I started Wallyhood back in 2008, right when my son was born, because I realized I had lived in the neighborhood since 1993 and didn't really know my neighbors. I figured writing a blog about what was going on around me would be a good way to meet people and help other people do the same. As the years progressed, those neighbors have picked up the torch and it is now a group effort, which I adore. I moved out of Wallingford for a few years (2020 - 2025), but I'm back, now living with my wife, son and dog (Dillinger) up in Tangletown.

    Has anybody noticed that Open Book’s “closed” sign appears right before the store’s name? When they are closed, it appears as if the store is called “Closed Open Books” 😉

    I think this is a failblog fail since given the usual quality of their jokes the spelling is probably intenti…intensio…on purpose.

    (Though they did use an upside down comma for the apostrophe…)

    I spoke to them when they put this sign up, right after they removed the “now hiring” announcement… and yes “synonym” is incorrectly spelled on purpose.

    You knew it had to happen: the failblog went mainstream to the point where it’s meta.
