But now it\u2019s surrounded by new swanky apartments on the north side of Crump, and on the south side there\u2019s now a bar that serves breakfast, late night, and everything in between. In other words, this lot now has 3 advantages going for it:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>location<\/li>\n<li>location<\/li>\n<li>location<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>I wonder what\u2019ll become of it.

Over on Medium, I have a regular reader in Spain who wants to leave me a tip. However, none of the payment methods in my footer (Venmo, Cash App, Apple Pay) will let him initiate the transfer. Any recs for a global cash transfer service? I bank with Ally Bank if that makes a difference.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s it. I stayed out last night, so you get an early post today.
