Free or best offer- 1 female crappy bike.
I’m now on my 3rd 3 speed and I want to be rid of the old bike. The problem occurred when the front brake broke. I just fixed the back brake, sort of, then this happens. And at some point the bike will need new tires. The tires look like crap, but currently are serviceable.
The good points about the bike? First, it’s a woman’s bike meaning you can bike

I have not seen for the longest because my commute changed and even with my old commute seeing him was more miss than hit. But there he was, opposite the door from me in all his hunky dweebie handsome Clark Kent glassy geekiness. OMG he’s so handsome I could barely look at him directly

One being space. Pictured is one of several empty lots. This is a huge lot. It could eat up 3, maybe 4 Shaw blocks. If this thing were in Shaw, It’d be a dog park by now, it is so, so big.Maybe that’s another thing I noticed about Chicago

The DC Latino PAC stands for equal political representation, justice in housing, access to healthcare, free and appropriate education, equal employment opportunities, and safe communities.
It is a privilege to have the organization’s support and to be the only non-incumbent candidate that received this honor.
You can read their press released here.

The sales tax exemption applies to each eligible item regardless of how many items are sold on the same bill to a customer. It will also apply to layaway sales if the retailer and customer enter into a layaway agreement or the customer makes the final payment on the layaway order during the exemption period.
It’s a good opportunity to support our local businesses.
For more information about the Sales Tax holiday, click here or call (202) 727-4TAX (4829).

One day I had a question, a question that fun Census data could answer. Who’s actually from here? There are DC natives, they proudly mention that they are from here. But so many people I meet around
