This is a common theme on FFU. Depends on what you like. Victor's is pretty good, but I would try Pomodoro's in FFX Towne Centre or Santini's in Vienna. I grew up in Brooklyn, and those two are the closest you see to NY pizza. I will let the Chicago and Philly fans comment on their own. I also like Mclean pizza -- old school stuff.

It might count, Watches are more bling now than actual timepieces. I remember a couple of years ago asking a guy with a Rolex for the time of day, and he pulled out his cellphone to give me the info. I was a bit surprised.

Well,. I would try Jamieson's Biblical Commentary. It's Catholic, but it is a pretty good biblical reference for your query.

Safeway is my dammit store - - closest to my house. It is irritating yet convenient. Pluses: great bakery; decent meat department; good store brand dairy products; good Friday specials from time to time Minuses: check-out lines are ridiculous; produce prices too high; seafood selections limited (salmon and China-farmed tilapia AGAIN)

Been going there for 15 years and I have no complaints. It is my go-to on a Thursday or Friday night. What did you expect? It is one of those Greek/Italian places that dot the Mid-Atlantic/East Coast, and this is one of the better ones in FFU territory. Though, I wish they had fried calamari.

Concur. I changed my blades to Rainx last week and am already disappointed. Bosch are ok, but wear out pretty quickly. I was impressed with the US-made Goodyears. I am back them next time instead of the Chinese made crap Rainx and Bosch are peddling these days

Tried it today. The chicken was excellent; some of the better Peruvian chicken I've had around here. The sides were average. I'll give them another shot in a month or so.

It's all good, and we are very lucky in FFU world with the variety. I am partial to Thai food and like Vietnamese pho on a cold winter day. Korean food is pretty good, but not made for carry-out or those unfamiliar with it, at least in these parts. The Burmese restaurant Myanmar in Falls Church is excellent and a real gem. However, I do wish we had a Malaysian/Singaporean restaurant 'round here.

I like Modest Mouse. However, they are not at the Patriot Center, State Theatre, etc. Their loss.

These guys were the Patriot Center tonight. It was a great show. I was only a little familiar with their music, and I am now a fan. Nice to see some good live music in the FFU AOR.

I don't get the appeal of Cuban sandwiches. I have tried a lot of them and want to like them, but I find them just pretty ordinary, ham and cheese panninis. I just expected something a little more different. Am I missing something?

I would give a million bucks apiece to my bros/sistas and 500 grand each to all of their kids. Keep track, and do a sociological research study of what happened next. Of course, I would also pay off my mortgage, and \get the hell out of FFC. So long suckers!!

I watched "Game Change"on HBO tonight. Despite all the hype, I thought it was pretty balanced and fairly accurate. It did make McCain look like the only adult in the room. Is that so, or no?

1977 used pea-soup green Audi Fox. Worst car ever made; I even had mechanics joke that it must have been made in Germany by a Turkish guest worker on a Monday morning. I was too poor to dump it so I had it for five years. I only had enough money to fix the things that went wrong every single week. By the end, I had to replace almost every critical part, and crawl through the windows to get insi
