So funny story: I was living in Virginia for school, moved to Wyoming, then Savannah (Charleston part-time), then to Charlotte, and now to DC...within the past 2 years.   

 

Now I've only been in DC for a month in a good ole' corporate marketing position and got word from out west (in Denver) that I've been accepted into grad school for architecture.  Put my acceptance in the mail today.  

 

Now I've stayed there a few times over the years in Wash Park and Highland which are sweet spots but still could know more about the area.  I'm just pumped and was looking for recommendations from any knowledgeable huddlers on the town.

Smoke some weed for us.

I also want to see what kind of buildings stoners will design.

 

haha

 

Apparently because of the legality deal, all types of schools have been flooded with applicants.  

 

I've actually been on a break for the last ~2 months.

Going to Colorado in  July for 3 straight nights of red rocks concerts. Will be my first time in Colorado. So excited

 

Make it a road trip, do the Bourbon Trail on the way, and download "tvfoodmaps".    

 

Boom!

Congrats on the acceptance, man.  I always had a passion for architecture and design, generally.  Never followed through with that; instead, I went to law school . . . .  Haha, it was all worth it, though, and I'm happy.  Hope it all works out for you.

my friend took an americorp in denver that paid like 900 bucks a month.  he had a spot a few blocks behind colfax ave (don't remember if it was east or west colfax, but it was in walking distance of the capitol building and many bars).  he ate a lot of rice and beans that year, but managed to live.  i rode with him down there when he moved.  we stayed at a hostel for a few nights before i flew back to okc.  he found a place to live within a week.  i could ask him for some advise if you'd like.

Sure why not. I'm considering buying a condo/loft/townhouse so any areas with an active night life + culture is cool by me.

What kind of nightlife? LoDo is where all the kids goto drink. But they do have 1 Up near the baseball stadium, if you're into older pinball and arcade games.

Your biggest problem is going to be choosing what local beer to have. I recommended anything Great Divide

well obviously, he knew he would only be there a year, so he wasn't looking to buy.  but at a minimum, i could ask about locations.

      How would you feel if Bryce did this in 2025

      By Icege · Posted

      These are the three deep throw attempts that Will Levis made in week 12. His first one is a beauty; Levis and Westbrook-Ikhine gets the safety to bite on a deep dig only to go over the top for the score. His second throw is another beauty: a crosser to Calvin Ridley reminiscent of Bryce to XL (though Ridley has noticeably more separation on his route). His third and final deep shot was an incompletion from his own endzone on 3rd & 14 with pressure coming down on him (to me, this seems like a solid throw).   Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-02.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro.mp4 Film Room Playlist NFL Pro-01.mp4 Levis took half of the deep shots that Young did. The differences are: Ridley had much better separation than XL, which is why his deep crosser turned into a 63yd play since he was able to scamper for another 15+ after the catch. Westbrook-Ikhine holds on to his TD pass. Bryce had to throw one away to preserve time for a field goal. Bryce had two more throws that were incomplete due to the WR Are we really holding the three WR errors and clock management decision against Bryce in order to say that Will was better throwing deep in week 12? That's not passing the eye test nor is it confirmed by the data.

      If you go on the PUP list before the season starts, you are gone for the year. If you start the year on the PUP list then you can get off of it. Kind of semantics, but we are putting him on the PUP list now which is before week 1, that’s why people who come off of it aren’t really on the PUP list until week 1, hence you usually hear right before the season that they are “starting the year” on the PUP list. I think PUP list and IR may basically be the serve the same purpose now because you also sometimes hear that if a player is added to the IR before week 1 that they aren’t eligible to come off the IR list for the entire year. Now, everyone added to IR (post week 1) can come off after 4 (or more) games so the PUP list is meaningless since it’s 6 games and starts at week 1. Anyone added to PUP or IR in the preseason is gone for the year.
