i can attest from speaking with burg he is NOTHING like the long-winded burg on xpt. you can do the post/riposte thang with him at normal to fast speed and he really doesn't go on invectives. i'm glad holly met him.



I am back in Connecticut/Western Mass....As soon as I finish straightening out the financial chaos one of my closer family members has seemingly created for herself and her only child (the main reason I am helping), I will hire a handivan for a day equipped with extra bucket seats and a Fridge and haul ass down the Turnpike to see you. Just one question: I am afraid of dark wet damp tunnels built by corrupt drunken Irish workers (hell, I dont even like Anal sex for that matter) and I have a recurring nightmare of being in an underground chunnel and the walls collapse just as I am out of MS Contin, how can I avoid the Big Dig and not add on 2-3 hours to the drive?

In answer to your question the other day about when I was last in Harvard Square for any length of time other than driving thru, the time I last remember anyway, was just before I moved to Mendocino and bought the house up there in February 2006...I was supposed to attend this year's commencement but didnt make it. Of course we cant forget the time in June of 2005 when i went down for the day to Harvard Square and met that homeless dude named "Marty" outside where the old STore 24 used to be, who seemingly had walked all the way down from Montreal and wanted me to give him 5 bucks for new shoes.

Hey, maybe I will ask Holly to come (she has only been to Boston ONCE she told me), I can BBQ for you, your wife and her if you have a decent gas grille. Afterwards, we can both show her around the Yard where we both passed out or pissed (with reverence of course) on historic landmarks like John Harvard's head.
