There are a handful of ways you can get out of prison: you can serve your time in full, you can receive a full pardon, or you can get out early on parole. In some cases, however, a judge might suspend your sentence and put you on probation instead. On October 1, 2016, the Justice [...]
In the movies, someone having a warrant out for their arrest usually means some sort of high-speed chase is coming up, or maybe a SWAT team is en route to “have you surrounded.” It’s a very dramatic ordeal. Fast-paced, stressful, and life-ruining, it’s no wonder most people live in fear of receiving one for whatever [...]
It’s been a very, very long year. We have all gone through unimaginable hardship thanks to the COVID-19 pandemic, and with the vaccines only now becoming fully accessible, we are finally starting to recover. Yes, COVID is still here. You still need to be responsible and take all precautions. But the statewide positivity rate is [...]
The United States of America is known for many things, and amongst those many things are our relatively strict drinking laws. Most other countries allow minors to consume alcohol as young as 16 with family and 18 on their own, whereas here in the states — as you know — it’s unanimously 21. That being [...]
Ah, there’s nothing quite like open waters and the salty spray of sea air on your face. As the weather warms up again, you may be hankering for that very experience — especially if you own a boat. Or, perhaps you’re just looking to rent one for a nice day out with friends and family. [...]

It’s very easy to just…not drive under the influence, and while that’s a major help (obviously) it doesn’t cover all your bases. Maryland has some pretty strict regulations and [...]
Sometimes, people can really, really, really piss you off. There are countless situations that could lead to hurt feelings and betrayal, spite, rage, etc., but in the end those factors don't really, well, factor in. What’s important is how you handle yourself. Do you count to 10? Do you ghost them — block them entirely [...]
The COVID-19 pandemic has led to countless changes in our day-to-day lives as we all adjust to social distancing guidelines. If you’ve been on Earth for the past year, this is not news. Luckily, the existence of video-chatting services like Zoom means we can all stay connected — and even see faces without masks! — [...]
We all know drunk driving is as illegal as it is dangerous, and we also all know that doesn’t mean it doesn’t happen anyways. While some laws may be stricter than others, the purpose of them is to keep the general public as safe as possible on the roads. Even though total prevention is not [...]
