Hollywood in Washington II

Project Beltway

I love this guy.

He goes by Hollywood, you might remember him.

He’s fascinating to talk to; we must have talked for 45 minutes there on the corner of 14th & P before heading in to Sav-On for a beer (he introduced me to the owner, whose name he insisted is also Sav-On).

Anyway, while we were in there another customer stopped to say hello and said that she’d seen Hollywood ever since she was a little girl growing up in NE Washington. It was like she was meeting a movie star a little bit. I love what she said next: “He is just himself. Northeast, Southeast, Northwest, Southwest, he IS Washington.”

    mmm…. i don’t know. he looks pretty good, but i think the pants should be a little more fitted. i’d have chosen low-top sneakers, too.

    How about an interview? It’d be really interesting, in a George Clinton kinda way. Any kind of way actually.
