Reply to Mel King, whose 1983 mayoral campaign ushered in a new era in Boston race relations, dies at 94 by dble-u
My 79 year old father grew up in the south end, poor. He participated in some of the things Mel set up for disadvantaged kids. Mel King was a great man.

It’s fuckin delicious. I don’t even care. Lived in Philly for a bit and that’s their weird local variant. Had to give it a shot.

Reply to House Speaker Ron Mariano rejecting 'unconstitutional' plan to audit his office by new State Auditor, Diana DiZoglio by lurker_registered
Go DiZoglio! I was in favor of it before but I'd seen them both interviewed recently on OTR (On The Record) and it only increased by support for an audit. I liked her even more after the interview and only increased by lack of respect for him.

Aside from very few places, there are no requirements. You can check the place’s website if unsure.

Met him once years ago - great guy and he did so much good.
Might be time to re-read his book in honor.

I used to joke about relying on the MBTA to get to work. You're guaranteed to be either 20 mins late or 20 mins early.

I saw Grillo's Pickles in a FL supermarket and chuckled. I guess their distribution has increased.

also, DO NOT sleep on the "buffalo chicken bites" they put out in the warming thing with the rotisserie chickens. I repeat. DO NOT SLEEP ON THE BUFFALO BITES.

Can’t wait? Sorry to break it to you, but you and everyone else are waiting, and will continue to do so.

Write your legislators and the governor. Complaining here is fun but we’re not the people in charge.

MGH has discounts for Charlie Cards, ZipCar, and rental cars. Maybe Blue Bikes now too. Your workplace will most likely have discounts as well.
