I want Wee-Bey's fish tanks.

I would support a lease (say for 10 years), but not an outright sale.



This was the tallest structure in the United States for years.

This actually makes a ton of sense. Now if we could just put Rawlings-Blake in charge of the Orioles...

For fifty bucks Earl Weaver will come to your house and scream at you.

This is one of my favorite buildings in Baltimore, its an old brewery that has been restored, its in the middle of a bad neighborhood.

I lived in Little Italy for a couple of years before they tore down the high-rise projects at the end of the street. Great times, indeed. Lots of cool neighborhoods with amazing architecture.

I'm dating a girl who's originally from just outside of Baltimore, so I've been there as much in the past few months as I had in the rest of my life combined. Gotta say, it's growing on me.

Hon, we gotta do what we gotta do, hon, we gotta sell a few buldings in Bodda-more, hon. Whasamatta, hon?

Hughlander: How much for Poe's grave?

Actually his grave isn't for sale, but the house where he used to live is.



Bonus: Its in the middle of the ghetto.

They've proven down in Williamsburg how well selling historic properties to private parties works as a means of maintaining them works.

You ARE local : )

/ I prefer the Gold Club and The Crazy Russian.

I was terrified of the shot tower when I was a kid. I had a f*cking meltdown in there once when the sparks started flying.

It's a really creepy place.

Nightmares.

Mister Pleco: catsfish: I saw my first murder-suicide aftermath in front of the war memorial building in 1995 or so. It was gross.

My Baltimore murder-suicide experience was at Lexington Market about a couple years after your experience. My gf and I played hooky from work that day and we couldn't tell anyone about it :/

i was going to John's Hopkins hospital last year about 2 miles out on Rte. 40 at an intersection, two undercover police officers swarm the car in front of us. They're pulling out little thugs and taking guns off of them. The girl driving was high as sh*t.

I have pictures somewhere. My mom was crying and ducking, my brother was ducking and I was in the back seat taking pictures.

RibbyK: Is your last name Zapruder?

HAH! No but I've caught some heinous things on film.

cjmook21: I haven't been to an O's game since that farking hotel went up. Not the same without seeing that clock tower lit up blue at night.

also, i was recently telling the story of a game i went to in 1996 which at the time, was the 2nd or 3rd longest 9 innning game in history, and I believe remains the only game in history to ever end in a full count, 2 out, bottom of the 9th grand slam. Chris Hoiles FTW.

Just checked. It is true. From wiki:

By early 1996, Hoiles' offensive production had diminished to the point to where the Orioles tried to drop him from the team by exposing him through waivers, but he managed a comeback.[13] On May 17, 1996, Hoiles joined the list of 23 major league players who have hit an ultimate grand slam when he hit a grand slam in the bottom of the ninth inning with the Baltimore Orioles down by three runs against the Seattle Mariners.[14] Hoiles' feat was made even more unique, as he hit his home run on a full count with 2 outs, the only time in major league history this has ever been recorded.[15][16]

I have the ticket still but i can't acess my host. will post later if i can remember.
