"law enforcement worker"... Meaning police officer. They really won't write that a cop murdered people, huh.

So let's break this down. Guy was a cop in Henrico (academy July 21- JAN22) and leaves the department within 10mo. Moved to far Western VA, Near Bristol. Works for the Washington Co Sheriff. Then within 2mo drives to California to murder a family of 4 and kidnap and teen girl.

Idk man, I got a feeling these "law enforcement" types got some serious personal problems. He most certainly was a groomer.

Might be a good back up option, I'm not sure if there are any hotels here with a sauna. On the other hand I live here so I haven't stayed in any hotels in Richmond so maybe they're flying under the radar.

Triangle Rock Club off Staple's Mill also has a sauna, and you can get a day pass and use it as much as you want. In my experience there's a 98% chance nobody else will be in there.

Shyndigz has a holiday market right across the street from their shops

This is one fucked up situation!

Thanks. That's what I found when I googled it but didn't know if I was missing something.

It is time for my annual descent into grinchdom. I don't try to harsh anyone's vibe but if anyone needs me I'll be in my cave with my dog

Man that is pretty damn dark… the determination to drive across the damn country to do that… that’s some wicked shit.

Imagine sitting in your car driving for two days straight with your thoughts that this is what you are gonna do… you can never convince me there isn’t evil in this world, because that’s just unthinkable the amount of premeditation this required.

I did our outside decorations this weekend while the better half was out of town. The tree is currently up, and has a few ornaments on it so far, and a cat somewhere nearby eyeing it up intently.

I don't see this lasting long term but I would love to be surprised.

Trying to do 8 things in one building sounds like a recipe for mediocrity. Add that to the not ideal location and the uphill battle gets steeper. If they can hold on until the Diamond District gets developed then they have a chance!

Maybe a membership to VMFA? Restaurants gift cards? Concert tix to area small venues?

Our Thanksgiving was Saturday. The adult kids stayed overnight and we sprinted on Sunday to get everything put up for our parents. 2 trees, the mantle, nativity scene, some holiday antiques, dining room table, and garland all pulled down, put up, and restored in the attic in a day. Somehow I had time left over for present wrapping and exam prep.

ACAC is a gym

It's just one bad apple, we swear.

Technically yes, but also technically no

Thank you - I’m still floating from it! Go Blue!!!!

Dang that's really disappointing, I'll definitely make my way there to show them some love

It is chosen for the elite.

Wow, that is perfect; packs flat, built in hanger, appropriately shiny.

Sounds like the Martians from Mars Attacks

Thanks! I think I'm at about 70 now so hopefully just 1 more day

not sure that's entirely accurate. but we definitely went along with the slave trade and made it a pretty integral part of our survival and culture for a while. but so did many many many other countries throughout time. some still do it. At least we got rid of it pretty quickly.

That doesn't seem wise given NOVA traffic.

Is this a hotel?

How do I get this hawk to move over to my street and eradicate the squirrels? They desperately want to live in my house.
