The definition of a DotRat…

The definition of a DotRat…

I consider big George an elder statesman of the neighborhood. These are the folks who are our connection to the roots of Dorchester. They have seen it all and are wealth of information. Most of all…they make us proud to be DotRats. I think we 

Here comes Lettuce!!

Here comes Lettuce!!

So the Soulive crew has a project band they call Lettuce. This is probably one of the best party bands around. Anyone who knows about music will probably agree that soul comes from within and cannot be faked. All of these guys have soul, their roots are 

Gimme the cash and the pizza!!

Gimme the cash and the pizza!!

Ok I’m all for having fun with the delivery driver. It’s not an easy gig to deal with people so most of them tend to appreciate humor. But to start sticking them up for their cash? Not cool……so when I found out about these goons got busted down in Newport for robbing the pie man….I was happy for delivery drivers everywhere. What would life be without a Pizza and Beers delivered to your door for a few bucks?

 

 

BlackJack!!!

BlackJack!!!

So it looks like Massachusetts is well on its way to getting 3 casinos and a slot parlor. It’s about F#$%^ time! Listen, I understand there’s a crime element involved with gambling operations everywhere they reside. Guess what, there’s a crime element everywhere they don’t 

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 

Hey Ocho….have a Bruschi !!

Hey Ocho….have a Bruschi !!

So one of our football legends here in Boston Tedy Bruschi decided to tear into Ochocinco. If anyone has the pedigree to rip Ocho aside from #12 or Belichick it’s Tedy. The man has 3 rings and came back to work after suffering a stroke. Teddy is the working class type of ball player New England fans identify with and coaches love.

He’s Chuck Norris, Steven Seagal, Arnold and Sylvestor (pre wrinkly abs / steroid head) all rolled into one.

In other words Ocho….nevermind F%^& around with your fishtank headboard, leave the Tweeting for people who have nothing better to do, stop dating dolled up ghetto rats and get to WORK!!!  DO YOUR JOB!!!  Your on one of the greatest football teams ever assembled.

CHILD PLEASE!!!!

Brady shows his Howitzer!!

Brady shows his Howitzer!!

I said it….the boy has an arm. 517 yards tonight….5th all time most yards in a game in the NFL and #1 all time team record. Now keep your hands off the lady if she pisses you off, no foot fetish videos and let Giselle 

Read all about it!! Manny is a coward…

Read all about it!! Manny is a coward…

World Series titles, 20 million a year and countless other accolades….you would think life is good….right? Of course not…Manny had to be Manny…a total spaceshot steroid pumping idiot. Embarrassing himself here by raising his hands to one of the Red Sox staff (an older gent I might add) and getting shipped out to LA. Then he get’s caught twice for steroid use and decides to retire. Perhaps he didn’t like the retirement life….I mean spending time with your incredibly beautiful wife and children with the 100 + million dollars you made was too much pressure.

9/11 Reflections

9/11 Reflections

So I started my reflection process this evening….going over how life has changed since that Tuesday morning 10 years ago. Personally things have changed dramatically…but that is the natural ebb & flow of life. So I’m digging deeper to zero in on how that event
