Try driving down 13th Street around Girard on a Sat. They are not that regular, I believe the last one was about two months ago. But if you are lucky enough to catch them, they do a great job for only 8 bucks. Plus you are supporting Second Genesis Treatment Center. They help folks out with drug and alcohol addictions as well as needy single parents.


But if a bird escapes isn’t it pretty much gone? Don’t they fly to Queens or something? I think I read an article about all the escaped birds flying to this one tree in Queens. I swear I’m not making this up. I think it was in the New Yorker a few years back… For the record, I do hope they find Timmy.


Thanks to Susan for sending me this phenomenal photo. Sadly, the truck drove for the now defunct Wings n Things restaurant that was located on Kennedy and Georgia. Thankfully this truck will now be memorialized and God willing placed on a t-shirt one day. In case you can’t read it, it says:

“A Chicken Ain’t Nuthin’ But a Chickens Butt…But the Wings the Thing!”


I spotted this sign on the apartment building just north of the Petworth Metro on New Hampshire Ave. I can understand Video surveillance but what exactly is the purpose of audio surveillance? Is that an added deterrent?
