My blasphemy for the day: I don't know why we need a constant supply of new microbreweries/brews. - con_carne Feb 24, 09:33 3
- some people like to try new things. no-one says you can't buy the same beers you like over and over. -- nm - Andie Feb 24, 09:39
- We already have a lot of books. Why would anyone write another one? -- nm - Mop (205 lbs) Feb 24, 09:34 1
  - Also see, wine. -- nm - Roger More Feb 24, 09:50
Why is #16's map all warped looking? -- nm - Inigo Feb 24, 09:24 3
- The cartogram? They remove the land area as a factor and use something else. -- nm - mara Feb 24, 09:31 2
  - I'd never heard of a cartogram before. It makes my brain want to punch my eyes out for looking at it. -- nm - Inigo Feb 24, 09:40 1
    - Sadly, I have. I did not even look at it. - Spawn Lord Feb 24, 09:40
#20 WTF, ML? -- nm - Spawn Lord Feb 24, 09:15 2

  - It broke the map! -- nm - Spawn Lord Feb 24, 09:22
"No Promo Homo Laws" -- nm - volnelk Feb 24, 09:10 4
- Yeah, I did a double take at that -- nm - prayformojo Feb 24, 09:11 3
  - That phrase has been around for a long time, and I wouldn't be surprised if lawyers coined it, due to its pseudo-Latin construction. -- nm - mara Feb 24, 09:15 2
    - Also, it pretty much sums up the maturity level of thinking behind these laws. -- nm - ty97 Feb 24, 09:18 1
      - It also drives me nuts because when I read "Homo" I always think homo sapien. -- nm - Spawn Lord Feb 24, 09:21
It's eye-opening to me how "rich" Maryland is. I don't see us as a wealthy state, but apparently we are. -- nm - Inigo Feb 24, 09:07 4
- I imagine the portion nearest DC is skewing the results. - ty97 Feb 24, 09:12 3
  - Don't overlook the fact outside the metro corridors, there's a lot of farmland....land = $$$$. - Will Hunting Feb 24, 09:27 1
    - this. and isn't Maryland kind of hor$ey? -- nm - Diva Feb 24, 09:52
  - Oh, definitely, but I didn't think it would make us the richest state. -- nm - Inigo Feb 24, 09:23
I love these. Thanks -- nm - prayformojo Feb 24, 09:02 1
- YW. I enjoy stuff like this too. My biggest surprise was that NY ranks rather low on the alcohol excise taxes. -- nm - ty97 Feb 24, 09:17
