Five Things I Learned in Baltimore, MD
* Never, ever, ever use Dollar Rent-a-Car. Ever.
* Every inch of I-95 between New York City and Baltimore is a toll road. 190 miles, 5 states, $16.
*Expensive vodka and cheap chardonnay are a lethal combination inside one's stomach, even if said stomach contains a hamburger and french fries.
* If you are sent to purchase 20 sets of ear plugs for Rite-Aid employees at their Annual Corporate Meeting, you cannot go to the CVS across the street. You must walk a few extra blocks to Rite-Aid. It's only fair; they paid for Sheryl Crow.
* Humble Pie is a dish best served in large portions, and and eaten quickly and frequently over the course of a less-than-24-hour visit.
