Welcome to Missed Connections, where finding out that someone's date is actually their sister is still awkward. That doesn't mean it can't turn into a meet-cute, though… not if Craigslist has anything to say about it. You'll learn plenty about that whole situation if you just read on. You'll also get a classic Missed Connection love note complete...
Welcome to another week of Missed Connections, where we're all attempting to answer positively to this week's most important question: Do you have gas in your car? The ongoing fallout from the Columbia Gas pipeline hack means that, as of last night, a third of Virginia gas stations still didn't have gasoline available. That dire situation is why...
Welcome to another week of Missed Connections, where it seems people have fewer words than usual available to express their admiration. Is this a sign that the economy is recovering? Did all of us finally get back to work? Considering I'm still typing this in my pajamas at my dining room table, I don't really think that's the answer. Regardless...
After Attorney General Mark Herring's ruling that Virginia colleges and universities can mandate that students and faculty get a COVID vaccine, universities and students are determining their plans for fall 2021 and beyond.

Welcome to another week of Missed Connections, where things are getting intriguing! Honestly, during the pandemic, it's been all I could do to find enough decent MCs to fill up a weekly article.

Welcome to another week of Missed Connections, where… look, it's too soon to start talking about things "getting back to normal." We're still months away from that (Aside: if you haven't booked your vax appointment yet, go do that shit! This article will still be here afterwards). But people are definitely getting excited about leaving the house...
It's spring, the flowers are in bloom, vaccinations are happening, and here in the Missed Connections, we're seeing a new and unexpected phenomenon -- people developing crushes on their vaxers! Multiple tales of falling for the person who gave you the shot await the reader in this week's crop of Craigslist hits. But there's plenty more fun to be...
Mom's only got $80 for bail money, but that's OK, because you just want to have a good time, right? Well, you might find it this week in the Missed Connections… unless you're driving a red dump truck down Rt. 17. As a good friend of mine once said, "The future of road rage is now." Getting back to what you can look forward to in this week's...
Welcome to another week of Missed Connections, where it is definitely not our first time at the rodeo. If you're looking for St. Paddy's Day content, we surprisingly didn't get that much this time around (I blame COVID, for this and for everything else). But we've got plenty of other action this week, so don't hesistate to dive in, even if the...
