If you live in the Boston area, there is a good chance that you are a renter. If your building burns down, or if you are robbed (our place was many years ago before I moved in), your landlord’s homeowner’s insurance does not cover the cost of your belongings (or anything else for you, most [...]

Weekly Round Up
January 23rd, 2010 · No Comments · Bloggish, Computery, Crosspost, Food, Local, Photography, stuff
Getting into the habit of reviewing the interesting Internetty / bloggy / foody / &tc.-y stuff from the week is something I would like to establish. It gives me a chance to reflect and review all the garbage I saw all week, determine what was actually interesting and not heat-of-the-moment cool, and hopefully I can [...]

I found this pristine candy box on the ground on a side street in Cambridge, surrounded by trash. It was sad and I had to take a picture with my Lumix point-and-shoot.

I really need to get my old Flickr photostream figured out again – as this stuff doesn’t really belong here. Anyway, I grabbed this pic the other day outside of my office.

Cambridge construction – the old B-Side / Windsor Cafe
October 6th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Local
There has been a rumored beer bar (fancy, not Port-y) going in the location of the B-Side at Hampshire and Windsor Streets in E. Cambridge for a while. I drive by the construction every day on my way home from work, which has been going on for months. Today, as I drove by, they were [...]

(Adult) Saturday Morning Cartoons
October 3rd, 2009 · No Comments · Bloggish, Local
The title of this post suggests something a bit more scintillating than it is. I’m referring to my years old Saturday morning obsession with my two NPR shows on WBUR (one of Boston’s public radio stations). The 11am Car Talk and noon Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me are equivalent to the Smurfs and the Get [...]
Major issue with new Bank Of America ATMs
January 11th, 2009 · No Comments · Local, money
Have you seen the new Bank Of America ATMs? They’re awesome! When it comes to deposits, they automatically count your cash, as well as scan in your checks for you. This involves a lot less mess has the potential to be a lot more accurate. I made a couple of deposits [...]

September 25th, 2008 · No Comments · Food, Local
SO good. http://www.yelp.com/biz/7-subs-brookline#hrid:jj-QTaWj2lSlTnLmtuwbOw
If you’re ever in Coolidge Corner and want a quick bite to eat… They have a tiny table outside if you want to wait / eat, but no seating inside.

Location Love – Mendon Drive-In, new Yelp review
August 28th, 2008 · No Comments · Local, Movies
One of the best parts of the Summer is taking a trip to the drive-in. Previously a site of adolescent mischief, now it’s an oasis of entertainment and peacefulness. It has the fun of going to the movies without worrying about the idiots around you. You have your own personal space (your car), and you [...]
