When the Boston riot police opened fire on a bunch of silent protests in 2020?

We get a cold spell like this at least a winter, it’s not that unusual.

No, the ten day forecast is based on the model projections for where high pressure and low pressure will settle, which steers precipitation and determines temperature. It’s not like it’s a guess.

And surprise, in the summer it will be more expensive to cool your house down to commute to the office.
That'll be how they kill WFH slowly but surely.

The theater is on Washington St., some great Chinatown options nearby. Check out Penang. It’s Malaysian and excellent.

What is the mechanism for locking up a criminal for life increasing crime rates?
A place like Singapore with really draconian sentencing and enforcement has pretty low crime rates.

Nordstrom online and Nordstrom Rack online are both much better than the brick and mortar stores.

If your purpose for coming is the marathon, Brookline is the only place you mention that's on the marathon route.

Downtown has some good choices if you want to splurge on dinner. If you want something more economical eat in Chinatown.
Park at the Hyatt.

Reply to comment by btronica in Does anyone know of a reasonably priced painter in Boston? We are looking for a painter for our nursery. The best quote we have had so far is $950 for ceiling, walls, baseboards and 2 doors. $950 seems like a lot for a 10x14 room. by lolotaylo
With a rule of thumb: spend more time taping and covering than painting. A lot more. Especially your first time.

That property has such a history. From an airport to a country club to a small-batch brewery/taproom for a top craft brewer.

One of the main determinants for heading into the office anymore is: Will it cost me more to take the T or to heat my house for the day? I have electric heat, so it’s pretty much always the latter.

It’s one bedroom…. Their profit margin needs to be met, plenty of work to go around. Way too much headache for no reward. I’d do it yourself.

Perfect! I will go skiing. Hopefully the cold will drive off the crowds.

You can just show up now - ordering ahead makes it a tad faster if you know what you want, but it’s not like 2020 anymore. Or even like treehouse pre-Covid.

I have family in the Midwest who have expressed jealousy that we’ve had Treehouse beer. It’s a name in beer circles
