well i don't know if i'm coming at all, or at least i don't know when i would, but there was a link to the museum on the cosmic thread why because it look intersting.

AVAM can be pretty awesome depending on what the major exhibition is.
― kkvgz, Monday, 26 July 2010 19:31 (thirteen years ago) link
I would def. take that into consideration when planning a trip.
avam is really cool imo, although the only time i was there was when there was a neat exhbition/special day going on.

oh i wld def go there. i assume it is both appaling and inspiring, sometimes at the same time.

I had never heard of that. Thanks!
This past weekend I went to a friend's kid's birthday party at Fort Howard Park, which had some cool, explorable, run-down historic buildings, if anybody's into that kind of stuff.
― kkvgz, Tuesday, 27 July 2010 12:04 (thirteen years ago) link
used to love the haunted dungeons at ft howard! they prob still do it, weekends in october... awesome place to take kids. museum of dentistry is great too. there's even a life size narwhal model.
haven't been to avam in a few years, so can't vouch for the current exhibit, but i've never been disappointed by past ones. there's a second building that's been open for a while now with large scale sculpture stuff from their permanent collection. also it's open late on thursdays for the rest of the summer, and they show outdoor movies then too.

maryland and bmore folks are the beaches in maryland nice. any recs for good daytrips for the family?
― dyao, Thursday, 29 July 2010 21:08 (thirteen years ago) link
depends what you're looking for... ocean city is classic for the busy/trashy boardwalk and bars, mini golf and bumper cars type stuff. rehoboth up the highway in DE is kind of a lower key version of that. assateague could be a good day trip if you're more into wild ponies and birds and outdoorsy nature things. haven't been to any of these places in several years though.
― selected ambient worker (another al3x), Thursday, 29 July 2010 22:20 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah, my mom lives in Rehoboth so we always go to the beach there. been to Ocean City a lot, but more for the boardwalk/games/rides/shops, have very rarely actually spent time on the beach there. haven't been to Assateague in ages but have good memories.

"This is a perfect example of why we need officers down there who aren't afraid to enforce the laws," said Robert F. Cherry, president of the Fraternal Order of Police lodge. "Good police work involves being proactive on the smaller level as well, and the business community has said it had an issue with skateboarders who trespass and deface property. … Lo and behold, three years later the homicide unit locks up a skateboarder."

Pretty stoked about the rebuild of the Route 40 bridge over the Patapsco. There are lots of reasons that section of road is so scary, but the old crumbly bridge takes the cake for me.

― john water (harbl), Monday, 4 October 2010 21:10 (thirteen years ago) link
is it the next big thing now
>Why
in most cities when you dj John Oswald you clear the floor, but in Baltimore that's apparently when everyone starts line dancing
I was talking to Jason Willett and he mentioned a previous party: "I had them dancing to a Teach Your Parakeet To Sing record, and I wasn't even mixing it with anything. It was just 'Hello! How Are You! Hello! How Are You!', and the entire room was on fire"
― Milton Parker, Monday, 4 October 2010 23:01 (thirteen years ago) link
xp: harbl, until I got to the article I thought you were talking about Lake Trout the band: "Hm. Maybe jazzy flute solos are going to be the first big '90s revival of the '10s..."

He said of Monday's incident, "It's not a stunt. It's a statement." He denied that he had left the toilet at the courthouse, but in a post on his Facebook page about 7:30 a.m. Monday, he wrote: "Left my Toilet at the Baltimore County Courthouse. Also left a kite of Knowledge. Secrets will not Block Justice."
According to his Facebook profile, Davis owns Shorty's Underground Pit Beef Shack in Upperco. Reached by phone at the restaurant, he at first denied knowing anything about the toilet. Later, he said he boasted on his Facebook page about leaving it so that his supporters, who are responsible, "don't get in trouble for it."
