Reply to comment by New-Vegetable-1274 in Can anybody identify this pure white bird I saw in Watertown? by zzztak
Red squirrels are a different species than grey squirrels, but black squirrels are a gene mutation which can occur in either species. It's really fascinating. Melanism doesn't occur in humans but can be found in mammals, birds, and even lizards.

I feel pretty confident that you know I was referring to the commenter. The zippity whoever. It feels intentionally obtuse to play a game wherein you don’t know who I was referring to. I know you know it wasn’t you. The cat and mouse thing is a waste of time for some of us. Some of us see the value in straight forward and not spending our lives beating around the bush.
My apologies if you weren’t being obtuse and beating around the bush. But if you weren’t? Work on your deduction skills. This part of the conversation was unnecessary. It was obvious. Don’t bother to argue back. I’m adverse to purposeless conversation and endless meaningless minutiae. The need to be right it prove your point is lost on me unless it’s actually useful or meaningful. This is not

Great idea. Pretty much the only thing that works. DCR should do it for around the Charles River Basin. The goose shit on the bike path is brutal. You don’t wannna drink out of your water bottle after riding there.

Do they deliver? That looks awesome but their $12.15 sandwich on their website is $16.50 on any of the delivery apps lol.
It says they deliver on the site but the page is blank /shrug

> Article makes it sound like the Jeep driver pulled out of the parking lot and killed this guy.
yeah, not familiar with the area, but the article definitely SOUNDS like it was the jeep's fault. mentions the motor cycle was on the road going one direction, then the jeep came out of a parking lot and tried to go the other direction.
unless there's something not mentioned in the article like the bike running a stop sign/red light, fault looks pretty clear cut.

Honestly, one of the loveliest places on the planet. I’m continually surprised by the number of people who have not been there.

Black squirrels are commonplace in Western MA and red ones in Northeast CT.

Reply to comment by popnfrresh in Trillium brewing by popnfrresh
you can ignore most of the responses in this thread... i have 3 elementary aged kids and we have gone to many breweries in the area for lunch/dinner many times. one near us literally has a children's band come and play live music every few months, and our 5 year old tears up their dance floor.
haven't been to trillium specifically but like you say, they are usually just restaurants that brew their own beer on site. nobody is getting wasted at 5pm and fucking in the bathroom any more than any other fort point restaurant, which to be fair is mostly finance bros so actually there's a non zero chance your kids' cocaine habit gets a kick start

Reply to Boston Marathon 1st Timer by hoopdreamer1
I would not bother being there at the start. Let them settle in to their race routine and it'll be a complete zoo. From a hype standpoint, it's much much more fun and effective to have your buds at some point later on in the race when you're looking for a new wind. Lots of great spots where they should see you up until you get up until a little past Cleveland cirle where it starts to get hard to see folks in the crowd again. Not trying to say avoid the finishline, but you might get hung up logistically unless you're following them on side streets by bike.

I had RCN for many years and I've been using Astound for a few months now. It's been fine so far and I pay $30/mo including taxes and fees for 400 Mbps.
