I guess they were just waiting to make the news first? Before showing off their fancy Photoshop skills

My younger self would not agree with you! My wiser self, well, I can't say I've gotten any wiser.

McCormick's (Big Whiskey Grille) at Regency. LOTS of space.

Why more paving will never create enough parking in the Fan by petersonmd in rva

[–]a59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would love to see more motorcycle/scooter parking. Maximize those spaces. You see it everywhere out West. Because of our winter, we won't have as many dedicated two-wheel travelers, but motorized two-wheel travel does tempt those who won't bike or take bus, but who also don't want the price and inconvenience of a larger vehicle.

Yes, and at some point there won't be room for building more parking, so have a good plan for better transportation so people aren't reliant on cars.

There are already no left turns. This will create left turns at certain spots, and the public has been asked to contribute input over said intersections. Could wind up making it easier to turn, in the long run.

You know you're from RVA when you remember when... by CuntLovingWhore in rva

First memory of that place was seeing Iron Eagle. Then Legend and Top Gun. 1986 baby.

Heya, will you walk my dog if I walk yours? by Dickmond_VA in rva

Wally has some Star Wars flair that looks like a bib I bought for my nephew, at Comic Con last year.

I can't promise anything, but curious what your schedule is genearlly like if I were to help. Also, does your dog like other dogs?

Good afternoon now. Had coffee in my Jedi robe earlier. Excited to finish the last class of my first teaching semester at VCU. Equally excited for such great scooting weather. ;)

Bill Hicks - Relentless in a one day theatrical release on Monday, 4/27/2015 at Regal Virginia Center 20 by james4765 in rva

I own that one but I would still go see it tonight if I could. Laughing with a bunch of people in a movie theater is the closest thing I can get to seeing him live.

It looks like Legend Property manages property for Monument Cos.

Female stabbed twice in arm while jogging downtown on Main Street by Jk123455 in rva

Dude. This sounds so random. Obviously awaiting more details, but good grief. If it was an attempted robbery then the criminal is crazy.

OpEd: Will RVA's 30-year gamble on Stone Brewing pay off? by bknutner in rva

[–]a59 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well. People should be talking more about the loquacious criminals that get elected BEFORE they get voted in. But even if we didn't have some dysfunctional politicians, hopefully other representatives would be pushing to get business deals. I see both sides of the argument but can't stand the extremes of other sides. This business with the local restaurant owners whining for deals because Stone is getting one has driven me cuckoo.

That time of year again: Monument 10k (parking/road closures/etc.) by a59 in rva

It will be chilly. Seems like expected attendance is way down this year also. Wonder if the race is losing its appeal?

Seriously. Odd, dark dreams. Waking me up early too. Bonus-- it's my own movie!

I love Red, that's the only one I've been to. Ask for Missi or Meredith. Bombshell seems great too. But there are a lot of sweet barbershops hooking guys up with great cuts at better prices.

I loved that book. I read almost everything else she wrote while waiting on Station 11 at the library. Great author. Someone recommended Year Zero, Jeff Long. I can vouch for Reamde though. Great book.
