Nicki Miller and I took a spin to Baltimore to catch Taalam Acey at the Historic Arena Players. Mariposa in College Park featured Wordwrights Publication readers, headed by Ron Baker of the famous Argonne Hotel. And on this Monday, July 24, I celebrate my birthday with a jaunt to 13 Bar Lounge in New York, where the Providence and D.C. slam teams will compete with Guy LeCharles Gonzalez's Union Square home team. Happy birthday to me. D.C. August 5-7.
