From Dr. Clock’s facebook (thanks to Barred in DC for the tweet):
“September will be the last month for the Clock, guys and gals, as I’ve decided to partner up at Steel Plate over in Brookland. There will assuredly be ample Clockisms, and I encourage you to mosey through and scope it all out once the move is complete.
The Clock space will go back to being the upstairs of Rendezvous Lounge.
Until later, friends – Van“
“Dear PoPville,
