O’Toole,Baker or Chuck Norris?
11 days to go and they have to be taking action on this out in Vegas. Who’s your boy? I have to admit O’Toole looked like Chuck Norris the other day. Just staring down criminals in the streets of Dot making them surrender out of …
This weather is a real dickhead!
A few weeks back it was like 70 degrees. Now snow? Like we didn’t get absolutely smashed enough over the past year. Blizzards, Nor’easters, hurricanes, tornadoes and floods….Al Gore better stop screwing up our weather or I’m starting an Occupy Al’s crib protest. Do you think he would be pissed if a bunch of stinky college kids were using his 4 million square foot heated pool as a bathtub? You know Tipper would be hanging out beating a drum and ripping tubes off the bong just to piss off Al. If he just switched to clean coal in his power plant we wouldn’t need skis on Halloween….a hybrid pimp mobile wouldn’t hurt either.

Rock Island Rocks!
In my quest to find the best eats around I finally paid a visit to the Rock Island Food Company last night. Judging by the chocolate chip banana muffin I smashed in 2 minutes flat….we have a potential all-star here. You can always tell if …
The Whitey Bulger movie…
Everyone seems to want this movie made. Damon and Affleck are probably the only two men in Hollywood that could pull it off. Honestly I didn’t want the movie made because I felt for the families involved but it appears the one family I know affected by this is kind of on board. As stated in the Globe article I think the key will be to depict him for exactly what he is….a heartless coward. He is not the folk hero some people still say he is. They should have gave him 2 in the lid when they busted into his pad in Santa Barbara. I say donate a portion of the movie proceeds to the families as well. Maybe a nice fund to help the kids of the families go to college…it’s the least the studios could do because the families of the victims are as much a part of this story as the coward and his crew of goons.
Dorchester is yours…and there’s an app for that…
Do you know that SeeClickFix is fast becoming the standard for reporting issues to your city government? Boston is now using it integrated with the Open311 standard. This gives you direct access to their reporting systems at City Hall. Let’s say your rolling down Adams Street and you whack a massive pothole. Or you spot some vandalizm, grafiti, traffic issues or a damaged street light for instance. Wouldn’t it be nice to let the city know about it but also hold them publicly accountable? You’re able to do that today…you can download the SeeClickFix app to your cell phone and snap a picture of the problem. You provide a short description of the issue…your GPS will Google map the vicinity of the issue and you can submit it to Boston…it will then will get routed to the proper department. You can track a resolution of the problem all the way through to completion and other Dot Rats can vote to have it fixed. Because it’s so transparent…your government has to respond in a timely fashion. This also provides folks the means to easily participate in their community. You can do it anonymously or provide contact info. If you live in a city or town that does not use this yet….call and demand that they do.

Terrell Owens a Patriot?
This man seems to think the Pats are interested and TO is a good fit. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8EdjMl7aj48] I like TO…he would add some more depth to the Patriot receiving corps. The question in do we really need him and if he’s going to have a huge …
