Some say Billy (The Bulger brother who was President of the Senate) was the larger thief, and with is pension in excess of 250 large, he will make his brother's price tag look like chump change in a couple years. Not to mention that he collects even if we never see or hear from him (Billy) ever again.

But I don't even recognize the place anymore. Oh, right, they dug it up. And they're still trying to get it right. It's been 18 years since I left, and it's a bigger mess than ever. Are the same contractors that screwed it up still getting hired to fix it? I hated leaving Boston, but I'm glad I did. We have our entertainments out here -- the Governator, for example -- but our traffic mess is at least sane. Last time I was in Boston, I went to get onto the Tobin Bridge northbound, from Charlestown (after coming in from Logan via Chelsea, which I barely but successfully remembered how to do). Lo, and behold, I found myself a circular detour, over the bridge to Commercial, over to Leveritt Sq, to Lechemere, and back to Charlestown. I went around that mess 4 times, looking for the way out; three different masses of construction, each with their own detour, feeding into the next detour. I finally gave up, and took 99 to 16, and got to my hotel around 3am. I think the people in Charlestown wanted me to get on 95 southbound, and turn around somewhere. But the freeway entrance was one of the detours. I even bypassed that and got on somewhere else, only to find the first exit that wasn't blocked off with tunnel repairs was I think Mass Ave or somewhere around there. Came back, got fed into another detour, back into the same mess. Must be good for employment in the construction industry.

Apparently, according to this text I just got while out for an evening glide on my Segway -- now in Jail in Los Angeles.

Could this thread have gotten more hijacked?
