Spotted in Clarendon: Hello Kitty SLK

I'm pretty certain that is not the original color.

This past weekend was a great exotic car spotting time in Clarendon. I caught glimpses of toy cars like a Ferrari 458, Lamborgini, and a SLS. But nothing was as eye catching as the bright pink Mercedes SLK 230 on display at Best Auto Sales. It was sitting prominately at the corner of Wilson and 10th Street, but I can't find it on their website. Did they already find a buyer that wanted to complete their life size Barbie dreamhouse collection?

I would much rather ride in the 850 sitting close by though...

Clarendon makes you lose your underwear

Walking down Highland Street on this nice summer day, I was surprised to find a pair of woman's underwear found discarded on the sidewalk. Since the neighborhood offers much nightlife entertainment mixing young people and alcohol, it isn't that shocking but more humorous.

Except this was at 9pm. A little early for losing ones underthings in public, isn't it?

My mind is instantly filled with questions: How did they get here? Surely these things do not just fall off. Possibly someone threw it at a pedestrian as they drove past as a joke?

And then more questions: How long would this lacy thing stay on the street corner? Maybe this is a Punked style setup, waiting to see which wierdo picks up discarded underwear.

Another night where I thank Clarendon for providing me with a silly story.

CVS is ripping me off

Someone got a little bored working at the CVS on 10th and Washington Blvd today. Guess playing with the pricing gun kills some time. And makes for a good photo op.
