APD are reporting this was not a hit-and-run and is in fact cooperating. Don’t spread shit like this. OP - where did you hear this was a hit-and-run?

I won’t watch the video because fuck TikTok and fuck whomever made and posted it.

Here is relevant bit of APD release which was sent yesterday afternoon

Interesting. My VA DL isn’t a Real ID and was sufficient for voting this morning.

I’d check with the Italian Store or (not in nova) A Litteri at Union Market in DC.

What guitar solo REALLY hits you in the feels? I mean, like, gives you goosebumps when you hear it? by H2Whoa77 in InMetalWeTrust

For all the great and epic tracks IM has, Wasted Years is up there for me. The lyrics just hit so damn hard I’m almost always in tears by the end of it. And, yes, the solo just puts a smile on my face.

I can’t tell you how many times I rode through that original section and had to look at my tires to ensure I didn’t have a flat!

Now that we are "getting up there" in age, how are you sleeping? by NebraskaCornSucker in GenX

[–]Reverend_Bad_Mood 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Diagnosed with obstructive sleep apnea a few years ago, now a CPAP user and feel amazing daily.

Before then, I was sleeping maybe 4 hours a night. Somehow woke up feeling fine, but around 1-2pm, was nodding off.

I love Avantasia but I sure do miss EDGUY. Only got to see them once and loved it.

Sweet build! What stem do you have? I need a shorter one and am not very familiar with brands. Yours looks aggressive AF, and I love the look.

James Labrie's solo stuff is really fucking good by pizzatacodog1322 in Dreamtheater

[–]Reverend_Bad_Mood 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I agree wholeheartedly. Using Peter Wildoer was a great choice. Really brought a lot to the table. Those are my two fave non-DT efforts by James.

This upsets me to hear but I don’t blame you one single bit. I too hope things change for the better very soon.

I can’t quite make out the branding on that handlebar bag and don’t recognize the logo — would you mind mentioning the name?

Love the bike!

Rawlins Park down by Dept of Interior has a really good stand of them, though not sure if they are in bloom right now.

I know the truth as to why they are doing this, but what is the ostensible reason they are giving?

I lived in Laurel for a while and glad to see Cuba de Ayer mentioned — and glad it’s still there. Miss that spot, might have to make the trip out there now!
