De-Lurking Day(s)

Apparently, last Wednesday was De-Lurking Day -- at least so according to the food-loving DCFoodies.com. Since over here at DCFUD we're always a bit behind schedule, we're declaring today and tomorrow DCFUD de-lurking days.

We know you're out there. We can read server logs. We see you floating in from various government agencies, reputable (and not so reputable) publications, and corporations and non-profit organizations whose acronyms we can't even begin to decipher.

We're not asking you to unmask your identity. But we are flesh and blood and we, too, crave love. So if you've been enjoying DCFUD the last few months, have been hating DCFUD the last few months, or just stumbled upon us today, please leave us a note in the comments. Let us know your favorite restaurant in the D.C. metropolitan area, offer suggestions on spices, or simply say "Hi, DCFUDders!" But please let us know you're out there!

On a related note, DCFUD needs some new writers. We'll probably post more on this in the coming days, but if you like what you've seen here and want to contrinbute, send an email to dcfud.writers@gmail.com with an example or two of writing you've done (nothing formal necessary) and/or some topics you'd like to post on. This is, of course, unpaid. But it gives you a good excuse to eat out and try new recipies. Plus, you can claim you're a blogger within the great Smorgasblog family of bloggers. It's a great way to pickup guys or girls at your local hipster party. Really. I swear.
