Ever Wonder What’s Underneath a Bridge as You Go Over?Well take a look. During today’s morning stroll I passed under the Blue and Gray Parkway bridge over the Rappahannock. Once known in the burg as, “The Bridge to Nowhere.” Needless to say the park…

If you told me Bob McDonnell said this without giving any proof, I’d call you a liar. I mean, nobody can be that stupid. Right?

I haven’t seen any mention in the local media of the hailstorms that rumbled through our area last night (see above radar view). This link from the Storm Prediction Center indicates a trained spotter (read “SkyWarn”) report of up to BASEBALL-sized hai…
Tom Perriello’s upset of Virgil Goode in the 5th CD was the biggest upset of the 2008 election. Congressman Perriello won despite John McCain carrying his district by 3%. For comparisons sake, that’s the same margin McCain carried Rob Wittman’s district. Heck, Barack Obama won Randy Forbes‘ district.

It’s been a sad week here at kybecca – way beyond bizzare celebrity deaths. Our very own Jack Morrison, will be leaving us in two weeks.
Jack has been shopping at kybecca since the store opened in March of 2005. After his beloved record store, Blue Dog, closed in April of 2005, Jack took some time off, and then Kyle offered him a position at our humble wine shop.
Many of our customers were his customers, and remember him fondly (as Jack is always friendly, courteous and professional.) Jack also has a wonderful palate, with an honest appreciation for wine and extensive knowledge. Something you may not know is that Jack is very gifted at writing tasting notes (the majority of the notes you see in the shop and at wines tastings are his.)
So Jack…runner of marathons, drinker of wine, lover of jazz….you are loved and will be missed.
Be sure to drop by kybecca on William Street in the next couple of weeks to wish Jack well in his new endeavors. Also, drop him a nice note on here.
