I know cycling has problems, but the crackdown on juicing has gone too far.
All I know is I am tired of seeing every renovation is just a gut job, then a unoriginal...
I love Bacio pizza in Bloomingdale! They don't offer delivery but great neighborhood...
311? I think I found the flower thief. Suspect is helmeted male, hopped up on apple...
I tried their kabob last weekend, it was pretty good and a lot of food for the price....
A couple posts down on the main page it stated that there were arrests made in this second case… is that not true? Unless there were 4 people shot around the metro entrance this weekend at 1045pm on saturday. #peoplesucksometimes
Stupid….
Someone please figure out how all these guns and bullets end up in the hands of DC shooters! It’s so lame this stuff happens week after week. We deserve better from our leaders.
It’s not our leaders shooting at each other. Not that it would be a bad thing – or, sadly, make a difference.
