A city in Maryland that borders the District of Columbia. It was a "ghetto" town, marked by extreme decadence by the early nineties. After a massive reconstruction effort (which began around 1998), Silver Spring is now a prosperous town; marked with a variety of shops, restaurants, book stores, and yes, a Chipotle. It can be compared to the likes of Bethesda, but it's much cooler. Side note - Silver Spring offers much more diversity than Bethesda.

After the Lions left in 2001, nothing significant really happened there. In April 2010, it reopened but nothing has happened there yet. It is a good example of the failure of Pontiac, Michigan.

Get the Silver Medal mug."Silverware" originally meant "eating utensils made from silver." (An "eating utensil" being a fork, spoon or knife). Now, all eating utensils are called "silverware" regardless of what materials they are made of!
REAL silver eating utensils are expensive. Usually you receive a set of real silverware as a wedding gift & you use the set for special occasions.
I still don't get why stainless steel (or worse, plastic) forks, spoons & knives are called "silverware" WHEN THEY ARE NOT MADE OF SILVER!
