'If today\'s weren\'t the last installment of Raw Fisher, I might be writing about a small victory -- the District\'s decision yesterday to save the Eastern Branch and two other Boys & Girls Clubs, a cause I\'ve tried to champion here for years -- or about Half A Tank, a new blog chronicling a journey across the Washington region and beyond by a Post photographer and writer searching for the stories of this recession. But today is the end of this particular road, and so I thought I\'d use this last moment to offer readers one final chance to explain...',

' Normally, that\'s a headline you\'d expect to find on a piece about budget cuts or service reductions at the ever-beleaguered D.C. Public Library. But as Raw Fisher moves through its final week here on the big web site, there\'s good news to report about one of my biggest hobbyhorses over the nine years I\'ve been writing the column in The Post: The sorry state of the District\'s public libraries. For the better part of the last decade, I\'ve been hammering at the city government over its failure to invest in turning decrepit, pathetically underused libraries into the kind of...',

'Is Fenty Vulnerable? ',

' Well more than a year before Adrian Fenty asks D.C. voters to grant him a second term, the mayor who won every single precinct in the District in 2006 suddenly seems just slightly vulnerable. You\'d be less than wise to bet even a halfway decent lunch on anyone coming close to Fenty in the 2010 election, but it now appears that at least two of the mayor\'s rivals on the D.C. Council are seriously considering a challenge. Both of the potential rivals are named Brown. Yesterday, several politically connected folks around the city received emails from Marshall Brown, the...',

' The Clarke Courier was a small newspaper for a small place. Its circulation was but 2,240, but in a county of just 14,000 people, that meant that if you wanted to know what was going on in Clarke, you had better check the Courier. No more. The Courier last week became Virginia\'s first paid circulation newspaper to die in the epidemic of closings, layoffs and cutbacks that are part of the dismantling of the American news infrastructure. It won\'t be the last. More than 10,000 journalism jobs have disappeared from U.S. newspapers so far this year, a pittance compared...',

'The first of 1,250 columns, nine years ago, spoke of a time that seems impossible now, of heady young tech moguls flush with money and drunk with possibility, instructing the chef at The Palm in Tysons Corner to spell out \"Netscape\" for them -- in crabmeat. Today\'s is my last column, and as I scan the archives, I see stories of public arrogance and private foibles, but mostly, I see stories of people poking their way through life -- a quest I\'ve tried to capture here a few times each week. Those first columns covered topics that seem all too...',

' A classic Only-In-Washington story is shaping up in Cleveland Park, where Not In My Backyard zealots have managed for years to stymie plans to upgrade a pathetic 1950s supermarket for fear that people might actually drive to it and use it. A relative handful of residents have been able to turn their opposition to Giant\'s expansion plans for its shop on Wisconsin Avenue NW into a virtual roadblock--and that has so frustrated supporters of the plan that some of those supporters decided if you can\'t beat \'em, join \'em. Recently, they signed up as members of the Cleveland Park...',

'',
' At the last three campaign events I\'ve gone to, I\'ve heard exactly the same opposing views from Virginians contemplating the June 9 Democratic gubernatorial primary: \"It\'s only governor, so I don\'t think I need to vote\" runs slam into \"I\'m tired of politics after last year, but this is for governor, so I guess I better get out there and vote.\" In the Washington suburbs, attitudes toward local and state government are different from those in most places around the country. Because of proximity to the District and the large number of people who have some connection to the...',
