Phil Collins has been in the HOF since 2010, but as a member of Genesis.

Is this data boardings only? I imagine disembarkations are harder to calculate. Bennett/Eliot serves as a drop-off only stop for 7 routes that otherwise terminate in the lower busway, and I’ve noticed most drivers choose to open their doors on Mt. Auburn Street at the crosswalk, snowbanks or not.

This guy from Massport asked for my autograph so I signed it: Dear Davey, thank’s for the support.

I won’t finish that line, but working at Logan I’m chopped liver inconvenienced by the capital projects surrounding me.

Patrick Pass. Can’t say much good about him lately but Pass is such a good football name.

I belive it would be Deutsches BΓ‘nh.

From Camden to East Rutherford, people from New Jersey can spell. But it also reminds me of a chant in high school marching band. β€œTrombones” has as many letters as β€œMarauders” so naturally our section did our own thing.

Or one quarter of a Darrin O’Brien collection.

Wanya Morris of the Kansas City Chiefs was named after the singer from Boyz II Men. Injured on the opening drive, he’s down on bended knee.

Reminds me of the 2003 season when the Bills and Patriots traded 31-0 wins in week 1 and week 17.

I’m reminded of when I walked past this bag put out for curbside recycling in January 2018, promoting circus shows ahead of October 1987.

That Yankee rookie pitcher whose name somehow got past the censors reminds me of this character whose name also got past the censors. Anyway, Cam Schlittler is off to Mr. Schidtler’s home country.

What's the difference between Staples and Office Depot?

Office Depot doesn't cause flat tires.

Found these staples yesterday, down the road from where I got a flat four weeks earlier.

Pittsburgh took the first down victory knee, and the CBS graphics department somehow flashed a "2-pt attempt" on the screen.

@nflscorigami.bsky.social The algorithm is wrong. If the Cowboys and Giants trade field goals, a 40-40 Scorigami is possible.

I once bought tomatoes that I thought were Canadian because the distrubutor was in Leamington. Only when I read the bottom of the package did I realize they were actually Mexican.

Hopefully you mean β€œnext to” and not β€œon” the cycletrack. Overgrowth. Overgrowth of trees and plants into the lane can be an issue at times.

Too often it seems like usually three weeks between the milling and the paving. Glad to know you’re promising a single week.

Amen to that, especially when a single flight cancellation adds to the burden and we’re looking way past Worcester.

Nice, but I’d rather have one train daily equipped with a baggage car. They used to have it on the overnight 66/67.

I suppose it’s β€œeasy” to inconvenience those of us who commute outside of rush hour. The MBTA has lately been running its wire inspection car between 10am and noon, and the subsequent delays stretch all the way into third-rail territory with trains often standing by at Bowdoin.

And I’ve even waited 20 min at night, then left a voicemail to 311. It’s an MUTCD compliance matter not to give a green bike signal when there’s any other conflict, even though concurrent pedestrian signals are perfectly ok. Obvious solution is to delay the right arrow when cars have full green.

Criticism of the 9am opening time when nearly every other TJ’s opens at 8.

If they ever ticket, it should be two tickets – one for each side of the two-way cycletrack blocked, one each placed under the left and right windshield wipers.

But when will outfront advertising add sound?

Left-Handed trombones are extremely rare but not entirely unheard of. Is this real, or is the video inverted?

Has anybody ever noticed how Frolic by Luciano Michelini (1974) seems similar to The Dick Van Dyke Show theme by Earle Hagen (1961)?

If you don't curb your enthusiasm, you might trip over an ottoman. And don't forget to keep your fingers crossed.

As a passholder, I’ll gladly step off at the Seaport Hotel and run downstairs through the gates at WTC. When I was in better shape before all the buildings went up and sidewalks weren’t lost to construction, I’d run all the way down Congress Street to South Station and beat the bus by two minutes.
