alchemy_dcmabjustmab)Tonight at the Palace of Wonders, there will be a very special Weirdo Show.
It's the Big Benefit Bonanza for Johnny and Charon. That’s right, seminal members of the Palace family find themselves in dire need, and the Weirdo Show stands ready to help. At last year’s Palace Anniversary, Johnny was struck by a car which crushed his left leg.
In the intervening year, Johnny has endured too many surgeries to enumerate, and the responsible party has never admitted to having caused the accident.
So hurry hurry, you won’t want to miss a single moment of our astounding assortment of aberrations of nature and culture! And every penny goes to Johnny's medical bills.
one thing that Charon always said to me - "you're family".
Her selflessness has helped shape the dc sideshow, burlesque and vaudeville community into the amazing thing it is today!
Let's show her and Johnny that we all are, in fact, family.
Anyone who would care to help out can paypal a donation to Charon at oddangel dot com. She's on the road working, and will not be able to be at the Palace of Wonders tonight, so she's sent a message to be read to the assembly.
( Letter from Charon Henning )

While Fort Reno Park has one underground and one overground reservoir and a pumping station that brings drinking water to much of the District, the Washington Aqueduct tells WTOP there should be no concern about arsenic affecting your drinking water. The Washington Aqueduct says testing of water coming into and out of the treatment facility does routinely pick up small amounts of arsenic. The EPA maximum arsenic level for safe drinking water is 10 parts per billion. Last year's highest reading from Fort Reno Park was 0.5 parts per billion.
The National Park Service, which made the decision to close the park, is working with the EPA, the District Department of Health and D.C. Public Schools to accurately determine possible public risks and courses of action. Snow fencing on Wednesday morning was set up around the 33-acre federal park at Chesapeake Street and Nebraska Avenue to make sure people stayed out.
Fort Reno Park is one of the highest points in the city, and was involved in the only Civil War battle to take place in the District. It is now the location of an annual free summer concert series.
The report was conducted as part of the USGS's on-going work in the Spring Valley area of Northwest.
