I did not watch the Grammys last night. I am now at an age where I have no clue who half these acts are, and I’m allergic to music that doesn’t have a rhythm track or lyrics I can understand. It’s happened; I am at the “Get off my lawn!” stage of music appreciation.
Apparently, the woke, young, GenZers want Comedian Bill Burr to get off their lawn after his Grammy presenter appearance, as RedState’s Thomas LaDuke wrote. Burr and, sadly, his wife are feeling the heat.
Bill Burr called racist and his black wife Nia Renee Hill called coon after comedian makes feminist joke at 2021 Grammys.#GRAMMYs#BillBurr#cancelculturehttps://t.co/mZMtFKROaO

General Manger John Viola told concerned residents during December’s Ocean Pines Association (OPA) board meeting that improvements, notably work at Bainbridge Pond, would be done in 2021.
“For the Bainbridge area, that whole area all around the pond, it’s definitely going to help it,” Viola said. “They’re doing work with the pond that will have a big plus to that area.”
