The Soul Day Spa and Salon painted over its awesome sign. I loved that sign. I hope they paint a new one. New paint job below. (more…)


I know it’s a little odd since it’s a funeral home but it really is a sweet sign, yeah?


Wow, when did the Angry Inch bar on 18th Street in Adams Morgan change it’s name? I think this new sign looks pretty ridiculous. Do you like this sign?

So what’s the story here, is this a new bar? Is it any good?


I like it even if it is only a banner. Speaking of EL Haynes, I’d like to congratulate them on some good math and reading improvements.

“E.L. Haynes Public Charter School made dramatic 19- and 18- percentage point gains in Math and Reading, respectively, on the 2008 DCCAS, reaching Adequate Yearly Progress and demonstrating the strength of its academic model. These gains outperformed the District’s already-impressive statewide gains by nearly 3-to-1 in Reading and nearly 2-to-1 in Math. E.L. Haynes also more than doubled the percentage of students scoring at Advanced levels in both categories; 25% of Haynes students are Advanced in Math.”


Right? It looks like someone is getting abducted from behind. That certainly doesn’t indicate a safe place to me. Right? My safe place sign would have a picture of Elle Macpherson, a few meximelts from Taco Bell, some Dunkin Donuts coffee and maybe a couple of bottles of Budweiser. Then I’d know it was a safe place for sure.


Big Monkey Comics on 14th Street has a sweet new sign and sculpture above it. Monkeys are pretty fresh, no doubt about it.
