Donkeys Invade Beantown
The much-hyped DNC kicks off this weekend with a bunch of parties that you can't go to, unless you're Jon Stewart or Bill Clinton or Outkast, in which case, I'd like to ask you, "Why are you reading my blog?"
They have begun to secure North Station, removing all newspaper-dispensing...uh...you know...hmmmm. What would you call those metal boxes with the newspapers in them? Anyway, they're removing those things from the lobby area of North Station and they've put up a false wall in front of the doors that lead to the FleetCenter offices. Apparently unable to find better real estate, CNN has decided to hang their huge-mungous banner on the side of the decrepit, run-down and otherwise sketchy building next to the FleetCenter. We actually played paintball inside that building before. I believe that the elevator didn't work and we had to climb seven flights of stairs or so to get to the paintball place, which may have been the only legitimate business operating inside the building...but I digress. I mentioned yesterday that my "alternate commute" would take me an extra 30 minutes each way, though I didn't factor in the huge amounts of people taking the "T" that might delay things even further. Perhaps I'll be setting the alarm for 4 a.m. on Monday. But probably not.
I would imagine that this guy's cholesterol is a little high...then again, I probably would have thought he weighed 500 pounds. Enjoy your Friday.
