Wouldn’t you ask for top dollar to be the governor’s fall guy?

He seems like he’s got some good experience. But this isn’t a “one person” problem. The legislature is going to have to fund both service and the large amount needed to fix the system, and I just don’t see that happening. Best of luck to Phil

Four hundred seventy thousand dollars a year base salary!
Does that strike anybody else as absolutely fucking insane?

The new ice cream shop on Salem is pretty good too. I think it’s the same owner as lulus.

"It's the best transit system in the world and that's why I'm here," Eng said at his introductory news conference at a Green Line station in Newton.
Wow way to show you're either deluded or stupid in your first press conference.

Speaking of raw ingredients I never see anyone mention Sulmona meat market owned by a family from Sulmona Italy it is a great butcher with decent prices and probably the oldest chopping block I have ever seen. They also provide meat to all of the north ends returaunts.
Polcari's Coffee is also a nice place to pick up spices and good coffee.

Never ate there, but I have had this problem with sandwiches, including slightly chewed up gums from them. Avoid sandwiches on baguette in the US.

Reply to comment by Absurd_nate in How do you ensure a subletter doesn't reneg on a signed sublease agreement? by Lt_muckety_muck
You're right, I'd missed that this was only a two-month sublet. Accepting full payment as "first and last" should be legal, but there are a bunch of rules around the collection of last month prepayment that OP probably doesn't want to deal with.

This honestly sounds sketchy AF. You took what you believe to be a school aged kids book and you want them to contact you to figure out how to get it back…hmmmm

An FYI....no idea if it would've helped in your situation, but, a feature in the app called Waze let's people report "objects on the road". It has helped me dodge all sorts of things. Might help you in the future.

Anything related to the tourist industry. There are a ton of jobs. Some places can't open the hours they want to because of labor shortages. Also, summer camps.

Define accosted? Being asked for spare change to being followed and threatened is a continuum.
