Baltimore has a tourism dept? what will they think of next..
Money Matters - Part 4
I have NOTHING to do with the Baltimore Tourism Dept.
I just love the city I live in.....
Water can--You can stay in NY--Don't knock a place you have'nt lived in!
You really should come visit Baltimore....The beautiful, touristy Inner Harbor
the Historic places and Museums, Have some of that good seafood we all
take for granted, etc....Nothing like a pile of steamed crabs on a hot summer day.
Besides--you can, actually, find a parking space downtown!
Rent a whole apartment for under $1000/month--maybe even a house!
Sorry you feel that way--but we here are used to these kind of looking-down-on us opinions....
Here is a shot of out beautiful Inner harbor....

Get off it Gita, no one here put down Baltimore... wherever that is..
I was only playing, Gita. I look forward to visiting.
Gita if you want to hang with us gotta be used to sarcasm.
If anyone puts a state down it would be about NJ. Gotta have thick skin...what do they say??? NJ is the armpit of America....
Love visiting Baltimore, but, yes, can't live in any "city" need the burbs. Prefer rural, even
Me too. Want WAY more space! Want to not see any neighbors for miles.
Yep, don't want to know when they come home or go to work or when they have fight.
Rural is too rural for me, the burbs is ok.
No matter what you'll have neighbors and you can't choose them. You just have to be lucky and hope they stick around if they're good ones.
I was lurking in one of the forums the other day and this guy had bought a house with plenty of land near a dairy, instead of deer messing up his garden he had cows that broke though the fencing every now and then..
- I can just see myself trying to get a bunch of 2 or 3000lb cows to move out of my yard! lol!
Burgers!!!!!!!!!!!
lol!!
Good fertilizer too. Just fence in the garden. Would love to have that 'problem.'
Heard on the radio this AM that the national average for gasoline is $3.37, so we are right there.
ugh!
Get off it Gita, no one here put down Baltimore... wherever that is..
$3.05 here
$3.39 as of this am,
- and very happy about it considering the price has dropped by 4¢. ☺!
Don't get used to it.
Good grief, I need to fill up today too....not looking forward to it. There goes $50 something dollars, which is = to 2 new apple tree's :(
Don'tcha hate spending $ for something necessary like gasoline which will be soon used up, when you could buy apple trees that will produce food for a long time?
Don't like dem' apples.
Yes, apples tree's will last for years...long after im gone. The gas will be gone after 4 trips to town. Sometimes living in the country has it drawbacks.
Chicken!!
Well maybe a chicken :)
My oil ETF is up over 5% today. Hee hee!
Wow - just read that 11% of American homes are empty!
...with how many living on the streets and in shelters?
OW!
Wow - another disastrous jobs report. Only 36,000 added, when the forecast was for 140,000. Unemployment rate dropped a lot - down to 9%. That's not good news, however. All it means is that more people just dropped out of the work force.
When will this end???
I heard the forecast this morning, they dropped a hint by adding the fact that a lot of companies have simply learned how to do more with less people. The question was: "what happens to the others?".. that issue still remains unresolved.
They have learned how to get by with making their people do more at this level of activity, but if/when the pace finally picks up, they will have to add workers. Lots of uncertainty still out there. And energy prices shooting up is another expense for businesses (and people.) Like adding another tax.
By way of contrast, Canada added twice as many jobs as the US last month! It was four TIMES higher than forecast.
We should look into hiring their CFO.
Funny that one 'reason' I heard given for our low number was the weather! Duhh. Canada seems to have no problem.
If you don't mind the commute...

They don't want to pay competitive wages..
