Vegetables for the children!

Don't miss Carol Ott of Baltimore Slumlord Watch talking to CBS evening news. A poignant piece, but wish Jeff Pegues had reported anything about why there are so many vacants and what the city is(n't) doing about them.

Look who's taking too: city insiders are using clergymen as a front to get at a $25 million piece of the Harbor Point project. ... but it's for vegetables and Internet for the children! Think of the children! What kind of Nazi Teahadist could take a radish out of the hands of a preacher who is going to get a kickback to feed it to an innocent child? A racist one, probably.

Tavon White has entered a guilty plea. Speaking of children, wonder what will become of all of his?

We talked a lot about the idiocy of the 16,000 number for vacants, the bad data that's out there, and why the city looks the way it does. I was a little dismayed that none of it made it into the piece. On the flip side, hey it was 4 hours of discussion narrowed down to 3 minutes of news. I just wish it had been less of me walking aimlessly down the street, and more discussion.
