He has won "Local Personality" by "Creative Loafing" for many a year, and that should say just enough! He even has his own sign on Ponce and Briarcliff/ Moreland Ave. (look at my pics!)

Like the Big Chicken, Coca Cola, and the Bicycle Shorts Man, Blondie is an Atlanta institution…read more Big, brassy, buxom and not afraid to, um, let it all hang out, Blondie is like a black Mae West with restraint issues. Blondie and the Clermont Lounge are usually inseparable, but if relative newcomer Baton Bob deserves his own Yelp page, so does Blondie. She's been dancing here longer than you've probably been alive. She danced to the flickering glow of Sherman's smoldering Atlanta. The continents drifted apart and yet she still danced. Like a force of nature, Blondie's been dancing since the beginning of time. Poet, comic book super hero, stripper extraordinaire, Blondie is faster than a speeding Jager shot, more powerful than an aluminum beer can. A true Renaissance woman, if Leonardo da Vinci crushed beer cans with his breasts (and who says he didn't?), he would still pale in comparison to our own Blondie. So bask in Blondie's glory, each and every one of you, for the tide is nigh. I urge all you aspiring Bumsteads to go ahead and purchase an angry, angry lap dance. For then, and only then, will you truly see the face of God. Seen most likely through a detached retina.

The dancers also have a disgusting habit of peeing in the dressing room trash can. Also, every security guard besides Dee is virtually useless. You're welcome.

Ponce City Market is definitely worth checking out if you're in Atlanta. The building itself is…read morebeautiful, blending historic charm with a modern industrial feel, and it's a fun place to spend a few hours. That said, I expected more food options since it was highly recommended and often compared to Chelsea Market in New York City. While there are some great places to eat, the selection wasn't as extensive as I had imagined. The shops are also somewhat limited, but there are still a few unique local businesses worth browsing. My favorite part was the Citizens Market , where several local vendors are all in one space. It was a great way to sample different local offerings. Another bonus is its location right next to the Atlanta BeltLine. After exploring the market, you can take a walk along the trail and discover even more shops, restaurants, public art, and neighborhoods nearby. Parking can get busy, especially on weekends, but it's still worth a visit if you're exploring Atlanta. While it didn't quite live up to my expectations, I'm glad I stopped by and would recommend checking it out at least once.

You've seen the green little…read morebuilding at the corner of Charles Allen and 10th St. If it's sunny, there's a line of people, some curious gawkers, others dancing the always recognizable pee-pee dance. What kind of E-Ticket curiosity could lead to such a line? Are they queuing up for Hannah Montana tickets? Perhaps a Disneyesque ride? My friends, they're lining up to see the frakin' robot bathroom. The ominous silver door slides open, Star Trek-style, to reveal a high-tech room where touching surfaces is pared down to a minimum. Of course, I did notice the signs were all in braille which found me pitying the poor blind guy who's got to feel his way around the walls of a public bathroom. Nevertheless, the door slides open where you are greeted with a gentle, but prodding metallic voice commanding you to press the blue button and shut the door. You have 20 seconds to comply. Once the door is closed, the disembodied robot bathroom voice informs you that you have ten minutes to do your business. Programmed as such, no loitering or heroin fixes here. No sex either, but only because I wouldn't know what to do with the other eight minutes. Blue buttons abound within this iron giant. Press this for toilet paper. Press this for paper towels. Press this to find Sarah Connor. The strains of Burt Bacharach's "What the World Needs Now" (no lie) float through the air as you face the stainless steel Fiesta Bowl. Similarly, the sink is a stainless steel indentation in the wall that selectively spurts out soap, water and hot air, depending on your hand placement. The toilet flushes either when you start washing your hands or when the door opens to let you out. Yes, depending on when the toilet flushes, the line outside will know if you washed your hands, so wash those filthy things, Skippy. We know where they've been. Press the blue button to let yourself out. Make sure to stand facing the door when it slides open and ask the crowd outside, "Excuse me, is this the sixth floor?" They love that, especially the guy whose been waiting for 15 minutes doing the pee-pee dance two people back. Every few visitors or so, the door will stay shut for an extended period of time (a few minutes) while the bathroom (or at least the toilet) cleans itself. I think that's what was happening at least. It was either doing that, or it was plotting the destruction of the human race. Robots are like that, you know. So flying cars and jet packs? Not yet. Moon bases and time travel? Not quite. But the future of robot bathroom technology is right here in Piedmont Park. And it is beautiful. End of line.

Trust me when I say that it isn't fun, especially when you're on the 7th or 8th weekend in a row. When there's a festival at Piedmont Park, you're in luck. The Robot Bathroom will likely have a line, but it's worth it. The seat is cleaned after each patron. There's room to move about. It has light and a full length mirror. But best of all? AIR CONDITIONING. Thank you, Robot Bathroom, for providing a quick 5 minute non-stinky respite for those of us who need it. You don't know how nice it is to have a place where you can reapply your lipstick in quiet, cool peace after 6 hours in the blazing sun.

Originally installed in 2015 as a temporary show of pride during the cities pride festivities, they were formally put down as a permanent part of the city in 2017. The date of official addition to the city streets in 2017 was special for the celebrated community, as it focused on adding bright color to a dark day in history as it marked the one year anniversary of the Pulse Nightclub shooting. The crosswalks are now part of the cities cultural landscape and are celebrated far and wide! I have visited this block and the local restaurants and bars that call it home for many years and I must say that it is a lot more fun to visit since these crosswalks were permanently added! It may be color on the street, but being able to see such a bright representation of being loved is an amazing feeling!
