You aren't really crying unless you are standing between two rails.

Verde in canton is excellent

Having this much focus on city council pensions is kinda wild. That’s such a tiny tiny portion of the budget and tbqh a very reasonable thing have regardless…

Oh darn!! Their pizza was one of my favorite, too bad

Haha, if you do the UA HQ, better go after the fitness center closes, otherwise you'll be sobbing to the beat of some pumped up jams.

Pretty sure Dorsey worked at the family business, Soundscape.

It's good but like everything else it's become hella expensive. Oddly, the best thing there is the risotto.

You’re correct about per government position. Though I still think this law is bullshit. Also I’m not a troll because I fucking live here. I’m a concern citizen and know that term limit is bs for legislators.

There’s a lot of problems with Baltimore politics and this isn’t going to fix anything.

Buddy the analogy is not really working since nobody said you can’t check on the status of the buildings. I encourage the city to do that. So you’re just not really making the point you think you are. The fact that a possibility exists this church is lying (which you’ve yet to give a credible reason for) does not mean it’s likely.

I really don’t think they are. Feel free to see my comments below after viewing the property from behind.

Hah hah hah. We don't have any principled people in Baltimore City politics now sooooooooooo....

I’m not making any allegations, I’m just not believing theirs without further proof. Now would you like to buy a 2003 Honda Accord with only 465,877 miles? Runs perfect, never had a problem. Cash only and you can’t see it first. I mean you wouldn’t ‘make allegations’ against me by not believing me right.

I went ahead and visually inspected the buildings, comments below. In short, these buildings are in a frightful state, and have likely been like that for many many years.

Hey! I’ve cried there too!

Hah hah hah. First cut down on how many years they can serve, then limit their pensions, so there is really no reason why a principled person would want to be in politics.

Very clever, Baltimore voters. Very clever.

I used to eat Al Pacinos all the time off of falls road, but hasn’t been the same since they changed ownership years back.

RIP Well Crafted Kitchen in the Union tap room.

Feel free to see my comment on the state of the building below after visually inspecting it from behind.

>Years ago council members had full time jobs in addition to being the council rep. It’s absurd these council reps have no other source of income, do very little for the areas they represent, and expect a full pension after eight years.

I don't want my councilmember to have another obligation- I want them full time committed to me and my needs as a constituent.

Feel free to see my comment below after visually inspecting the rear of this particular structure.

In my research of Washington DC history, I have learned that members of Congress have generally done well for themselves. There are so many primary, secondary and artery ways they benefit from their position in office. It need not be by bribes or payola. The same is true with city council members. It is suppose to be a part time job, but from what I have seen up-close, they are working the system either for power or remuneration in one form or another every time they are in the public eye and almost always behind closed doors. More of us, including myself, need to show up for events which the councilmen host or take part in . You will see a small cadre of people constantly vie for the councilman's attention. These are almost always people wanting some favor or business deal with they can get from that elected official.

The whole idea that they should benefit from a pension esp now that they have a two term limit, it icing on the cake.

Hersh’s!

While they may not have the greatest pizza in the city, I do still love JBGB’s because on top of the solid pizza, they they have plenty of other options that are all great from what I’ve tried. Awesome drink program too.
