This week we find out that an old “friend” is still up to his same tricks; keep an eye your phone because he may be calling you next. We discover a product that sums up what is great about Capitalism, and another that seems to keep on going despite not being that great of a deal. A new shoe has dropped, and the golden era of orthopedic footwear may just be upon us. Have you ever thought you have had too much to drink to be driving…we meet a guy who that never occurred to. A false alarm has one of us placed on lockdown, but in this day and age you can never be too cautious. It may be safe to go back in the water, but be careful on the beach.

In 2005, I created RVA Magazine, and I'm still at the helm as its publisher. From day one, it’s been about pushing the “RVA” identity, celebrating the raw creativity and grit of this city. Along the way, we’ve hosted events, published stacks of issues, and, most importantly, connected with a hell of a lot of remarkable people who make this place what it is.
