Cart.jpg

Airport baggage cart at Metro Center. It’s a long way from home at DCA, the poor lost dear. Will it ever return to roll the hallowed halls of National? (Cart.jpg uploaded by brownpau.)

WTFire.jpg

This firetruck just pulled up in front of Union Station, horn and sirens blaring, but I didn’t see a fire. Probably a medical emergency or Mooninites or something. (WTFire.jpg uploaded by brownpau.)

TrackWrk.jpg

Track work on the Red, Yellow, AND Green Lines. Wow, this Cherry Blossom Festival weekend on the Metro is going to be awesome. (TrackWrk.jpg uploaded by brownpau.)

USPSR2D2.jpg

One of those Star Wars mail boxes sits outside the post office at Union Station. It does not roll around the station, beeping, nor does it project holos of Carrie Fisher, nor does it perform astromech droid functions on Rebel Alliance fighter spacecraft.

Eagle and lobster ornaments cling to the rim of some kind of round wooden vessel at A.C. Moore. Shopping around New Jersey. (EagLob.jpg uploaded by brownpau.)

Big crowd at Union Station waiting for a delayed MARC Penn Line train. It arrived as I snapped this, and the mass of humanity cascaded out and disappeared through the gates in the span of 30 seconds. (Crowd.jpg uploaded by brownpau.)

No Cubes?

Amy got me this Arlington pen in the course of her work for the county. It’s a nice pen, with a wavy pocket clip and a rubber grip, and the name of the county and state on it, but we were wondering about that weird logo. What does it mean? No cubes? No squares? No […]

LOST 3.10-3.12: Dharma Van, Football, Star Wars

Spoilers ahead. Close your eyes! Previously on LOST, Hurley found a Vee Dub in the woods, got it running with help from Charlie, Sawyer, and Jin, then drove it off frame with a swell of music. The next episode, he’s playing table tennis with Sawyer and doesn’t even mention the van. What happened to it? […]
