And so began my tour of DC’s newest art gallery located in the U Street neighborhood. I had the opportunity to get a sneak preview of the ME Art gallery located on 1119 V Street, NW and opens this Friday, November 9th. The space is truly a unique one led by a unique individual, Eric Ginsburg. The space is quite small but well used. When you first enter you will see a display of Mr. Ginsburg’s art, which he calls Ericsdogs. The press release describes his work: “Ginsburg is known for his humanistic approach to dog and animal paintings. Because of this unique point of view, Ginsburg’s work is known to have a particularly bright emotional and whimsical style.” Now back to Yoko Ono’s tit, drawn by Yoko Ono herself by the by, after the jump.

I really like the old posters adorning the Tivoli. Next time you are there check them out, there are some pretty cool ones.

I guess developers were a little more modest back in the day…

I get it. Cardozo was a Supreme Court justice. But that has got to be the worst name for a mascot. Maybe the Fightin’ Clerks would be a bit better…

Remember Run DMC’s style from the 80s with those big gold chains? I swear the style is coming back. I’ve seen a number of young kids sporting those huge gold chains on the metro. Have you guys seen this too?
In that spirit, I’ll leave you with some DMC poetry:
Now Dr. Seuss and Mother Goose both did their thing
But Jam Master’s gettin loose and D.M.C.’s the king
Cause he’s adult entertainer
Child educator
Jam Master Jay king of the crossfader
He’s the better of the best best believe he’s the baddest
Perfect timin when I’m climbin I’m a rhymin apparatus
Lot of guts
When he cuts
Girls move their butts
His name is Jay hear the play he must be nuts
And on the mix real quick and I’d like to say
He’s not Flash but he’s fast and his name is Jay

I like Ruby Tuesday. Ok, I’m a little embarrassed to admit it. And I’m not saying I want blocks and blocks of chain restaurants but if I want to stuff my face with cheap tasty food and have a huge sundae for dessert I’m glad I have that option at Ruby Tuesday. Truth be known, I’d rather have an Olive Garden but I’ll take what I can get.
Believe me, I am super psyched to have real authentic ethnic restaurants, I’m just saying one little chain isn’t so bad (as long as its not a slippery slope). So be brave, admit it too, you kind of like Ruby Tuesday…

Apparently I’ve been walking by Duke Ellington’s childhood home almost everyday and didn’t even know it. I think it is the 1800 block of 13th Street.
