Does anyone get the feeling Bel Air has become anti-young people?

Boomers, Boomers everywhere.

Lack of affordable housing, new apartment projects getting shut down time and time again (and when they do go through they're luxury aka non affordable) a terrible public transportation system, very few "entertainment" things outside of restaurants, axe throwing and the library. I could go on.

Any time I walk around my town it's 80 boomers for every 20 millenials/Zers

All the projects/events the town passes seems to be only aimed at the elderly.

Spend your money, or get out, don't vote liberal or be under 55.

Does anyone else get that impression?

Best Farm Stand Eggs

So I recently found a homestead produce and egg stand and while their eggs are large and fairly priced they aren't as deep of a orange yolk as I was hoping for. So I wanted to see what some recommendations are for high quality eggs in the county.

AT&T Outage In Bel Air

Does anyone know what is going on with the cell service in Bel Air? AT&T services have been down in town for 3 days now and no sign of coming back. I know there was recently a national outage but it seems that most places have already gotten cell restored. Plus on the AT&T website it it does not show any sign of an outage.

Is there some sort of dog virus going around?

My dogs have been sick with vomiting and diarrhea off and on for weeks, it is persistent despite multiple prescriptions, negative for parasites, had to switch to prescription food and still battling it. I’ve been to the vet once a week for 6 weeks. Chatting with a woman in Barrons, her dog has it. Went to get probiotics and the cashier was saying her dog has it. Just got a call from my neighbor and her dogs have the same thing. Is it a coincidence or is there something happening here?

Jury duty question

A month ago, I was selected for harford jury duty for September 26, associated with a reporting number of 1 (I filled out my questionnaire online). When calling the harford county website the night before my assigned date of reporting, In that phone call recording, it specified that reporting numbers between 33-180 were to report for jury duty. Additionally, it said that all other persons are cancelled and your obligation is now complete for this calendar year. Does this mean that im good for the year and don’t have a reporting number associated with me anymore because it was specifically for the date of sep 26? Or does this mean that i can still be called to report for jury duty on any other following day, if my reporting number of 1 is called to report?

Beer & wine sales.

Why can we buy beer & wine in a convenience store like 7 Eleven but not in a grocery store? I've been to plenty of other states where the grocery stores have a whole aisle for beer and wine. Is it to protect the liquor stores?

Nutjob Cult Member Waving Trump Flag

There's a Nutjob Cult Member waving a Trump flag and sign outside a pharmacy in Bel Air.

Why do these weirdos think this is normal behavior.

Edit: Removed the specific location as I don't want to be accused of trying to insight violence on someone who is exercising their First Amendment right. I just think it's insane cult like behavior to support someone like this. Would be the same if it was a person with a Harris flag.

Southern District HCPS schools on modified lockdown

The reason I heard was pretty vague, "out of an abundance of caution for an ongoing (action? investigation?) by the sheriff."

There's nothing on the HCPS website or the Sheriff's website.

Much appreciated if anybody has an update. (Its 12:40 ATM.

The Baltimore Sun had a headline saying it was because of a child being struck on Willoughby Beach road near the middle school.

WBAL had this:

https://www.wbal.com/sheriffs-office-10-schools-in-harford-county-on-modified-lockdown/

Which mentions a search for a "person in crisis" but does not seem to be related to the car accident.
