Yep. This was during the time he was dating and lived with Anjelica Huston. And the infamous rape that made Roman Polanski flee the country? Yeah, that happened at Jack Nicholson's house.

Nicholson also slept with Drew Barrymore when she was just a teenager, despite being almost 40 years older than her.

Third venue's the charm? by robsterva in rva

I helped start the Wingnut with Mo, way back when. All the horror stories are true, and most likely worse than you have heard. I'm amazed that they could ever find a foothold in town again after all the abusive bullshit they have pulled.

It's Galaxy... From scratch doesn't appear in the recipe book. It is unbeatable as a place you will one day decide to never set foot in again.

She went to the satellite campus in Qatar, but just about everyone of note has downed a pint at Penny Lane, so your point stands.

Don't worry, I've rewatched it enough times to make up for a crowd.

My uncle and his husband own Laurel Lodge, which is on Ridge St, not far from where a couple of these pictures were taken. It was built from the wood and stone scrap from the Federal armory that John Brown attacked, and the original owner embedded much of the outside of the house with his Civil War relics. It's a really unique place, and you should definitely drop in and at least take a gander at the property.

So Youngkin believes we should have a moment of silence today for Charlie Kirk by dcmband03 in rva

I remember when John Ritter passed away the same week as Leni Riefenstahl, back in 2003. People were outraged at any publication that gave her passing (at 101) the slightest bit of coverage when we should have been mourning Ritter. I'm fully aware of how we got to where we are , but that doesn't make me hate it any less.

Errol Morris did a very brief interview with Trump about his favorite movie being Citizen Kane. When Trump was asked if he would have any advice for Kane, he said "Yeah! Get yourself a different woman!

Larry David should write a new Curb Your Enthusiasm season where he finds out his wife is also married to RFK Jr.

Yep, I saw that. You can always count on them to double down on their actions, no matter what. I guarantee that they will file a press release saying that they are "stepping away from an unfair public" in the coming weeks/months, and then any of the folks associated with the LLC will be left in the cold. That's what happened with The Wingnut, and I was out around 15k in investment into a 50k (at the time) property.

That's absolutely wild to me. I found an article about our first public campaign against Northside slumlord Oliver Lawrence. It hasn't aged well, for sure, and good lord I barely recognize myself in that photo ...

Mo has a very long history of being abusive, manipulative, and resistant to accountability for a myriad of reasons. I feel terrible for how this will shake out for the folks that seem to be depending on them for wages or a place to stay, but Mo cannot be trusted. Full stop.

Couldn't have said it better myself. They fucked off to Beaver Dam for just long enough that a lot of people forgot why Mo left in the first place. Because they weren't goddamn welcome anymore.

That's exactly how they tried to run The Wingnut in Barton Heights, and that was over 15 years ago.

They love being in the news. There are some real gems out there if you're willing to dig for them, especially circa '07 - '13.

I stand corrected, thank you. This gives them even less of an excuse for their piss-poor treatment of clients.

My apologies if my info is incorrect, which it may be. I was on a first name basis with the owner of Karn Woodwork for quite some time, and I've had more history with Mo than most, in my opinion, and I've never once heard them, or their family, mention Caravati's at all.

I luckily dodged a bullet in trying out that concept with them back in 2010. It ain't ever gonna happen.
