is a great place for kids. $1 per year of age is a great deal, there are plenty of options, and the staff is very relaxed and cool about having youngsters around.

A mattress does not a bed make…
Does anyone have a double mattress with or without bed they would like to unload?

From Washington Post…
Klingle Road trail is closer to reality but still years off
“A federal judge has dismissed a lawsuit challenging the decision to formally close a portion of Klingle Road NW to traffic, ending the last serious bid to reopen a street connection across Rock Creek Park that has been severed since a 1990 sewer collapse.”

From Washington Examiner…
THE 3-MINUTE INTERVIEW: Ketura Persellin
“Persellin, a Cleveland Park resident, holds a doctorate in English and started her career as a writer, but for the past several years she’s worked as an image consultant — essentially, running a D.C. version of “What Not to Wear.”"

What $3,000 Rents You in DC
“Tucked away in Cleveland Park is the Archstone 2501 Porter, a luxury high-rise apartment building that offers high-end features like a concierge service, a dry-cleaner and an online rent payment option. “

What do you think readers? Did the Post get it right? What’s your favorite Cleveland Park business that’s missing from the GOG guide?

Wet, rainy Sunday in the neighborhood…
From @AllyJenkinsDC
So weird. It’s MONSOONING in Cleveland Park.

Now that’s a great solution…

True and its unlikely to change anytime soon…
From @floridagirlindc
Unfortch, Cleveland Park has the crappiest coffee options in the city. Firehook works. I usually drive elsewhere.

Cleveland Park, land of the doppelgangers…

@StetsOnStets So I thought I saw you in Cleveland park tonight again and I was yelling at this random lady for like 10 mins…
