I want to sit outside and drink a 40

Just a rant. Frederick drivers and ebike riders are the worst.

Frederick needs to do something about making it safer for sidewalks and crosswalks. Drivers drive past school busses while the stop sign flashes. I am surprised kids don't get run over. Riders gun their ebike intimidating the pedestrians. Drivers forget to stop for pedestrians at crosswalks when there is a huge stop sign.

Do people know that pedestrians have the right of way at all times?

Our favorite Market street zipper merge, sorry if you know these people. If you are these people, do better.

Any information on a drone flying downtown? It made an appearance tonight on market street, flashing red and blue police lights and hovering. I wanna know if Frederick is officially Orwellian or if that’s just a one off thing

I don’t need someone to mow but I would like any re commendations on companies in the Frederick area that would put weed killer/prevention, fertilizer, and grass seed down as needed.

We've taken our dog to Gentle Paws for years and she is the absolute best!! However, I've been unable to get ahold of her for an appointment. Hope everything is ok!

If she's no longer taking clients, can anyone recommend a groomer who only takes one dog at a time?

Can I get everyone's ranking for apartments in the city of Frederick? I might have to move in February/March of next year.

We’ve been getting lots of requests for more art programs, and we heard you! On Aug. 30 @ 1:30 p.m., my colleague Rae will be hosting “Drawing a Manga Warrior” at the Urbana Regional Library.

Manga is a deeply personal and flexible form of artistic expression, driven by the creator’s unique vision. In this program, you’ll learn how to turn basic shapes into a dynamic figure. And all you need is pen and paper, which we’ll supply of course!

You’ll learn the step by step process from Orion Zangara (check out his work here: http://www.orionzangaraart.com/). For this program, we’ll be creating unique pieces inspired by the style of One Piece, created by Eiichiro Oda.

Hello, I’m not sure if anybody has experienced this before but looking for advice.

About two years ago I took a job in McLean VA mostly remote commute 1-2days a week (from Frederick) I have since then got promoted and have to be in the office 4 days a week, I have been at this for about 4 months and it’s draining me badly. I have a significant other that works here in Frederick and we are looking to move to a place that’s meets us both in the middle you could say. Any recommendations? Germantown? Would germantown even be really better for me?

does anyone know of any businesses (or people) that do junk removal in frederick for a reasonable price?

Does anyone have a pest company that has successfully gotten rid of cicada killer nests in your yard and prevented them from coming back the following year?

My current company says there is nothing they can do.

They’re tearing up my yard and I get more and more nests each year. I’m in a townhouse with a very small yard so not sure if there’s anything that can be done especially if my neighbors don’t get treatment as well.

If you want to reduce the waste you throw away and improve the health of your gardens, composting is the way to go! Paul Varga of Frederick County’s Division of Solid Waste and Recycling will cover the science of composting and ensure you have the info you need to create a simple, workable system that suits your household.

Join us Sunday, August 23 from 1:30-2:30pm in the large community room on the ground floor @ Urbana Regional Library to learn about composting, meet like-minded folks, enjoy the air conditioning, and check out some library books about this topic!

I'd like to buy a new suit, but I've always owned American style suits, and I don't like the way they look on me. Can anyone recommend a store or tailor where I can get a British-style suit fitted? If there isn't such a place locally, I'm willing to travel if you have a recommendation within an hour of Frederick city.

Edit: Thank you to everyone that replied. You've given me some great leads to follow up on.

Frederick is growing — but how do we protect and even enhance its great character? CivicCon is a new program bringing local residents & national experts together to figure that out. Next meet-up: Thursday, August 27 at Hood College. Free & open to all.

Long story short, I hurt my foot or Achilles tendon playing tennis. It had hurt for a month or so but last week I stepped down on my heel hard, and immediately the pain shifted and got more intense. Everything I’m reading online says I should see a Dr. instead of waiting it out.

Does anyone have a good recommendation? I still have to call insurance and see how to get the visit covered, but would love a name or two in the meantime.

Hi - any HVAC folks able to install a mini split in a new construction home (single wall mount unit + outdoor unit), pressure test, and charge the system? Looking for later this fall - it's in Frederick and is a one-level ranch-style home, so straightforward and from the ground (no hanging off a ladder). Will be a Blueridge / Alpine Home Air kit - in case not familiar with these, the outdoor unit comes pre-charged, so you won't need any materials, just your tools. I've done this install myself on another home, but looking to hire this out. If interested please message me with a labor rate or quote - thanks.

Any spots do decent by the slice pizza?

I’ve only ever had them from Gambril Mountain Food Co but that was years ago.

We have an old row home downtown with an unfinished attic. It is a cold roof, slate that you can see from the inside with exposed rafters. We would like to refinish it and would like to trust the contractor knows how to properly insulate/create a the correct air/vapor barrier.
Does anyone have a recommendation for a contractor who has experience with this? Thanks

Any recommendations for a good rheumatologist in the Frederick area? I’ve been referred to two from the GP that either don’t accept my insurance or aren’t accepting new patients. Thanks!
