Comment on: 'High school fashionistas get ready for the season'
"Don't these commenters understand that these parents work hard for their money. No hand-out, foodstamps or welfare here. Honest to goodness hard working americans. If this girl is getting good grades more »

Comment on: He%20needs%20a%20real%20job
So you have a decent relationship, a guy that treats you well, who has a steady job that he enjoys? But that's not good enough? Leave him so he can find a woman who appreciates him for who he is. Then more »

Comment on: 'The incredible shrinking office'
I like that the managers and, to some extent, the executives in this firm also became a part of the "open plan" office. Often the managers "need" offices so they can "concentrate" or "work on sensitiv more »

Comment on: 'Orange tape clears sticky MBTA situation'
hfffc, I'd rather have money thrown away than lives. People operating buses and trains have the responsibility of every (unbelted and unrestrained) passenger on that vehicle in their hands, in additio more »

Comment on: 'Orange tape clears sticky MBTA situation'
I'm glad to see that the T management is actually taking this thing very seriously. If you actually read the article, quite a few people have been fired and it appears that tips that come in are proce more »

Comment on: 'In search of the best weight loss method for diabetics and the obese'
I lost 35 pounds on WW and have switched to calorie counting. I think lots of people think of weight loss as a one time thing, or a thing you do for a while and then stop. To be successful you need to more »

Forum Post: Planning for Second Child
When we had our second, we worked out ways to have my wife stay home. It didn't happen immediately, but my wife was not happy with her workplace and the daycare tuition amounts were absolutely horrif more »

Comment on: Driving, phoning: Pick one - The Boston Globe
I concur with zenfu. Study after study has demonstrated that a person on a cell phone talking is as equally impaired as a drunk. Texting is even worse. Personal responsibility is all well and good whe more »

Comment on: Talk%20of%20improving%20Natick%20interchange
There should be a monorail down Route 9 that begins in Boston and ends in Worcester. Route 9 is doing far more than it was ever designed to do, and it really shows. more »

Comment on: Monday%20question%3A%20Blowin%26%2339%3B%20in%20the%20wind
Most cities have laws as to when power equipment can be used. I'd try and talk first, using empathy (e.g. "Work is really tough with the recession and all, and your leaf blower is keeping me up. Do yo more »

Comment on: 'Mom’
"For Mom, letting go of her college-bound son is never easy. And Dad is no help." Dad seems to have a better handle on the situation than Mom does. But Mom knows everything and Dad is just a big buffo more »

I am glad they are having this class. I would have gone for less cutesy names, though. I would have picked "snurder" and "texslaughter". When you get behind the wheel, you are in charge of a weapon th more »

Comment on: Who%20decides%20the%20news%3F
I would wager that the "top" news story yesterday was likely relating to a celebrity sneezing. Or maybe that baby getting slapped by it's mother. The lack of coverage of a huge milestone like combat t more »

Comment on: 'Chunks of concrete fall from Mass. Pike overpass'
The infrastructure, Jerry, it's crumbling.
It's going to be a bad day when that the overpass collapses under a bus load of school kids. more » -
Comment on: 'Old house, new paint job has Chatham residents all abuzz'
People seem to think that houses "way back when" were all black and white. It's just not true. Hysterical, er, historical societies seem to have their vision of what is "proper" in their head, when in more »

Comment on: 'Unknown costs, unanswered questions'
No one is going to care when there's a wind spill in Nantucket sound. Have we forgotten the dead birds, oil slicks and wholesale destruction of the Gulf of Mexico so quickly? What about $4/gallon gas more »

Wow, the negativity here is amazing. A manufacturer admits a problem, then, assigns one of their employees to the job full time and also sets the expectation of 24 hours for replacement and this is so more »

Comment on: 'Trike-riding Lexington resident, 71, leads campign for expanded bus service'
lizzo, I was not trying to single you out. I know you were not trying to advance the "anti-undesirable" argument. But I've heard the same argument in affluent town after affluent town, usually in rega more »

Comment on: Needham%20woman%20to%20receive%20presidential%20medal
To second Outbound's comment, it's painfully obvious that this wasn't even run through the most cursory of spell checking, grammar checking or proofreading. I expect more from the Globe. "Welleslley", more »
When I went to school, we had so many opportunities, and I really fear we are selling the current generation short. Sports are only the latest thing to be put on the chopping block. Art, music, shop, more »
