Fresh Market on Tuesdays $3/lb and it actually tastes like chicken

Reply to comment by ripleyajm in Student death sparks conversation on pedestrian safety at VCU by CrassostreaVirginica
I'm always white-knuckling it whenever I'm driving through VCU's campus, the Fan, or Carytown. So many pedestrians will just dart out into the street between parked cars instead of going to the crosswalk.

I think Timber Jim passed the torch in 2008. I'm actually a Southampton fan. I've never met another one in the wild...lol. I'm the only Saints fan I know out here.

Reply to “People Moving From NOVA to Richmond Are Ruining Our City” Reports Guy Who Moved Here in 2018 by ThatChildNextDoor
While the whole article is satire, there is a bit of truth in the concept of the article. Someone who moved down here in 2018 would likely have come down here for work or school. But since the pandemic, the lower cost of living became attractive to people who could work remotely while still commanding a higher salary, which in turn put pressure on the housing market causing housing prices and rent to increase far beyond the rate of inflation, therefore making it harder for those who were already established in the greater RVA to be able to afford to live here on their incomes that did not grow at the same rate...

Broad really ought to have streetlights into the county. Especially Broad through Willow Lawn and most of Staples Mill. Pedestrians get hit there constantly.

Chicken salad is on my list of possibilities this week. Easy for lunch and a good way to use it up.

Sure. I remember when it was Timber Jim. Though that may have been when the Timbers were in the same league as the Kickers.
Who’s your Prem team? Liverpool, Spurs and Arsenal seem to be well represented here.

I know. If they want to use chicken as a loss leader, I have no issues walking into the store and only buying that one item.

Check out redemption bbq. Their brisket isn’t going to match up to ZZQs but their other offerings are very good

As a resident of Short Pump, dear God no. This is where soulless families raise their kids (again, I am one). There is nothing fun to do here. The food here is chain crap and the occasional "meh" place. No soul. Stay downtown. You got money, The Jefferson, if not Google something. Downtown has culture, brewery, food, history, and everything is walkable.

Yes. This place is great. And ZZQ is great too.

Would the positive role models be hired from outside the community, is that the idea?

Going to Short Pump would be like going to White Marsh. Sure, you can do it, but I'd personally pick somewhere actually in the city to stay if I was coming for a visit...

7/11 on Jeff Davis just past Chippenham in the county line. The one in the center median.

Not necessarily. Ask people in the area for suggestions--after all, they'll know better than anyone else. After-school and weekend activities provide another opportunity for F2F interactions between kids and role models as well.
