A friend of mine writes on facebook: “Can we talk about how Georgetown Hospital has a full bar complete with flat screen TVs? It seemed an odd amenity for a hospital…”
Ah that’s phenomenal. Sadly my friend dampens my joy a bit when he it explains that it is actually across the parking lot in Darnall Hall. Still pretty convenient…
“Dear PoP,
My husband and I were at Sala Thai (Petworth) this past Saturday for some tasty sushi. I think they usually have live music on Saturdays, and that night was no exception. The band was great, but when they stopped for a break, a uniformed police officer who was eating dinner asked the keyboardist whether he (the officer) could try out the keyboard for a bit. The band had no objection, and the officer proceeded to entertain the restaurant with a few songs (all of which I recognized, but none for which I know the name unfortunately). The officer was great, and the restaurant loved it. Just wanted to give a shout-out both to the band who let it happen and the officer who entertained us.”
I know I should’ve saved this for a caption contest but I needed a smile after the trauma of yesterday’s weather and fire…
This is incredible! Thanks to a reader for sending:
“Michael Jackson shrine house located at 922 8th Street NE.”
I hope it survives the storms…
This one was found in the alley west of the 9th Street across from the convention center.
Located on Allison Street near 7th. If the goat itself wasn’t good enough the fact that it has a chain around the neck totally seals the deal.
This is a sign from a jewelry store on Wisconsin Ave. in Georgetown. I can’t look at this photo without laughing. It is just so insanely random. And of course when I took the photo the store was closed…
When a friend of mine told me about this I didn’t believe her. This is too good. I love that the name is Lightening. My friend writes:
“Lightning lives on Kalorama St and comes out to mosey up and down the street. This is the second time I’ve seen this around 6 or 7 pm on a Friday.”
Well, I thought this was one fine looking birdhouse. Even better if it’s edible, right? Incidentally, has anyone noticed that there are dozens of birdhouses scattered throughout the George Washington University campus?
I love this one. Anyone recognize where it’s from?
Found this one on upper 14th 16th Street. Is that a birdhouse on top? If it is – this is clearly the greatest firebox conversion in the city…
