That is a good line. Personally I like to snort cocaine off naked bodies eat my sushi while trotting on horseback but to each their own.
Here’s the skinny from Sakerum:
“Naked Sushi at Sakerum Part II
Our first naked sushi event was such a success that we are bringing it back for a Halloween edition! We will once again again featuring two models (one male and one female) and master sushi chefs to delight all audiences. (more…)

“Not sure what this is but it was quite a surprise to find in our garden! (We moved in a few months ago and haven’t done anything to/with the yard yet.) Can anyone identify it or suggest when we should harvest it?”
If you get a great haul send a photo and a description to [email protected] and please include what neighborhood you grew them in. Contest goes through Labor Day weekend.
Great Garden Haul is made possible by a generous grant from the Ben and Sylvia Gardner foundation.
Welp, when in Rome. When in Rome.
Thanks to a reader for sending from the Georgia Ave Walmart Uptown.

“The stoplights at 16th and Irving, NW. I think they change between a dash and a triangle. For colorblind drivers?”
Anyone else seen of these around town?
“Dear PoPville,
We live in a row house in upper Columbia Heights, a house that has two front entrances — the main entrance is up onto our porch, and there is a lower basement entrance that is down 4 steps. The porch is 8 or so feet deep and creates a small walkway below the porch up to the basement entrance. I recently found a pile of coins — $2.28 to be exact — sitting on that walkway. Were we the mistaken beneficiaries of DC’s tooth fairy? Has anyone else had a similar discovery? Who’s got a compelling story to explain this? (more…)
A Great Garden Haul? Halp!! Thanks, I think, to Cassandra for sending from Adams Morgan. Apparently Le Bustiere shall curse us with this scene every August. It’s still better than the bunny heads.
hahaha of course we do!! Thanks to WD for sending.
“Dear PoPville,
At Garfield and 34th St. NW.
Weather station or red ballon tracking station?”
“Dear PoPville,
While you’re on the topic of Google Street Views – WHAT IS THIS?!
This location is not labeled on Google Maps or Microsoft Maps. But it’s clearly being utilized (cars are there, etc.). What is it?”

On Thursday I asked what is this ridiculousness? seen in the photo below. It was a huge fence only facing one side and it was ridiculous. So many questions. Anyway, on Saturday I saw the current set up of a now smaller fence and totally out of proportion giant door (photo above.) Many questions remain.

Today I share the prescient words of the great Albert Camus:
“Basically, at the very bottom of life, which seduces us all, there is only absurdity, and more absurdity. And maybe that’s what gives us our joy for living, because the only thing that can defeat absurdity is lucidity.”
