7 AM on a Sunday. Wow. It’s a good thing it happened at a time where no one was in the building. //sarc

The worst part is we have to get this news thru the Daily Mail.

The internet edition of the Daily Mail is more loosely edited than the paper version. And the paper version makes the New York Post (of “Headless body in topless bar” fame) seem upmarket.

Maybe Maryland should devote some funds to their infrastructure instead of fighting the fake climate change scam, gun control, abortion rights, etc.

Here's an intriguing comment from the DailyMail comment site:
SarafinaQ, St Flonzelay, United States, 11 hours ago

Columbia gas again? From their own website: "On May 22, 2019, Columbia Gas of Maryland filed a request with the Maryland Public Service Commission to increase its base rates. See detailed information about the requested rate increase." So, crazy coincidence?

This is my vicinity. It’s close to a popular Ford dealer (not for us anymore), and the new Texas Roadhouse (which we like but our son hates the peanuts).

Biggest injury risk would’ve been related to the hotel down the street. Early Sunday morning, luckily, not too many people will be there anyway. It’s just businesses.

BTW, we stayed in bed and heard/felt NOTHING.

‘owner of Anxiety Treatment Center of Maryland, also said her business was “completely obliterated.”’

Boy, that’s not going to help those patients/clients, is it?
