44659 Day 254

dog_park


the city has been working on putting a dog park right next to our house.  a cool idea but it has taken them about 8 months to finish it.  part of that, of course, is due to the winter, but still, when you look at it you say "that took 8 months to build?"


the mayor will be out here on saturday to open the park.  of course, any time our mayor speaks something truly unbelievable happens. for example, this week, while commemorating a statue of bobby orr, the mayor noted that orr is among the many "ionic" sports figures that Boston has produced.  and then he listed some of these athletes and their achievements, my favorite being when "varitek split the uprights."


(note that varitek is jason varitek, a catcher for the boston red sox, the captain of the team in fact, and that adam vinatieri is the patriots kicker who became rich and famous for last second, game winning field goals...you can't make this stuff up!)

I would read comics with the mayor. I'm sure he likes to.
