    What is Veras now?

    Yeah, it is hilarious. It deserves a reward for something just for being so ridiculous. So where is that big cavernous basement with all the pool tables? And all those gourmet chefs? Do they live in Lusby? LOL.

    What is Veras now?

    That link looks bogus to me. There is no 1840 White Sands Dr under Contact Us, there is no menu, and what's up with the blather about pool tables, cue sticks and furby toys? From the rest of the site it looks like the domain got bought by some foreigner who's practicing his English. I think...

    Henkles....Annapolis Junction

    Saw some hard rock at the Psych Deli and saw some movies at the old grungy Bethesda Theater where you could eat pizza and drink pitchers of draft beer at a table while watching a movie. Those were the days.

    Henkles....Annapolis Junction

    I ate at the one near Greenbelt Rd so many times I can't remember. It was next to the Starlight Inn, a topless strip joint which was a real s***hole. I 'accidently' went into that place a few times - ha ha. Here's an old WaPo article on that place...

    Henkles....Annapolis Junction

    I ate at Bay 'N Surf and Pasta Plus a number of times. Both great places. Getting back to Henkels, here's a menu I found at http://www.trainweb.org/oldmainline/was3a.htm that's supposed to be from the 80's.

    We went there 3 days after it opened in November. It was very good overall with a couple minor complaints.

    Sunshine Hotel - a rant

    For these guys, how much of it is the wherewithal to hold a job versus how much they want a job? They seemed lucid enough to communicate and physically able. I've seen worse. These guys WANT to be detached from their families, friends and work. A couple of them said they could go back to live...

    Antibodies Testing

    According to Labcorp, they'll do it whether you go through your doctor or go directly to them. They say it'll cost $10 if you have insurance and go directly to them. https://www.labcorp.com/coronavirus-disease-covid-19/individuals/antibody-test

    What Do You Watch?

    I had seen that when reading about the TV Series but didn't read the details. Thanks for the link. I was talking about the TV Series starring Ellen Barkin instead of the film starring Jacki Weaver. Like you said, she is evil for sure. One sick puppy. Here's the link to the TV Series in case you...

    Animal Kingdom (Amazon Prime) starring Ellen Barkin who just gets raunchier with age. Talk about a dysfunctional family.

    Meanwhile, in Buffalo...

    Sorry for coming in so late here but did anyone else notice that the officers didn't really resign from the police force, but only from the emergency response team? Here's the last paragraph from the article referenced in the original post. “A police union representative told WKBW that the...
