Ha, I have friends that just moved down from Nova that were there this weekend and they raved about it.

So people parking in that parking lot and patronizing other businesses is a major problem for 7-11 so they hired the tow truck service. If they let just anyone park there none of their customers would have anywhere to park. Also I know there are several signs. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.

Who even knows if he was actually struggling? They practically buried him alive. He was cuffed. How many people does it take to restrain a cuffed man?

They take his pulse approx at 4:48. They don't start to administer any kind of CPR til approx 6:40. That's two minutes after they took his pulse of just standing around and looking at him. They took forever to even roll him on to his back.

Yeah, I got an invite from my co-worker. He and I both have 6 year olds and he thought it would be a good time for them. Lol, fuck that. That's the last place I'm taking my kid.

My step sister from San Francisco just purchased a house in Richmond.

Dan Nichols Band plays there a lot.

> the flying squirrels have the best attendance in their league

And the Squirrels are absolutely going to leave if they don't get new stadium. The Tides have been in Norfolk since 1961. We lost the R-Braves in 08.

They've never turned a profit in net sales but in tax revenue it brings in a lot of money. And again, VCU uses the stadium too. And the Diamond might have been great for a few years back when it was built but it's been a dump for 30 years. I moved up here from Hampton Roads in the early 90's. Norfolk tore down Met Park because it was suc a shit hole and built Harbor Park. I remember my first trip to the Diamond thinking that even divey-ass Met Park, that was torn down, was much nicer than the Diamond. That was 30 years ago. Meanwhile Harbor Park in Norfolk is packed every night with a Triple-A team, thirty years later.

A new ball park should pay for itself several times over. Every ticket, beer, soda, hotdog, candy, luxury suite, merch, event at the park are taxed. The businesses around the ball park get busy before the games. Last game I went to, we couldn't get into Fat Dragon or Boulevard Burgers. A nice new park would be an even bigger draw. The alternative would be losing the Squirrels, tearing down the Diamond, some corporation buys the space and builds a Target there.

The city owns the Diamond.

The city, not the Squirrels, owns the Diamond. They Squirrels can leave any time they want. VCU also uses that dump. Hopefully we can get both of them a new stadium. A Double-A stadium isn't much bigger than what a college team needs.

Costco

Yeah it's almost like the guys they hire are just as fucked up and crazy as common criminals. Makes you wonder how many are just walking around getting away with God knows what, with total impunity.

Doesn't matter how you feel about tipping. What matters is that the employee was tipped and it's illegal as fuck for an employer to take tips away from an employee.

Sounds ripe for a class action lawsuit for unpaid wages. Round up a group of employees, current and former, and file complaints with the Virginia Department of Labor.

Is this not a reasonable place to park?

Fried chicken pairs incredibly well with white wine, particularly if it's bubbles. I went to a Rose and fried chicken birthday party one of the biggest wine snobs in Richmond.

That's just a bunch of chopped up beef with a couple slices of provolone on it.

So I always say with pets, it is always better to put them out of their misery a little too early than a little too late. And if you're starting to have that ethical debate it's probably about that time.

The whole motherfucking team.

Some say Sam Hauser might just be the white Larry Bird.

Sheeeit, I wish we had shit like this near Brandermill. Lots of Chinese food here, mom and pop Italian joints for your mozzarella sticks and stromboli fix, and then the Outback, Red Lobster scene is strong.

Agreed, but it's not just that. It's all of the growth west of Woodlake and all of the housing developments popping up in the area that concern me more. The addition of the water park on top of all that shit certainly doesn't help. Powhite North is going to be a nightmare once it's extended past Magnolia Green and Hampton Park. It's already bad at the two tolls in the mornings and afternoons. All of the HOA's in the area need to start working together to start putting pressure on the county to start thinking about infrastructure and new facilities.

Sheeeit. We go Nov 1 to Feb 1, give or take. We don't run wild with the decorations, but if we're going to the trouble of dragging this shit out of the attic, its going up early and staying out late.
