WBZ provides top quality investigations

By Al on Tue, Nov 11, 2008 1:32 pm

The I-Team of WBZ is at it again, exploring the depths of trechery and corruption that run through the Bostonian bureacracies. Their most recent target: MBTA .... lunches.

I shit you not, this investigation centers around a monthly catered lunch that honestly sounds mediocre, based on their decriptions of "chicken and pasta." Am I the only one to find this an absurd news story? Sure the likes of Paris Hilton and Brittany Spears are are ridiculously lacking in any intellectual stimulae, but at least they are crazy enough that the semi-educated will recognize them as entertainment based news stories. This story, on the other hand, rests in that shadowy alcove known only to local news stations, the innards of a toilet, if you will. The MBTA is $8 Billion in debt, a catered lunch is hundreds of dollars at most, I hardly think this is the source of their financial instability. What's next, being amazed at the fact that they are *gasp* paying their employess?

It's almost like WBZ hired Sarah Palin to come up with their leads.

Almost.

Rothbury Music Festival: Post 1

By caballero on Fri, Jul 3, 2009 9:40 pm

I wish I could say I saw a couple more cities on my way to Rothbury, Michigan. We—Spencer, Mills, Maysa, Keith and myself—drove from Allston to Michigan in about 17 hours, passing through Cleveland, Detroit, Lansing and a couple other places along the way. After making it through a 20-hour bus ride in Argentina a few years ago, I've learned to appreciate all the things you see along the way during a road trip that you miss on a plane.

 


Fuck Michael Jackson

The guy could dance, hooked up with a couple of good producers, diddled little kids (allegedly, yeah right), and is now dead. Good riddance.


Dear, dear Governor Sanford

By Dargus on Thu, Jun 25, 2009 7:13 pm

When apologizing publically to your wife and constituents, here's a rough list of things you should probably avoid mentioning:

 

1. Your experience, even that which falls within your college years, of working across national borders without a work visa. This goes double for high-ranking, GOP president-hopefuls.

 

2. That you were exhausted by your own efforts to turn down federal stimulus money.
