Here’s a reader submitted photo of a guy on a roof talking on his cell phone. The reader writes:

“Why is this guy on top of this building? Looks like he was talking on
cell phone. Spotted this as amtrak pulled into union station”

Your captions in the comments and winner picked Friday.


Congrats to Mistr Knucklz with:

“I’d like to buy a vowel, Pat.”

and honorable mention to gardyloo with:

“I guess one of DC’s streetcorner ricin vendors now has a pretty sweet sign.”

I think I have 3 or 4 people I owe shirts to, I’ll try and drop them this weekend. Please email me directly what size you’d like (only M, L, XL, XXL I’m ordering more smalls over the summer) and where I can drop off the shirt.


Times are tough at the Metropolitan Police Department. Your captions in the comments and winner picked Friday. (I still owe a couple of shirts from last week.)


Congrats to Sam with:

“NASA found DC’s pothole riddled streets to be the perfect training ground for the Mars Rover.”

and runner up to Collin with:

“Huh, well that’s funny. This looks nothing like the streetcars we ordered in the catalog.”

You can pick up your t-shirts at the spring happy hour at Social (14th and Meridian Streets, NW).

Ed. Note: I’m fighting a bit of a head cold and sore throat so I’m going to the Irish Whiskey straight away at 7pm, if you get to the hh past 9pm I’d like to apologize in advance for anything I might say…


This may be a really tough caption contest but I thought the scene was quite odd. Why would there be two US flags flying on the same pole? Bizarre yeah?

Like always, your captions in the comments and winner (free PoP t-shirt) picked Friday.


Such a beautiful day so if you’re stuck inside here’s a chance to win a couple of PoP t-shirts. Firstly what is the name of the great chef (pictured above) from Oohhs & Aahhs on U St, NW. Same person can not win both t-shirts.

First person to guess where I took that above photo wins the second contest.


Congrats to KR with:

“A scene from the most boring Day of the Dead party ever”

For some reason this one really cracked me up and I haven’t even seen the Dawn of the Dead movie… KR please email me directly so I can get you a shirt.


I can’t believe some of the things I see. Well, I suppose it could be for chiropractic purposes but I have very high hopes for this caption contest. Your captions in the comments and winner picked Friday.
