Check out the scissors. But I think the real question is – what are the “Oldies”? Is that like a haircut and oldies playing on the radio? What am I missing here?

Is this Tibet?
Speaking of Tibet how come we haven’t heard a lick about Tibet since the Olympics started? Insane, right?

I’ll be honest, it’s really all about the cool stone levels. Lots of potential here though…

I’m just having a harder time finding cool ones. I like the curved top on this double door.

I thought this was a really unusual corner house. Totally cool but unlike any corner rowhouse I had previously seen. Do you dig?
From a reader:

“This is my dog Rosie. She was born in a shelter in upstate New York. My partner and I fostered the whole litter, so I’ve had Rosie since she was four days old. She’s now thirteen years old, and for the past six years has been working with kids in DC’s elementary schools through a Washington Humane Society humane education program. She’s unfazed by noisy second-graders rushing her in a crowd, screaming “Rosie, Rosie, Rosie!” She keeps her cool, even when kids tell us about their dogs who were stabbed, shot or hit by a car. Rosie radiates love and the kids eat it up.”

I feel like this building has been under construction for ages on New Hampshire Ave a couple blocks south of the Petworth metro. I don’t think it’s the best looking building but I do appreciate that they used brick instead of vinyl for the third floor. So how long does it take for a condo renovation like this to be completed? It’s been years, yeah?
Just curious, what do you think of third floor?

This might be my new favorite. More photos after the jump. (more…)

A friend of mine called me up asking for my recommendations and the only place I could think of was the noodle place on 6th Street in China Town. So help us out! What’s the best Chinese (and Chinese takeout) in the City?
Here were the recommendations for best Latino/Mexican, hidden restaurants, Italian, Sushi, Indian, falafel, Ethiopian, and Middle Eastern.
