White Marsh isn’t even a real place. In fact, nowhere in Baltimore County is, technically.

A lot of people would be surprised that there are two Aldi companies and one of them is called Trader Joe’s in the US.

Nice strawman - all I said was that the "war zone" and "boots-on-the-ground" language is parroting Fox News, I didn't say Baltimore is a perfect place.

Those are people who either only watch Fox45 and Fox News, or watched The Wire and didn’t understand it.

The “one incident” being the WWWY festival? Because those takes were greatly exaggerated.

Exactly. You need to prove you’re you in some way. When I went, I had the sample ballot they mailed to my address and they asked me a few ID question

The building has been renovated numerous times and most recently renovated in 2014, so although on the National Historic Registry since 1986 I’m fairly sure they have addressed your concerns.

Reply to comment by todareistobmore in What the hell happened to BOP in Fells Point? by TylerFL
Maybe you're buying some super expensive pepperoni (idk, I'm vegetarian so I've never bought it in my life), but the unit cost for flour, salt, water, oil, cheese, and marinara sauce are pretty damn inexpensive.
I just think $22 for their full cheese or $28 for full pepperoni, along with sides >$10, seems a bit expensive but not super surprising given their being in Power Plant Live (as in, just like BOP's pricing - tourist & drunks inflation). It sucks because I love UPC's pizza.

It’s super good Detroit pizza, but the prices are just ridiculous and are the tourist tax from their location

A waterway is essentially an existing right-of-way. It’s simple enough to just view the Jones Falls and think “oh, we don’t even have to tear anything down and it connects exactly where we need”
Also remember that the 50s highway planning ethos was about defense (both in alignment and design) and the suburbs.

Reply to Maryland’s transportation department asks for public feedback on I-695/I-70 Interchange project by BmoreCityDOT
Yes yes yes, I agree and get it, more money to alternative transportation - however, this is a huge system interchange and given that it’s essentially I-70’s eastern terminus it’s important to be maintained and issues with it improved. This doesn’t seem to be another of Larry’s “but what if we just add more lanes” “solutions”

Jokes aside, malfunctioning traffic lights should be treated as four-way stops. There are also places in the world where yellow might be on simultaneously with green or red to indicate the light impending changing.

> We're also planning to get our wills made soon and, at that point, may just have a contract drawn up that formalizes the percentage each of us owns.
I know this is offtopic to form stone, but make sure to have independent lawyers assist each of you separately. That’s essentially a prenup.

That’s $13-16k adjusted for inflation depending on the exact year.
