Zayre's had an amazing toy section upstairs, at least I thought so as a kid. Funnest part of that Zayre's was there was an elevator with stairs right next to it. One of us get on the elevator and one use the stairs and race to see who got there first. Good times.

Maybe the law has changed, but I know at one point commercial pots had rings, although smaller round rings I believe. Your statement that homeowners check their pots more often than commercial couldn't be more off. You are forgetting all the weekenders and people who leave them over and only...

Had Raising Cane's for the first time a few weeks back near Westminster. Really good, but their menu is 4 things. 3 different chicken tender meals or a Chicken Sandwich consisting of 3 tenders on a bun, if I recall. Crinkle cut fries and another spin on their own sauce, but I liked their...

If the Kingfisher is also the old Stoney's, I heard from some Cobb Island folks that the guy that was running the old Shymansky's as Capt Charles may be heading there. He has been evicted I believe from Shymansky's. Probably won't be good.

Plenty of locals rape the rivers every visit, too, commercial and recreational.

A classic basic McCormick/Old Bay recipe calls for beef broth as the base, and for lima beans and not string. Gotta have fresh corn in there as well.

I think the one in Charlotte Hall was put on hold or not approved due to lot size restrictions and how the turn lanes would work off Route 5, among other things. It's probably in appeals process or something at county govt level.

I'm not saying this is their reason, but they make these ready-made breadings - like Golden Dipt and House of Autry etc -- and you think they are plain looking and need seasoning, but they are all heavily salted already. If they add more salt, Old Bay, it can make it crazy salty.

Do they still or won't they run a shuttle from leonard hall/courthouse or college down to waterfront?

Yes, they will let you park on property. There's a parking garage out back also where most park. Nice building. They used to have a canteen with small snack bar in the building, but depends on who the contractor is what may be there. Sometimes would be food, sometimes was just snacks/carry...

side question - are fire trucks equipped to be able to just pull from the river in these types of waterfront places or do they still need to hook to a water source. Seems I remember the boats doing testing/maintenance while overboard and just spraying and figured it was just a suction hose put...

Pretty sure it's illegal to require a minimum for credit card, but not sure on a fee just to use credit. I've seen places like antique stores and other online businesses charge more if using a card as opposed to ACH, etc. On the carryouts, I'm not sure if it's tied to any new laws re: having...

Tyler Boeh does a good job describing country music but I think I hear Chicken Fried and Don't Take the Girl plagiarized a bit in there.

Cane Corsos and Presa Canarios seem to be the popular replacement in PG. We do animal control hearings where things happen with loose dogs or chained up dogs, and these are the two I hear the most often. But PG animal control is pretty hard on them; a dog bites another person or attacks, it's...

Yes - there's a huge new subdivision going on the Eastern Shore in Trappe, called Lakeside, right off 50. Was a hot topic for a long time due the creeks and tributaries there. It was really contested by locals and the River Keeper organizations. But they've started construction in the last...
