Boston Bike News
Boston’s first annual Bay State Bike Week kicked off with quite the ruckus yesterday. First Mayor Menino struggled to bike the ceremonial half-mile from City Hall Plaza to Post Office Square in very windy conditions. I’ll admit it was quite windy and a struggle at times to pedal yesterday. Plus, I’m getting over a cold […]
Sunny Pictures
Yesterday was the best day weather-wise in Boston in over a half year, with temperatures reaching up into the 80’s and sunny blue skies all around. I spent the day nearly biking around the whole city (about 40 miles in total) and took a few photos. Check them out below (you might need your sunglasses […]
Today is the 111th Day of the Year
Today is the 111th day of the year, and as such marks the year being 1/3 over in my calendar. As the day of the birth of myself occurs in the last 32/33 days of the year, I write off the totality of those days as one massive holiday. So, what have I gotten accomplished […]
Today’s Biking Path Part 2
In a follow up to yesterday’s post showing my biking path here’s another Google map showing the route I took to get to an apartment on Winter Hill to watch the Sox-Yankees and Bruins-Canadians game last night (both of the good guys won). This second leg of my trip was another 15 miles, so in […]

Quick post to show ya’ll the trip I took today. Google says it was a bit over 15 miles, but the path drawn out is not exactly the path I biked but a relatively close approximation. Destination B on the map is the Fruit Center Marketplace at 10 Bassett Street in Milton. If you’re ever […]
My New Old Wheels
After my previous hiatus, I wanted to let everyone know what I’ve been up to the past few days before I stayed out of touch for too long. This past Tuesday, I purchased a used bicycle from Bikes not Bombs in Jamaica Plain and have been enjoying the great weather we’ve been having here in […]
Look What I Got today!
Here’s my first video post, it’s about a very, very cool and awesome UPS package I got today.
My Celtics Playoff Tickets
About eight months ago I made a great decision, to buy Celtics half-season tickets. By my best estimates I went to about half of the regular season games I had tickets for but yesterday, the real reason I bought Celtics season tickets arrived in my mailbox: Yup those are my Celtics playoff tickets and nope […]
The Sun as Seen by the iPhone
So it was a very sunny day here in Boston and the sky was completely blue without any clouds. While playing with my dog outside I snapped this picture of the sun with my iPhone: Brilliant, eh? It’s amazing how that big bright exploding gob of gas fuels us, our planet and everything found on […]
The Environmentally Damaging City of Boston Recycling Program
Globalization is not a bad idea. In fact, free global trade (which the linked post argues does not currently exist) is a wonderful concept that would improve living conditions for the majority of earth’s inhabitants and is necessary for humans to survive. However, globalization creates oddities such as the below pictures. Everything looks good, right? […]
