Hell, we’ve got scantily clad ladies for hire in Charlottesville, why not have a coffee place in Belmont that serves coffee to customers in bikinis!?

I know we all like to think of ourselves as ballers and all that, but how much do we really spend eating and drinking in Charlottesville?   I just looked at my expenses for the last few weeks and let me tell you.. I was very surprised at how much I spent on food and drinks at restaurants and bars.  I guess the other question is “will you maintain this spending after you realize how much you spend?”

Many of you complained about our nighttime pictures from the top of the crane because the quality wasn’t so good.  Hey, what can you expect with a bunch of hoodlums?  We’ve had an official member of the construction site provide us with some of the sweetest pictures from the top of the crane.  He said we had a better chance of winning the lottery than getting to the top, but provided these pictures instead.

Also, he reminds you that the crane is very dangerous, so don’t try to climb to the top! The first picture in the slideshow is of 560 ft VA Beach Behemoth which would tower over our little 160 ft baby beast. The rest are from Charlottesville’s Landmark Hotel Construction Site!

Two facts:

1.  The Tavern (on Emmett) been closed since at least Saturday, with a sign on the door about re-training. (Although I haven’t looked today.)

2.  The Health Department report. Do you ever look at the Virginia Dept of Health Restaurant Inspections site? Huuge time-waster. Anyway, the most recent report for the Tavern was extremely negative [link].

Those are the facts.

Here is the speculation:

You have got to love when the bikers have to dodge the person who has no idea how to parallel park.  Seriously dude!?  This parking job is not even close to being ok.  It’s near ACAC; too bad it’s not a cop!

Thanks to the birdie that sent us this one!

Bad parking jobs 1, 2, 3, 4

A little birdie sent this in from The Sabre…

The following geniuses from the UVa football team were arrested over the weekend for allegedly stealing beer from a cooler at 216. If true, upcoming Senior Will Barker and upcoming Sophomore Dave Roberts should be applauded for their allegedly stupid acts.  Dave really steals the show…he is 19 and allegedly had a fake ID on him, allegedly.

This is what they look like when are doing what they are supposed to be doing (from Facebook):

And this is what they look like when they are arrested:

Will Barker

Dave Roberts

From a little birdie…(not verified)

The rumor is the guy who co-owns Michael’s Bistro is holed up in the restaurant and won’t come out. Supposedly, they’ve been closed for days because of whatever he’s doing in there.  One person thinks he’s been locked down in the Bistro for a week.

Ever wonder what it’s like to climb to the top of the giant crane on the Downtown Mall?  Apparantly one of our birdies knows exactly what it’s like. 

We have no idea who climbed to the top of this thing and don’t suggest you do it, but we do have a bunch of pictures you probably are curious to view.
