On the YouTubes: We Watch the Reston Association Videos So You Don't Have To

Check out Andy Sigle, complementing his dulcet tones by rocking out a snazzy suit! This early June edition of "Reston Today" talks about the upcoming Reston festival, celebrating Reston's 46th birthday on July 10-11, plus the Reston Youth Network. Kathleen Driscoll-McKee invites us -- well, really she invited Andy, not us -- to her home for a "rap session" about her goals as RA President, which apparently include reminding people that for "authentic news" about Reston, "they need to look to the RA," not some filthy "web log" or the rapidly decreasing number of "news-papers" serving the area. She also tells a joke about commuting when she first moved to Reston: "People asked if I had a jet because there were no roads," she says. Also, we wonder if the canoe sailing placidly by in the opening shot of the video is flying the flag of the Marshall Islands, but maybe that's just us.

    I think there's a burr in the RA saddle concerning "AUTHENTIC" news . . . sounds a little like trying to shape their own First Amendment according to RA...

    For the real truth of what's happening in Reston just look at the glossy pages of Reston Magazine of very happy smiling people well satisfied with the job that their home owners association is doing.

    Hey, Kathleen, that's some awesome looking earth-toned T-111 that you've got there.

    T-111? Soon to be redeveloped? Did anyone tell Kathleen?

    Did you all see the evil glare she gave when she said to look to RA for authentic news? That was NO JOKE. Made me scared....
    Stay strong Restonian!

    Naw... Andy is too nice to ever be the Restonian.. and as for Kathleen's "evil glare".. I think it was just trying to look into the TV lights. You try it sometime without squinting.
