Virginiamaxine, indeed.

Hi Drew,
That information is not online but came from the Department of Public Safety.
Thanks,

Re: “Two weeks without the Possum, Part One: John Howie Jr. reflects on his youth and an evening with George Jones”
The two tributes to George Jones are brilliant insightful writings by two accomplished musicians. Certainly we are warned of the humiliations that can come from fame, others knowing too much about your business, by the lives of people like George Jones, whose business is their lives, and what they have to sell.
Some of us survive and just to be spiteful. Others end up walking around like demigods looking down quietly and kindly.
Sounds like Georges Jones was in the latter category.
I admit that some of my note here is informed by being close enough to watch Mr,Jones backstage as the electrician on a show in the Greensboro Auditorium. I am grateful to know both Mr. Howie, and Mr. Maxwell. Mr. Maxwell is on the road to having his own magazine, and or a show on VICE.

Re: “The week in music: May 8-15, 2013”
This may seem picky but in the Krakenfest write-up, there is a geographical error. Hwy 54 runs from Carrboro to Saxapahaw and then Graham but never to Pittsboro. Pittsboro is off 15-501 or Hwy 64. Thanks.
Re: “The ripple effect: NAACP's Barber and civil disobedience in Raleigh”
FYI, the Associated Press interviewed the Rev. Barber today. He confirmed that the "Moral Monday" protests will continue, with the next one coming in four days, May 13: http://www.wral.com/nc-naacp-says-monday-d…
Re: “Radius Pizzeria: An exciting menu that falls short on execution”
This food critic should do a simple thing as research before going to a restaurant. The dough was not "yeasty" enough for you? They don't use yeast!
If you wanted a large "yeasty" pie to feed the table and have left overs... you should visit Vinny's. You will get all the partially raw, overloaded with sauce, and yeasty dough you would ever want to eat.
And I can't agree more about the comments of visiting on Last Friday. And a few times before that. Nice, so your visits were all during the first 50 days of operation.
Very unprofessional on your part to rip apart a brand new business without giving them time to train staff and work out the bugs and menu.
Re: “Having Your Turkey and Eating It, Too”
Thank you! I am raising two of these and now I'm thinking I should have gotten more:)

Why does downtown Durham shut down so early?
Re: “Ultimate Comics”
If you love comic books, come to Ultimate. They have an incredible selection and a staff that not only loves to read comics, but love to share them with readers new and established. The store is incredibly nice and and their events are legend!
Re: “Support group Straight Talk helps families of prisoners”
Could you please provide the links on the NC Dept of Public Safety page that justify your telephone calling rate claims? I found contradictory information. First, it appears that inmate telephone calls are limited to ten (10) minutes, thereby making fifteen (15) phone calls very unlikely. Source: NC Division of Prisons, Policy & Procedures, Chapter D, Section .0800, http://www.doc.state.nc.us/dop/policy_proc…. Second, the only rate information I could find online concerned the fees that families are charged to setup prepay accounts with Global Tel*Link. Source: https://www.ncdps.gov/Index2.cfm?a=000003,….
Thank you,
Drew Kukorowski

Re: “Seeing Durham through the bottom of a glass”
Some more to add to this list. Arguably the coolest bar in town, The Republic, located between Whisky and Mateo. A new bar, Bar Lusconi, just opened downtown. Wine bars are missing from this list. Two that come to mind are West End Wine Bar and Six Plates. G2B has some of the most esoteric beer selections in town.

Re: “Johnson Family Barbecue is some of the best around—if you can get it”
If you'd like a primer on how NOT to engage your potential customers as a new restaurant owner, please read the comments that Wayne Johnson (owner of Johnson Family BBQ) has entered on the Carpe Durham blog discussion about his restaurant. First rule of the primer should be, "don't swear at your customers and/or call them rude names".

Re: “The ripple effect: NAACP's Barber and civil disobedience in Raleigh”
100% agreement here. There is no finer leader in the State than Dr. Rev. William Barber II. There has never been a greater cause in this State where all persons need, if nothing else, the basic information and motives of this General Assembly. If you were there to see the concern, knew the true goals of the General Assembly, and were fortunate to have been among those that stood up, took a stand, and saw the actions, perhaps you would understand this is about all the Citizens of NC. I proudly let them cuff me to help expose their cruel, mean spirited agenda. To do nothing is the real sin!!!
Re: “Radius Pizzeria: An exciting menu that falls short on execution”
Our restaurant reviews are intentionally focused on highly anticipated, newly opened locations, as suggested by the column name: First Bite. As there are roughly 2,000+ restaurants in the Triangle area, this is helpful in limiting the scope. If the experience is overall unsatisfactory, we may return six months later for a second review.
