Cinema & spice

For all those D.C. residents who want to check out the Kennedy Center but don’t have the desire to see the National Symphony Orchestra or Shear Madness, the next two weeks provide you with a perfect reason: The American Film Institute Theater is hosting the fifth Latin American Film Festival from Sept.

Barefoot and pregnant?

I am done with white girls and I am definitely done with cellulite. All I want these days is a nice down-to-earth Taiwanese girl who can make me traditional Taiwanese dinners. Is this asking for too much? I greet this question with a resounding no?I mean, packing lunches and cuisine with a more pan-Asian flavor is strictly optional (knowing how to cook up a mean dika misua may be a requisite but unagi-don or dolsot bibimbop is entirely up to her).

The Masterz

William “Hootie” Johnson is not a media-savvy guy. In fact, Hootie, the head of Augusta National Golf Club, the most famous golf course in the country and site of the Masters tournament, is a total idiot.

Beirut 101

Some call it beer pong; others refer to it as “beirizzy in the hizzy.” You can call it whatever you want, as long as you acknowledge that Beirut is the best game, ever. we ex-high school jocks can’t get enough of it. If we go one night without the feeling of that ping-pong ball on our fingertips, we get the jitters.
