Automatic feeders saved my sleep schedule. Like clockwork, everyday at 5 am my cats would riot until they got their scoop of food. I swear they can read my clock.

Can't answer your specific question, but here is another idea.
Use Waze/Google maps --> just make sure you have speedometer turned on. That will give you another measure of speed. I've found both to be accurate.

The tolls on Powhite once you cross the river have one, but I’m drawing a blank regarding another permanent one.
Alternatively, if you have a buddy who can go the same speed as you can compare and see if you’re matched

It would be great if Regency ends up like that.

Remember the shitshow the last time they tried to redistrict the schools?

This is probably a good idea. It's been proposed a lot over the years I gather but gets push back

Speed limit should be 15 on most streets around VCU. More should be converted to bus and pedestrian/bikes only. It makes zero sense for cars to be given higher priority than foot traffic as they make up a much smaller share of commuters in that area. 195 exists. Force cars and trucks to use it rather than speeding on Cary and Main. This is very simple and would save lives while costing motorists a couple dollars a day.

I called the office and asked if they were doing interviews still here or not since I also couldn't get an appointment. The officer told me that they released all the dates for the next month on Tuesday morning at 7 am. I think it was the third Tuesday of the month. Even knowing this, I still almost wasn't able to get an appointment since they were gone within literally two minutes.

They're not going to be budget apartments but it at least gives people more options and potentially moves high income people out of lower priced units.
Right now split floor 1BR apartments that are less than 700 sq ft go for 1700-2200 in Scott's

If there’s any construction site in the area bet on them being there. Usually VCU Health/MCV by the hospital between 10/11am-1pm. Their brick and mortar is off Midlothian not too far from downtown. Their food truck is best I’ve had besides El Chido

I used to visit a food court in Oriental City, a shopping mall for the Oriental communities in North London. The food court had no chains, no brands, just 20+ family owned businesses all doing their thing, turning out their specialities at reasonable prices. They leased space from the mall owners and it was the best, busiest most diverse place I've ever eaten. Even the likes of Borough Market in London hasn't got the breadth this place had. Or the Richmond model, where a restaurant business owns the hall and fills it with their "not quite" concepts with little variation and no competition.

You assumed wrong. I don't know him to hate him, I hate what he represents.

That's a legit old Richmond accent. Usually you'd expect to hear that from an octogenarian, not some 30 something white dude.

The main point of the interview is to take your picture and fingerprints
