Howard County's school board must provide balance and take the weight. In coming to the city's aid, big universities and hospitals give mayor a vote of confidence. Put another way, baby-backers are pushing the wrong kind of ribs.
Real ribs are spare ribs.
The big boys. They come from big American hogs, down near the bacon. They are cheaper than baby backs. They are heavenly in your mouth and feel primal in your hand. I say if you can't defend yourself with it, then what you are holding in your hand is not a real rib.
