Preppy is the New Hipster

So I just read on the DCist that the Capital Tri-athlon is now going to be a "Duathalon". What a bunch of wusses. Teddy Roosevelt used to take foreign heads of state swimming in the Potomac during their diplomatic visits, and he was even a sickly child. So now one hundred years later of the superfreaks who participate in these impossible physical competitions are, thanks to the dc gov, unable to use the great natural resource that is the Potomac. Personally if I voted in this district, I would demand that Mr. Fenti bring back the Potomac! Simply because I just love the image of GWB and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad (“MA”) taking a dip together after a heated debate over nuclear arms. I imagine GWB in oversized board shorts and MA in a little brazilian style short. Teddy would be proud!
