What is the big rush!!! My daughter broke her hip and has a hard time
getting up off the sit and making to the door without the door hitting
her as she passes through. The train drivers are always in a rush.
What about the elderly, it takes them time to make it to the door
before it closes. It has happen on the Green Line, Orange Line and
Blue Line. Each time she would end up and tear, because it she was
hurt.
It is bad enough get on and off but to get a seat is
another problem. Years ago the driver would make an announcement to
all riders to let the elder, handicap and pregnant women have a seat.
Not anymore. The minute the riders see that a handicap or elderly
person, is getting on, the put their heads down and try not to be
noticed. May times I had to tap someone on the shoulder and ask them
to get up to give my daughter a seat.
Instead of thinking of how fast they can get the train for one station to another, stop and think of the riders.
Shame on the MBTA!!!!!!

Everywhere I look there are dust bunnies! Just when I think I've vacumed them all up, the next night I'll see one hiding out under the coffee table, or under the TV stand, or something. Drinking a beer and watching TV. Not paying me rent. I just can't keep them away. And you know as well as I do, once you see one, they start multiplying like... well, like bunnies.
Where do these things come from? Does all the dust just like to get together and party? I really don't get it. Why does all the dust have to stick together like that. Do they just come inside during the winter to get out of the cold? Are they spying on me? Or are they some sort of omen? And forget whipping out the dust buster on those puppies. Way too big. I have to get my shop vac up from the basement to take care of them. It feels like ghostbusters with their ghost catching machine.

I live in Somerville. There is a law that residents of houses must clear the sidewalk in front of the house (or is it owners of houses?). Yet, every morning on my walk to the T, I almost break my neck trying to walk down the sidewalk. It's not THAT hard to shovel a sidewalk. If you can't do it, hire someone to do it. And don't wait until it's frozen over, 3 days later. Do it while it's snowing!
Heck, I live on a corner lot with probably 100 feet of sidewalk altogether, and I still manage to get it done. I'm going to have to start wearing ice skates to the T from now on!

Isn't "Boneless Ribs" kind of an oxymoron? I thought the rib was the bone.
More importantly, what's the fun of eating ribs without bones in them? The most satisfying thing about eating ribs is the pile of picked-clean bones on your plate at the end

I love tipping for great service. It's really a good feeling, if I feel that the person in question really went above and beyond the call of duty and deserves an extra "thanks."
However, I hate having to tip for any other reason. Especially when it's one of those tips that you are expected to give someone just for getting out of bed that day and doing their job.
A few examples off the top of my head:
* Restaurants. Generally, the idea that a 15% minimum tip is a de facto requirement at a restaurant seems totally backwards to me. Of course, I tip, and I tip quite generously when deserved, because I know that servers rely on it for their income. But it is a sucky system. And the blame for this one lies squarely on the shoulders of management. After all, they are the ones who are ...

This weekend was the "official" start (what "official" decided this, I don't know) of the holiday season, and already I'm sick of the holidays. Call me Mr. Grinch. But who wouldn't be a grinch after a month of hearing cheesily-performed christmas carols over the PA Home Depot and a whole month yet to endure?
Santa was in all the malls on November 1st this year. I know retailers like to milk us for everything we've got during the holidays, but two months of it is a little ridiculous.
Here is a question: with Santa making his trip down from the north pole just in time for Halloween this year, what did he dress up as for the occasion? Did he do the sexy devil thing (irony!)? Or did he do something more topical, like the SNL *blank*-in-a-box guys or Captain Jack Sparrow? I'd really like to know. Santa, if you are watching this, weigh in with some pics! I wonder if his elves got in on the halloween action.
Ho ho ho, I'm ready for new year's now. Bring on the champagne and party hats and balloons. Then, let's bring on the spring! (yes, I know... it hasn't even snowed yet...)

This weekend, I decided that online shopping rules. 10 reasons why I hate malls, especially this time of year:
1) They smell like the entire mall has B.O.
2) Fake trees. Don't lose leaves in winter. Not normal. Confuses my circadian rhythm.
3) Too many people in an enclosed space. Feels like petri dish. Can feel diseases invading my body with every breath.
4) Parking. Would rather jump naked into pile of razor blades than compete with other holiday shoppers for parking.
5) The smell at the perfume counter in the department stores. Smells nasty. Also makes rest of mall smell more nasty when you leave store. Double whammy.
6) Indoor fountains. Smell like swimming pool, ugly. Useless.
7) Snooty department store salespeople. Get out of my face.
8) Can't shop naked without getting arrested. Stuffy mall too hot for wearing clothes. Irony.
9) Mall restaurants -- universally bad. Cheesecake Factory. Rainforest Cafe, others. Disgusting. Would rather spend money on poo than put up with those crowds and mediocre food.
10) Makes blood pressure go up. Bad for health. Shortens life. Will regret every trip to mall when on deathbed.

Call me old fashioned, but this really bugs me. Is the point of Thanksgiving to celebrate our gluttony, or to give thanks for what we have?
It would be like calling Christmas "Present Day." I'm not a religious dude but even I can see the sacrelige in that. Wait, "present day" actually means something... bad example... It's like calling Easter "Eat Your Chocolate Bunny Day"... wait, that sounds bad... ok never mind. You get my point.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone
