Same! It was a surprise to our family after my sister recently did 23 & Me.

It kinda made sense though, because all my friends growing up were Jewish, some of the most influential and important people in my life are Jews, and I’ve always felt a kindred connection to the religion and its values.

Reply to I’ve always wondered why is there a cop car always with its lights on on the intersection of Light and W. Conway St ? by Mxuw

I wonder why there’s a cop on the corner of Charles and E. Mt Royal ave every night when I’ve witnessed no less than 4 people run the red while making a left from the right lane in the past month.

Useless.

edit

to the person who responded to this comment with “they’re there for crime not traffic violations” and deleted it:

  1. Running a red light can have pretty horrible repercussions when it occurs at a busy intersection with students and other people crossing Charles Street all the time. Especially at night.

  2. If you think putting the lights on, pulling through an intersection and giving someone a ticket would magically open up the flood gates from crime to occur on the other side of the intersection, I have a bridge to sell you.

  3. Picking and choosing what rules and/or laws you enforce is exactly what makes people feel entitled to do it in the first place. Traffic enforcement works in several ways, one of which is deterrence.

I’m not talking about a state inspection, I’m talking about a private, pre-purchase inspection at a trusted mechanic. It’s a good way to both see if there are any major issues with the car, and have a little bargaining chip if it needs work.

If it’s just the subframe, get onto LKQ’s website and try to find a junked Focus of a similar year. Their pick and pull yards are: Baltimore (Erdman ave), Mt. Airy, Hawkins Pt. and Edgewood.

It’ll take some time and effort but you may luck out and be able to find one in better shape for a much cheaper price than from Ford.

You’ll still have to pay for someone to drop the old one and bolt everything up to the new one and install it, but you’ll save some cash that way.

Also a good tip: Pay for a Pre-Purchase inspection for any vehicle you’re looking to buy. $100-$150 will go a long way to prevent this kind of headache. Good luck!

Yeah, it’s a little pricey, my wife took me for my birthday.

She had the risotto and loved it, and can be very particular, so that’s a good bet. We also had the latin gyoza, the halloumi and corn cake (incredible) and I had the octopus. For dessert we split the cacao cake.

Get some pepper spray and remind yourself that the only thing worse than one teenager is multiple teenagers. White, black, male, female, it doesn’t matter.

Many people have asked, and I wonder too, where did this happen?

Oh dude do not go anywhere but Prime Care Auto in Dundalk. Siwan the owner currently has my 2001 330ci and is doing a LOT of work to it. He’s a BMW specialist and my car is always the shittiest one there (which IMO is a good thing).
