The original is from the 70s. It may have been Bob Hieronomous as he was doing work for the city around then.

VPN or SuperBox is the only way. MASN has fans lined up to pay for a streaming app yet doesn’t give a rat’s ass.

It’s dank and cheap still. Not sure about the one-time admission though.

Sue the fuck out of them.

Wok & Pot on Westminster downtown is awesome for soju. They have some crazy cocktails with popsicles even. Fun place!

Following (since I can’t recall seeing one since the 80s).

Awesome. It’s a shame the Bel Loc location just got shut down under false pretenses at the sniff of unionization. I hope these locations get what they need to survive.

You are spot on with the Agora mention. Prior to 2020, there were about 1,500 Agora employees in Mt. Vernon that ate out for lunch mostly due to the awkward arrangement of the re-purposed classic MV buildings most Agora subsidiary companies occupy + an abundance of options. They key here being "lunch"; after 5PM, those 1,500 folks left MV for the surrounding counties or Fells/Canton/Fed Hill. The pandemic saw a drastic reduction in Agora employee presence, obviously, that impacted those lunch numbers (City Cafe was one of the first to go), and a reduction in the Agora workforce post-pandemic is not bringing any of those places back.

If a product or service was of any true value would it be sold door to door in 2022?

Spot on. Patagonia’s PR team works miracles in selling this farce.

BOP isn’t yuppie stuff and has been in Fells Point for at least 25 years. It’s not great and certainly not worth what they are charging but it’s not bougie by any stretch.

If weirder = better and doesn’t include the Zuckerverse, totally.

You won’t find anything that compares, BBQ is not in the DNA. If you insist, I can tell you Durk’s is not the place for you.

It was a grand time!

Clear got me through in 10 mins this past weekend. Worth every dime.
