I miss the community and the wines from the Wine Guild. Evan & the crew knew how to hustle and to find great wines from around the globe.

So, How Are Wine Shops Doing These Days? It Depends. (Gift Article)
Richer, well-diversified operations are thriving. Small, storefront shops are struggling. And those in the middle are hustling harder than ever.

@veomobility.bsky.social please come get your scooter that’s been at my kid’s bus stop all week.
Veo scooter on the edge of the sidewalk at a school bus stop in Albemarle County. The wet pavement of a dreary weekday morning is in the background.

Anybody know why T*ck*tm*st*r won't let me buy tickets for all 5 members of my family to a show I'd like us all to go to @johnpauljonesarena.bsky.social? I can buy 4 or 6, but not 5. Sigh.

There may be some as good as Ethan Saliba, but there are none better. His service to generations of UVA athletes set the standard and is a big reason UVA Athletics is the place it is. Maybe now we can get him to attend the Men's Basketball reunion in January! virginiasports.com/news/2026/06...

When we brought some Scouts working on Ad Altare Dei to do the DC Religious Trails Activity for their retreat back in the spring, our guide at the SJPII Shrine told us about this and offered it for @scoutingamerica.bsky.social groups who wanted to deepen their experience nccs-bsa.org/wp-content/u...

Folks, take 3 minutes to do this today. Word is that feedback so far is predominantly alumni. They need to hear even more from community members and employees. The main message to send is that UVA should be a better neighbor and a better employer.

Living in a cul-de-sac neighborhood on Harris Road, I find myself seeing multiple delivery trucks and the occasional semi navigating sharp turnarounds as they are looking for Harris Street.

I just received a call from a roofing company telling me they are working with some of my neighbors on new roofs & could they come give me an estimate. The caller told me he couldn't tell me because telling me would violate the law. He basically tried to create "roofer-client privilege."

We frequently hear about customer service nightmares but I had 3 good encounters today out of 4 so I thought I’d shout out Dick’s House of Sport & Staples locally, & T-Mobile’s US-based call center. The Merrell rep was pleasant enough but could only do so much. Today could’ve been so much worse.

We went earlier this summer and it was a great time. Kids enjoyed playing before the movie, and the double feature makes the value! Sooooo late getting home though. So, so late.

Since the anniversary is nearing, my regular reminder that Charlottesville is a place, not an event. The article gets it correct in referring to the UTR rally, but the headline is a fail.

The appearance of Foghorn Leghorn in this trailer gives me hope. Gonna have to educate the next generation on the Coyote vs. Roadrunner oeuvre before I take them to see this.

If both executions take place as scheduled, it will be the first time since 1964 that Florida will have executed two inmates on the same day.

And yet here they fell back to the same "-related shooting" construct. Sigh.

This is better framing than "officer-involved shooting". Baby steps.

This is true, but the downtown parish is one of 3(?) in the Richmond Diocese (basically everything in VA south of Orange/Culpeper/Madison) allowed by the local bishop to offer the Traditional Latin Mass which they do every Sunday. So some of the seminarians may be diocesan seminarians, not SSPX ones

A reminder to my Cville friends that SSPX has a seminary just down the road in Dillwyn as well as a chapel in Richmond in case you thought this was mostly something abroad or in the midwest.

TRIVIA TIME Most of you have probably heard that Texas won the Directors Cup again this year. Texas, Stanford, UNC and UVA usually battle for the top spots. This year, three teams tied for last place (299th). WHO WERE THEY? hint: they all won enough to generate SOME directors cup points.

If I know anyone on JLARC or JLARC-adjacent, I'm offering my services to work with them on the athletics study as required by the budget in item 1 here. @katrinacallsen.com @creighdeeds.bsky.social, I like what you're thinking with including this.

Gonna have to think about this for a bit. The easy food answer (Bodo's) doesn't feel like the right answer. For a tradition, I think Streaking the Lawn would both blow some minds but also have some non-USians jumping right in.

Seeing my good friend @theuptownfive.bsky.social post joyfully about his Pale Hose does two things for me: reminds me of the O's a few years ago & the giddiness I felt with their unexpected success, but more importantly seeing him happy about his baseball team brings me joy. I'm happy for you, dude!

This is the number of cases of measles this year in Virginia. (Last year we had 5 the entire year.) Again, the correct number of measles cases is ZERO. Please check your vaccination status and reach out to learn more if you have questions.
106 total measles cases this year in Virginia.
