Ok!
I once flew into Hanscom and saw a couple of F18s supposedly going to Foxboro. I don't know much about military aviation, but it seems more likely they group somewhere, refuel, brief on the mission then fly out together but don't take my word for it

Reply to comment by Caduceus1515 in Cheap good sandwich in Boston/Cambridge/Somerville/East Arlington area? by waterdrinking
That bread is unreal too. Sucks to hear prices went up, but it's still on par/a bit cheaper than other lunch options in the area.
A decently sized bowl at Grainmaker would run like $15-17 pre-pandemic.
Falafel King and his prices will continue to reign supreme.

Ditto to this! Hopefully this never becomes reality for you but if you need level 3 NICU care, there are 10 hospitals in the greater Boston area. UMass Memorial in Worcester has a Level III NICU unit.

Reply to Broker fee question by subaruforesters
Just tell them your accountant is a real paper-pusher, so you need their real estate license number to provide them. They might not even have one (which I believe is required to charge a broker's fee). If they do have one, complain to the AG's office

Went up $1 or so, but depends on the meat/combo. $16 and change for the large BBQ combo.
I used to buy the bread and take it home to make sandwiches.

I should clarify apparently the Dig is still around. I no longer live in the area. Although I do miss all the crazy shit you would find in the back of the Phoenix.

Reply to Transit experts say new MBTA general manager will 'fail' without more resources by ToadScoper
The one thing I want to note is how much room left if failure is the outcome.
Failure back in 2015 means the MBTA has declined was no longer resilient enough to stay up after the most snowiest winter in recorded history all packed into roughly a month.
By 2022, failure means the MBTA has declined to the point they can only provide weekend level headways during rush hour at best with trains moving at half the speed on average and increasing questions of safety including a person dying.
If the new MBTA general manage fails, it means the MBTA will decline even deeper in into hole. We're already at weekend headways, slow zones everywhere, and even one person dead. So what's the next level? At some point, the only thing worse that can happen - well I'm not even gonna say it out loud. But if things does get worse, there is a bottom that we can hit.
I hope this new GM succeed. Hope does not mean I expect he will. But we're approaching the point imagining what state the MBTA would be if he fails is not something we like to imagine.

I swear this kinda stuff falls into the “not illegal, so might as well add this burden!” category.

I applied to an apartment and they wanted so much information about my gf’s cat. They wanted her age, weight, picture, and even vaccination records.

Montrose Spa on Mass Ave in Cambridge between Harvard and Porter. Great prices and good quality, basically everything under $10.

I can definitely see some airframes going there before doing a flyover, but for most stuff it’s squadrons and units somewhat local to New England. Last year was an airframe each from the MA, NH, and VT ANG
