Ward 2 (Georgetown) Ranks #2 For DC Marijuana-Smoking

FROM WASHINGTONIAN: HAVE YOU USED WEED IN THE LAST MONTH?

The marijuana cover story in Washingtonian does have the town buzzing. One of the more interesting graphs shows where in the city the most marijuana is smoked. Ward 1 is first at 11.4% and Ward 2, including Georgetown, comes in second at 10.7%. This is not a surprise at all. At least not in my experience among friends and neighbors. It's just there, a fact of private and social life. If you have not yet read the cover, it is now online and well worth your time: High Society: Washington's Love Affair with Marijuana. It also includes background on the coming dispensaries that will sell medical weed.

THE Q&A CAFE

The Q&A Cafe is now in its 21st year. We launched in October 2001 at Nathans in Georgetown as a response to the September 11 terror attacks, and from that initial purpose grew into a weekly community interview lunch, the first "talk show in a bar." When Nathans closed in 2009 we moved to the Ritz Carlton Hotel and since 2015 our home has been The George Town Club. Some 500 notable individuals, from all fields, have appeared for interviews, which are taped and air Fridays on DC Cable. All are welcomed to attend. For reservations: 202-333-9330.
