  1. And now our current inept governor is trying trying to clean up the "outhouse" of Maryland with the new septic laws.
    Mr Shaefer was a great mayor and did many wonderful things for Baltimore and we could use that leadership here on the shore, but his comment calling the eastern shore the outhouse of Maryland will live on in infamy.

  2. I grew up not far from where this upgrade took place; attended Cardinal Gibbons in the city.

    He did transform that area and made it more presentable. You do not have RATS running around the size of medium size dogs. However, he pushed the low life people out of the city and into the County area; now this area is trashy and run down looking with big crime.
