Friends for peace is easy – how about Enemies for peace?

Thanks to a reader for sending this photo of a super cool double rainbow over 7th Street.

This is one tough door.
Two women in their 20s order drinks at the bar and their toast: “To Restraining Orders!”.

And all these years I thought pineapples grew underground. Reminds me of the time I found out sardines were actually a fish and not a vegetable.

I’ve never seen shrubs planted in flower boxes. And a cool house its in own right.

There was an interesting article in the Post about segregating classes by gender in some elementary schools. These photos are from a school in Bloomingdale near North Capitol. You think it is related?


Thanks to Kalia for sending the info and photos. She writes:
“I drive by the bus stop right across the entrance for the old soldiers home every morning and the last week there have been a couple of guys out there working on those “pegs” out there. Usually I would see people sitting on make shift seats where they took an egg crate and put it upside down on the pegs. They would be out there when no one was there and I always wondered who was the good Samaritan who donated the egg crates for the bus riders there. Some days they would be there, some days not. But just this past week someone was building first a wooden frame around a few pegs, then later were filling it in with cement. yesterday I walked by there by chance and noticed that the benches are finished and that they have crosses cut out of them. Was it a church that donated these benches? Is that public property or does it belong to someone? Do you think they had to get permits? They are wonderful benches and I saw some old soldiers sitting on them today, they looked like they enjoyed them.”

So does anyone know which Church sponsored these benches?

Wow, is this going to be a double pop up? Or just one floor with two sets of windows? At this point, what do you think, will it look alright, or is it going to be a brutal eyesore? Just for reference – below is the only other example of a double pop up I’ve ever seen.
