From DCPL:
“In celebration of Black Music Month, Go-Go on the Rooftop returns to the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Library. These free Sunday concerts will feature a lineup of established and upcoming Go-Go musicians.
Founded in 2012, the Go-Go Archive was established by the DC Public Library to collect, preserve, and provide access to materials documenting Go-Go music, Washington, D.C.’s official sound. It includes photographs, books, recordings, and other ephemera; oral history interviews and research materials; and archived tweets from the #dontmutedc movement. The archive activates the collection through educational initiatives and cultural events. Each concert will be recorded and added to the Go-Go Archive, furthering its mission to preserve and promote Go-Go music.

Greetings humans, I am Sheba, a canine queen bee ready to find my own royal family. As my royal name suggests, I love to be in the spotlight meeting and greeting my subjects, both human and animal alike, especially on my sniffy walks. I share the royal household with human and feline subjects, and when I get a little too playful for the cat I defer to her and move along.
Befitting of my regal stature, I am house trained and will retire to the privacy of my royal crate when my duties have been fulfilled. I also understand the words “sit”, “stay”, and “no”. Apply to meet me so we can take a walk while we discuss the latest royal canine gossip.
Sam(uel) I am, and a home I need.
As a senior guy, I run at a lower speed.
[except for when I’m nipping on the catnip]
Because I’m in my golden years, I am friendly and calm.
When I want pets, I’ll stick my sweet head in your palm.
I will make you alllll the air biscuits, sending my love your way.
And as a chatty catty, I’ll talk to you as I go about my day.
I love keeping company, but am happy to nap solo.
Let’s curl up on the couch, as you drink your hot cocoa.
Let me be your companion, I’ll be comfortably near while you cook.
Or while you knit or stretch or read a book.
My happy place is in a sunny window, listening to sounds.
And watching the birds in my surrounds.
I hope there is room for happy Sam in your heart.
Come meet me today, let’s not spend another day apart.
XOXO, Samuel

Jeff asks: “Any intel if the empty lot on New Jersey Ave SE and K St in Navy Yard is just being cleaned up for fun, or being prepped for building something?”
“To be clear- friendship animal hospital couldn’t have been at fault, this was all Verizon’s doing.”
“Dear PoPville,
Our beloved miniature dachshund named Pepperoni was having difficulty breathing earlier today and at the recommendation of our normal Vet at Dupont veterinary clinic we brought him to friendship animal hospital for urgent care.
We were waiting all afternoon to hear an update from them and it wasn’t until the doctor taking care of Pepperoni called us from their personal cellphone number that we finally received an update about his status.
Whereupon we discovered that Verizon’s call filter service had marked all 50+ calls from friendship animal hospital’s publicly listed phone number as spam and were subsequently blocked. (more…)
