Reply to Anyone got a reliable firewood person? by TheRealJewf
If anyone on southside wants to come by my house and take a bunch of logs off my front yard... please dm me.
I cut down a massive red oak, and then our equipment to move the logs broke down. So it's been stuck out there for a couple weeks.
Not seasoned.

Used to be a chill fishing and hangout spot before these dudes made that mosquito farm and invited CSX police to check it out regularly.

I got to witness one of the multiple police cars that flipped a few years ago when every squad car in the city was racing to some officer down situation.

Very odd. Considering at 3pm they had a checkpoint at forest hill and Bliley.
I was at riverside at 5pm and there was no checkpoint at jahnke.

I had a couple family members move out of the city because of the monuments coming down.
Embarrassing. Their loss though, as their former home values skyrocketed in the year following the sales. Now they live in the county and the new properties have actually decreased in value since they moved out there.

Hah I would have worked this show. Would have been my second or third wrestling event.
My problem with the coliseum being closed is that it was a fully functional venue and was shut down as a political pawn by Stoney to get the navy hill project approved.
In the years prior it was deliberately under maintained... just compare it to the Scope.
Hundreds of people lost work because of that.

Probably correct. But when the republican party has a history of calling elections stolen without any evidence to support the claim... it's suddenly become an important distinction between those who value democracy and those who want to dismantle it.

You obviously live on the north bank of the river west of downtown.
I live and work in southside where the vast majority voted YES. A lot of people here truly believed that a casino would help the community.
Urban One spent over a million dollars spreading lies to Richmonders about the benefits of their development. They probably spent a similar amount getting local officials on board.

1.3 billion and the casino site is yours!
They'd probably agree. I could be convinced to vote yes for that one.

Richmond is spending all this time and effort for a casino...
and in the same breath...
>The city also wants, as its second highest priority, to prevent any state effort to accelerate the required completion of a $1.3 billion combined-sewer cleanup of the James River before 2035.
Levar, we got real problems in the city and a casino isnt one of them.

I can't wait to vote NO again.
Voting to allow some asshole from Atlanta to have a casino monopoly in Richmond is embarrassing.
Either just legalize gambling or dont.

Knife is my go to as well. Most of my elderly neighbors walk with little baseball bats and stuff like that.
Sucks it is such a rampant issue that the elderly carry weapons to protect themselves from dogs.

Richmond lost most of the great old late night spots. Most of the ones people mention here close at 9.
That used to be peak hours for 4th Street Diner coffee.

You know where it is!
Some of the 2 foot length logs were grabbed today. But plenty of long ones left to cut up.
