There be Strollers!It’s summer in the Burg. Every Tuesday afternoon the city hosts lunch in Hurkamp Park–Burgers, dogs, related munchies, and live entertainment. As can be seen this event has become the “hang-out” for the Mommy set. Strollers and todd…
While infrequently, it’s still surprising how often I agree with Pat Buchanan. Once in a while he nails it. Recently he’s been in full tilt wingnut mode over the Sotomayor nomination, but today he defended Obama’s measured response to the Iranian election “results”…

New event added! Because of the limited number of seats available, and the speed in which the upcoming Brooklyn Brewery Beer Dinner sold out, Capital Ale House has added a beer and cheese tasting with Garrett Oliver, to be held in the beer cellar at th…

Well, in a battle between The Caroline Progress and […]
This radar view from 7:21 pm tonight shows an arc-shaped feature west of Baltimore that caught my attention. When I looped the image I noticed the feature was moving westward before it eventually diffused and died. Not having seen the earlier radar i…
Not only was his win here over Hillary Clinton one of his most impressive victories of all the state primaries and caucuses last year, but Barack Obama was the first Democrat to carry the state in the general election since Lyndon Johnson in 1964. And it was no accident. Ignoring the critics (you know who […]
