A number of readers sent me links to this yesterday. The Post reports:

D.C. police said a Metro bus driver was charged with assault Saturday after a bizarre incident in which he allegedly punched a patrol officer who was dressed as McGruff the Crime Dog, the popular mascot who educates children about crime prevention.

The driver, Shawn Brim, 39, got out of the bus he was driving at Spring Road and 14th Street NW early Saturday afternoon and punched Officer Tyrone Hardy in the head, police said.

Clearly this oddest story of the year, right?

Remember when these places were opening up all over? Are there any fans out there?


I’ve been really digging porch lamps lately. There are some pretty fresh ones out there. I don’t think there’s enough for “a day” status but allow me to show a few from just one street.


Sometimes I wish we could say the same for some of the neighborhoods in PoPville (see above).


Well, it’s been a while but I’ve been stumped by another flag. A little help?


Thanks to my friend Eric for sending this menu that he and his wife saw last year. Please note the selections in parentheses for numbers 1 and 3.
