I don't think Italians are bad people George, on the contrary I have liked every Italian I have ever met (more than most English people). The Italian postal services do suck though.

He did not say they were bad.  He said they were morons.

@Megatron1505:

Italian postal service is the worst in the world for packages going missing. After losing 3 out of 3 packages shipped through eBay I no longer ship to Italy.

The issues that you have raised are two: 1) bad postal service 2) bad people.
the two issues need to be addressed separately

Sorry. I loved the moron bit, it must have lodged in my brain…

[Seul]

Moron…

[Giles]

You calling me Italian you Belgish bastard?

[Seul]

Oh no, I wouldn't do that… Just a moron...

[Chris]

Aren't you an honorary moron, Seul?  You were born in Italy, right?

[Seul]

Conceived. I'm a moron either way, though.

Does anyone have recommendations for the Washington DC / Northern VA area?
My girlfriend and I are going up there in May for a few days to visit my sister, I've been a couple of times now.
Always looking for new places to go and things to do!

Washington ciders are supposedly very good… Just something I picked up gods know where...

[Chris]

You're thinking Washington state, not Washington D.C., Seul.

[Giles]

Hey, hold on there Chris…...."Thinking"?

RFD and ChurchKey for beer.

I love Bistrot du Coin for moules frites. Get em with curry.

Dukem and Kokeb for Ethiopian (DC has a large immigrant population and is noted for Ethiopian).

I'll post more about my former city as I think of it and have time. @seawolf may have some ideas too

Red rocks for pizza in Alexandria.
Church key for food and beer in DC.
Le Diplomat for authentic French bistro food. So good. Get the steak frites.
Liberty tavern in Arlington. Great burger, cocktails and everything else.

Thanks for the welcome Giles.

I'm really liking the look of these iron hearts. If I went and got the type of jean i normally get …it would be the "vintage Levis" probably 1947 501 rigid.

Anyone care to suggest which cut iron heart  would be similar to that ?
