Comment on: Manhunt cost Watertown Police $250,000, chief estimates - Metro - The Boston Globe
Normally I'd be right there with you but at the time, I can't imagine any response less than what they brought. Granted, $250K is a hefty bill that needs to be very closely examined but the LEO's can' more »

Comment on: Lt. Gov. Timothy P. Murray to resign - Metro - The Boston Globe
Ha! Good call. I bet that's a question that gets completely ignored. I wonder what the value to the Commonwealth is beyond Salary? A few Crown Vics, benefits, security, on and on........ more »

Comment on: Lt. Gov. Timothy P. Murray to resign - Metro - The Boston Globe
I can't sync up the 200K against what he could possibly do for the CoC. He didn't exactly have the support of Worcester's business base when he was Mayor. I guess the good news here is that for the fo more »

Comment on: Yahoo buys blogging service Tumblr for $1.1b - Business - The Boston Globe
That's a lot of money for a site that consists primarily of coding, servers, and IPs. Then there's the parent part of me who monitors his teenagers who sees even less value in it. I hate Tumblr, Insta more »

Comment on: FBI too quiet on Quincy planes - Opinion - The Boston Globe
In my sphere that would be pretty typical of someone who knew enough about the realities of operation to bumble the answer. I'd fashion a guess that they know way more than we do. I didn't see the int more »

Comment on: Canada abuzz over purported crack video of mayor - World - The Boston Globe
Ha! Just look at the size of that dude. If he's a crack smoker, he's either brand-new at it or he's defying all convention. He's a public servant. Test him. more »

Comment on: Appraiser says Gomez did not pay bill for valuation of his Cohasset home - Metro - The Boston Globe
I agree with Neutral. It's likely that Fitzgerald sent invoices but it's suspect that the suit comes now. Will the glare of the media lights be worth the $1000? Perhaps those lights are exactly what h more »

Why, because the funeral home did the job they were hired to do? If the funeral home hires security, or an escort detail, then they should pay. It was reported by the WPD that they did not hire the po more »

Comment on: With a gun marketed to kids, tragedy strikes again - Letters - The Boston Globe
I totally agree with growler577. Having self-taught myself basic firearm useage long before I was 10 and learning gun safety techniques long after that, I made sure that my children learned the right more »

Valid question. I'm not sure what drove her to speak but if I applaud her for putting herself out there. The protests were sickening. I can only imagine what Peter Stefan's business will be like wh more »

Comment on: Kidnap suspect is father of 6-year-old, DNA test confirms - Nation - The Boston Globe
Amazing how fast they can do a rapid DNA test now. It's unforunate that the labs are so backed up. Oh, I almost forgot to add my "just tie him to a lampost in front of the house and tell the cops to l more »

Comment on: - Politics - The Boston Globe
Isn't it interesting that we can poke fun at any physical aspect of a male politician but not a female? I've embraced my folically challenged head and I go with the near shaved look. I'm starting yet more »

You can mention anything you want. However his record of service to this country should make you ashamed of hitting the send button. more »

Comment on: Gomez claimed controversial tax deduction on home - Politics - The Boston Globe
It's not that simple. He's paid his fair share and yes, taken his deductions as well. What I'm tired of is paying far more than my fair share as a transfer to people who refuse to work even a little b more »

Comment on: Red Sox slugger David Ortiz says hard work, not steroids, has him on torrid pace - Sports - The Boston Globe
Dan comes within a whisker of catching a rabbit punch from the targets of his colums as well as his fans. One day that margin will probably dissapear and then we'll have something worth reading about. more »
