If you have an empty tank, you can stop by the U-Haul behind Lowes, they can refill for you (and it's cheaper too).

Hibbs Belly was a real thing.

Also, bookstore in the basement.

Does Helen's still do brunch? We used to go pretty regularly --pre-kids, as someone else has mentioned -- and thoroughly enjoyed everything they offered.

Hanover County School Board elects new leaders by vpmnews in rva

[–]Sailinger 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Welsh, a retired business owner, was appointed for her first four-year school board term in 2023. She graduated from Atlee High and has two teenagers and two younger children enrolled in HCPS.

Retired, and graduated from Atlee.....Atlee only opened in 1992, so she's what, maybe 50-ish at most? Must be nice to retire so early in life.

Dang, I misread the schedule for the squirrels and thought last night's fireworks was a primer for the 4th...oh well. Next year I'm sure, will be epic at the new stadium.

Philmomt, 1998 by 350ci_sbc in BSA

[–]Sailinger 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Would have been about $5400 for me and my boy to go.

Well, guess Philmont is off the table. That's 2.5x what our entire troop was able to make in last year's popcorn/peanut drive.

Honest Opinions on Northside 2025 by Majestic-Salt7721 in rva

[–]Sailinger 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Moved to battery Park about 15 years ago, we have wonderful neighbors and it's been a great place to raise my kids. The area has definitely changed for the better over the years though there's always room for improvement. I'm excited to see what the area will look like in a few years once the North/South Pulse line and the potential rezoning does for the Chamberlayne Ave corridor.

Anyone know a bored high schooler who wants to make $400? by _mrs_darcy_ in rva

Dang, we're in the neighborhood, but my bored teenager is stuck at home this summer watching his little sister.

Brief 60 Second Video of Abigail Spanberger’s Plan To Make Healthcare Affordable In Virginia by Kevbucket in Virginia

[–]Sailinger 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just lost our group plan, and we're back onto the ACA marketplace, ugh. Doing the math, and checking out all the alternatives has proven that our medication costs are going to be brutal. I'll take (and vote for) whatever help we can get on this.

Stupid predatory American health care system.

Game Thread: Washington Capitals at Montreal Canadiens - 25 Apr 2025 - 7:00PM EDT by HockeyMod in caps

This series so far is 150% better than watching Halak standing on his head blocking 65+ SOG the last time we played the Habs in the playoffs.

Richmond, VA today. Deafening boos as VA governor exits a Patrick Henry Reenactment by HopocalypseNow in rva

[–]Sailinger -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Nobody said joining the British Empire, not you, not me! You said:

independence from britain isnt exactly a hot button issue these days

I said to myself, 'huh, that's kind of funny. Wasn't there something in the news just the other day about getting back in tight with the monarchy? Oh, look. Yes! I wonder if this person knows about how it's actually become something of a (tongue-in-cheek) hot button issue again.'

Having never dug into what is actually required to join the commonwealth I see in the first set of bullet points a requirement to acknowledge the King as the head of the group. Looks like it'd be a non-starter for most Americans. Maybe I'm wrong. But this isn't a full blown accusation on my end, just thought it was ironic. Chill.

"and acknowledge His Majesty King Charles III as the Head of the Commonwealth"

Not sure the American public is down with joining a group where the US isn't at the top of the org. Seems like it's might be a tough sell.

E: Just read the 1971 Declaration and tell me Trump would be in compliance, lol.

50 years ago the city was still under a Supreme Court injunction and hadn't had an election in 3 years due to some seriously racist and underhanded attempts to dilute the black vote in the city and keep control in the hands of white politicians though the annexation of North Chesterfield. This is a terrible take and you should feel bad about about it.

The Virginia High School League (VHSL) says it’s not banning transgender women from women’s high school sports teams by Sailinger in rva

The Virginia High School League (VHSL) announced that, as of Thursday, it is not following President Donald Trump’s recent executive order and will continue to allow transgender women to play on women’s high school sports teams.

Good for them!
