It was nice to see this guy making balloon animals for the kids at the corner of 14th and Irving, NW (near the CH metro). And the tips are going to a good cause.
I wonder, though, if this is just another sign of the bad economy.

Per a reader’s suggestion – it’s time for a new PoP contest. I think this is gonna be a good one. There will be three categories. First is best vegetable garden, second is best flower/plant garden and third is best apt./condo/balcony garden. Please send your entries to princeofpetworth (at) gmail (dot) com. In the subject line specify which category you are entering and if possible please attach your photo to the email. Also please mention what neighborhood your garden is from.

Another sign lover seems to have salvaged this sign. I saw it in someone’s yard on Sherman Ave. It says “Mad T Music Box”. They have to get hooked up again. I bet it looks super fresh with the neon shining. Anyone know where this sign came from? A former DC spot?

Anyone know what the story is with “I Am” Temple? This sign is located on Calvert in Woodley Park. Pretty sweet quotation marks.

“So, what do you do for a living?”
“I collect blood, urine & body fluids for testing. What do you do?”
I shudder to think what the body fluids are…

A reader sent in this photo saying:
She saw this truck “on the 300 block of T Street Saturday night . . . I guess this means someone has a haunted house?”
Then I was at Wonderland and someone said they have lived in a house that had a ghost. So I thought I’d throw this out there – anyone ever live in a haunted house? If so describe what you saw/heard. I wonder if these guys have them music? Dang now the Ghost Busters tune is totally stuck in my head…

This one on Georgia Ave made me chuckle a bit. Aren’t all pharmacies professional…?

This sign is from H Street, NE cracked me up. Too good.
They also have a pretty fancy security grill:
