I was fascinated by this standoff of a chicken (rooster?) and a tortoise from Columbia Heights Day. Seems ripe for a caption contest. Your caption in the comments, winner announced Friday.

I think between these two guys they must’ve been carrying over 200 keys… Your caption in the comments winner announced Friday.

Congrats to Bryan:

“If the Jefferson’s a rockin’ don’t come a knockin’.”

A little background for this one. The Jefferson Hotel is one of the nicest hotels in the city located at 1200 16th Street, NW. It’s Web site says:
“The Jefferson has long been known as Washington, DC

From LJG:
“Anticipating weekend events.”

Congrats to MnomeNa:
“Only two hours earlier these bikes were going about their daily business, peacefully loitering in Pershing Park.
120 minutes and one All Hands on Deck later, they were all hogtied and in transit to a mass holding cell downtown.
Peter Nickels could not be reached for comment.”
It’s a complicated one but I dig it.

I thought this was a pretty hilarious sight. I’m sure there is a reason for it but I couldn’t quite figured it out. Hopefully you guys can in the captions. Winner announced Friday.
