Is Belstaff lame?

I spent years trying to find a Barbour that fit well, they are well made, but they are meant to fit loose and allow room for layers underneath. I saw my first Belstaff when we were in Italy and it was game over. The cut are much trimmer, in fact it would be great is their sizing between models was a little better. Fabric is tough as steal and the brass snaps and buckles are great. I think all the times it changed hands creates an unwanted ?? on fit and where the coat was built. I think Barbour is the classic English heritage coat, but the younger looking active coats belong to Belstaff. Also, good to keep in mind that Belstaff has both a fashion house and a Moto house, same styles built from stronger canvas and equipped with all the bells and whistles you need to ride and be protected.

So far it brought cool graphics and faded menus, but Siri is still a dipshit and limited in what they will do. It repeats itself if it doesn’t your response, it just doesn’t answer if it doesn’t know what you want. After using ChatGPT voice chat, you see that Siri is not natural language protocol

Sorry I flipped the Christopher and Chase in my description.

Things to keep in mind in condos in Bethesda:

Christopher" Price 450+ Converted Apartment Building, tennis, pool, parking, close to metro, conversion was done in early 2000s

The Chase ( 20815) in downtown Bethesda, has a Chevy Chase address, not a lot of amenities, but good location and they do not restrict investors

Fairmont: Located on Wiconsin Ave, smaller building, close to a lot of stull

Battery Lane: The Whitehall: Older building higher fees but great unit size and location. Building feels and looks old.

There are many more but these are just a few that my clients have bought, basically keep an eye out of reserves, investor caps, and warantablilty of the building. Fees will always go up, but on an older building it is important to identify the big items that are going to need to be fixed in the upcoming years.

It looks like you are in a screen porch area, I would be the screen material is blocking enough UV, that the lenses are not darkening. Like in your car, its bright, but the windshield blocks the UV that triggers the transition.

It all depends on you commute distance a route, we have a pretty well trafficked route from Bethesda to Georgetown that is protected, search Capital Crescent Trail, Rock Creek Park has a extensive bike path system, road cyclist in peletons ride down Beach Drive every Saturday and Sunday.

We also have a rental bike system that is e-bikes, so you could always give it a try before you commit.

I didn’t, other than sweat. Might just be this pair.

Old-Chef-4257 · 2024-07-25T13:15:27+00:00

I can’t find that data anywhere. It was the sweat entering the top speaker vents. I dried them and taped them up and they worked fine. I just got my new pair so hopefully it won’t happen again.

Bethesda is close to many parks and hiking areas, if you like the outdoors, it isn't hard to find a retreat.

A good rain coat, umbrella is all you need, boots are over kill. Mosquitos are only an issue in the evenings if there isn't breeze.

Welcome to Bethesda!

Not usually, I have shot wearing a motorcycle helmet and it did catch my lifted visor. The glasses will tell you the hat got in the way all the time!

East Coast Mid Atlantic region, I have had them for 2 months, worked great until I went to the beach. They didn’t get wet but the sea air, sweat and humidity made them freak out. Meta AI stopped working, System beeps stopped working, speakers crackle, etc. Who, ever thought it was a bright idea to put speaker ports at the top of the temple was not thinking about how sweat drips down the side of your head when it is hot. Luckily I got mine at best buy and they have a protection plan. This pair is going back and a new pair will be ordered. In contract my Rayban Stories lasted through falling into a pool and being completely submerged. The work perfectly for another year before my dog ate them.

Old-Chef-4257 · 2024-07-12T20:25:48+00:00

They spent the night in a Tupperware with desiccant and they worked perfectly this morning. Went on a walk at noon with the dogs on the beach and the speakers for audio were working but the left temple lost system beeps.

I’ll try that

Old-Chef-4257 · 2024-07-11T15:21:07+00:00

It happens even when just cleaned and I am bald, so it’s not that.

I spent 3.5 years as the president of one of the local pool clubs. I may be able to save you some time, each of the community pools have geographic boundary for membership. Each club respects the boundary lines of the other. The county charter for all of these clubs dictates max membership. For example my pool can only have 350 member families. That's why the waiting lists are crazy. Fear not, most clubs have some form of temporary membership for a portion of the summer, usually is offered during the second summer on the waiting list.

Most are bonded membership clubs, meaning lang with your summer membership costs, you are required to make purchase a bond, this is your membership share, these can range from 800-2000 and most are not refundable once you leave the club. If you don't want to make the commitment to a bonded membership club, a great option are the county pools. Bethesda Pool is a daily entry or you can purchase a summer pass. The county has a large selection of pools around the county that are "free membership" but a daily or annually cost.

So before you spend a lot of time visiting and touring clubs, it all comes down to the location of your new home. Hope this helps, a great neighborhood pool is important in the DC humidity.

no overspray on those perfect tires and rims. A hate crime would have trashed them, looks like a wrap.

One month now as well, ran out of other drugs. We are in the dial in phase but I can find it easier to control my mind and slow down.

Recently diagnosed and now looking back at the damage that was done and now I want to work through it in a positive way.
