For Menino…

For Menino…

He was a tough, unapologetic Bostonian that loved his city. He guided Boston through two of the most dynamic decades in history. Helping it evolve with emerging technology and transforming the way Boston did business with its residents. All this while dealing with ever changing domestic security threats

So here I am, sitting at City Hospital (or Boston Medical Center for you youngins) in a wing of the hospital named for the Capo di tutti capi,(The Boss of all Bosses) Mayor Tom Menino. It’s surgery day for my mother, she’s finally having her

Mumbles on UMass Bossin…

Mumbles on UMass Bossin…

Watch our fearless leader just kill it as he breaks down how bad ass UMass Bossin is. Mumbles just spreads his vapors around like no other. Watch the guy at the end get Mumblized.

Thank god for Mumbles!!

Deciphering Menino…

Sounds like a new book huh?  Opie and Anthony spent quite some time breaking down one of his speeches. Oversized mappins? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UHutvqFLp0

Menino’s 11…

Menino’s 11…

So here we go with the pissing contest over where these new casinos will be built. For me the answer is simple…one of the Boston Harbor Islands. We had a casino on Spectacle Island years ago. You don’t have a crime problem planted in a 

Fuhget about it….it’s Columbus Day..

Fuhget about it….it’s Columbus Day..

For Italians from all over this great country today is always special. They will be celebrating when the Vikings….I mean Columbus discovered America. For me it’s normally a day to relax with a day off of work. But today I’m going to grab my bocce balls and write about the things I like that Italians brought from that boot in the Mediterranean here to the USA.

1# – Food

Italian cooking is hands down the best on the planet and my favorite to cook. What would Dorchester be without CBZ (Chicken Broccoli and Ziti) or Irish joints selling Italian food?

2# – Menino

This man is an endless source of entertainment. Howie Carr would be missing a whole segment of his show without Mumbles. Just don’t look for any of his speeches to be cast in bronze and put in a public park. Thank Woo!!

3# – The North Shore

Yup…everybody forgot to mention Columbus discovered the whole region north of the Charles River on his way back to Spain. Some of the crew decided to settle and went on to invent Santarpios and the IROC-Z. Grazie Chris!!

4# – The Sons of Italy

Italians knew of the Irish so they decided to build these function halls all over the US. The Italian flag looks very Irish after 8 pints and they capitalized. What would a Sons of Italy be without an open bar Irish Wedding on the first floor?

5# Adam Vinatieri

Yeah he’s with the friggin Colts….but Mr Clutch provided New England with 2 rings. And we don’t forget that….Ci manchi Adam !!

O’Toole can speak…make him a city counselor!

O’Toole can speak…make him a city counselor!

Listen, John O’Toole is ok in my book. He cares about Dorchester and invests his time in the community. He’s got a common sense approach to the issues. The Irish Festival rocks and he digs the Street Dogs, this guy will be a great city counselor. But
