.       My favorite Christmas present this year was a pareof Socks (lol) . But as you can see these weren’t ordinary old socks . As a young boy I became a hugefan of the 1966 Baltimore Orioles and my favorite player Frank Robinson . Anchoring 3B was future Hall of Famer and the most beloved Oriole ever ,Brooks Robinson . Finally there was a 3rd future Hall of Famer , 20 year old Jim “ Cakes “ Palmer, whoshowed up big in his World Series win. In addition,larger than life Boog “BQ” Powell hit a ton of HR’s playing 1B. At SS was veteran Luis Aparicio one of the best Shortstops for over 10 years and a very dangerous baserunner ( SB Leader ) .   The O’s won the American League Championship and were huge underdogs against the reigning Champs the LA Dodgers . Everyone ( but the O’s) knew it wa...

Renew Baltimore - Breathing Life Back into Our CityFor as long as I can remember Baltimore City and its residents have been paying higher property taxes than surrounding counties.Renew Baltimore is encouraging registered voters in the City of Baltimore to sign their petition to limit and lower Baltimore City's Property tax rate.  Their goal is to help every neighborhood in the city by lowering the cost of living and increasing property values.  Lowering the property tax rate will encourage job growth in the city by helping businesses.  More people would be encouraged to stay in the city and to move to Baltimore if the property tax rates were lower.  And, with a lower tax rate investors would be more interested in converting the high number of vacant and boarded-up homes to livable resid...
