Mr. Miller, I’m taking a family of 6 (4 kids) to the state fair Sunday. They are facing some hard times - so I’m treating them. Are there any coupons or discounts available anywhere? Art LaPole 301-343-2033

How sad that things have to be changed because certain scum bags can't keep it together. The Havre de Grace pardade is something my family has done for years and now can't even feel safe to come there. S. Ward Joppatowne

The city of baltimore is growing,in what manner?Some people don't welcome the change,the new condos.The prices the go with them the rebuilding,yes the areas look great looking at the big picture.And the people that have to move,out of there surroundings,well some know no other way of life.What will happen next only time will tell,my self I welcome the wonderful condos,the picture book look,but that is only my eyes.The new things that will come about,that have been over due for some.New people out front now new faces that are of old.Get ready Baltimore hold on for the ride.The city already looks like another place,and where are some of the old faces,they have faded.
