What I meant John, is there's no snow or ice, or such foolishness to ruin a game. It may rain occasionally, but but almost no lightning. If it does rain, it's a shower that's unimpressive....

Well, I've not seen a golf course in so long that I've broken the 190 mark. 194 last time I weighed.
I'm ****ed.



Easy solutions. Pack your guns and head over to Springfield Mall and
walk around its hallways for a few hours, or leave your guns at home and
head over to Tysons Corners mall and walk around its hallways for a few
hours. While you are there, you can stop in at the Apple Store and see
what a modern computer not running an obsolete operating system looks like.

On the way home, you can stop in for a low-cal meal at one of Virginia's
many first-rate pho shoppes.

Uh...

By now, Harry, you should have concluded that I have no interest in
following the "directions," "orders," "suggestions," "requests," et
cetera, you aim in my direction, and that I don't give a tinker's dam
about your opinions on matters political. You're not in charge here.

Couldn't resist.

I'd make a comment about the demise of Springfield Mall, but then you'd start your 'racist' crap, so
I won't. But we know what happened, don't we? (Wink, wink)

Springfield Mall hit the crapper in the early 80's when they did the expansion.

It started it's downward trend then, but it wasn't due to the expansion.

When they did the expanion they had a hard time filling up the 250 stalls. Nobody likes to
walk through a half empty mall except criminals.

They may have had a hard time, but all the stalls were full before we left for Germany in '87.
That's true as far as I can remember. We lived about three miles from the mall, so it was a favorite
place to go shopping.

I have been to Springfield Mall about 3 times since about 1985. I lived just North of Ft.
Belvior on the West side of Rt 1.

I read an article a week or so ago that said the days of the big
indoor mall may be over.
The school board bought a big one here that never really took off and
made an office complex out of it.
They had no problem filling all the space with bureaucrats.


Must be a Geographic thing.. Our malls are always packed.

You were close to a lot of shopping. We lived on Newington Road, in Lorton (now it's in Springfield
according to Google Maps). The mall was about the closest thing to get to.

I lived on Wolford Way in Lorton for a couple of years in the late 80's. We liked to call
ourselves "Fairfax Station", which was on the other side of 95. Being associated with DC
prision wasn't quite the lady attractor that some have have thought.

My daughter lived down there for the first year or so of her marriage. They lived on the other side
of Pohick Rd. The DC prison grounds are now Laurel Hill Golf Course. Very nice course - and
expensive for a county course. I play there only when our local Greendale seniors can get an outing
there for about $45. Then it's a great deal.
