Yesterday (Thursday, May 31) was my first day taking the Boston’s Green Line into work. During the academic year, I have a very convenient bus that provides me with almost door to door service, but it is for academic exchange … Continue reading

The Overpass
I biked to the Green Line today from my home in MetroWest. For most of the way to the Woodland stop I ride along Route 16 feeling relatively safe. Sometimes the vehicles come a little close for comfort and I worry I might get run off the road. But I’m usually riding down the edge of the road, wearing a helmet, and not at risk of getting pushed into ongoing traffic, so I feel fairly safe. But then I get to that giant clusterf–k of roads surrounding the 95/128 overpass. In rapid succession you have Wales St., Quinobequin Road, the On and Off Ramps for the interstate, Neshobe Road, and finally Beacon Street.Every time I get there I feel like I take my life in my hands!
I obey the rules of traffic as much as possible when I commute by bike. It seems like the safest way. Today I tried to go straight through a green light while oncoming traffic was turning left. I had the right of way, yet they started and just kept going. If I wanted to get through, I would have had to insist. I started forward and whistled as loud as a could. An oncoming utility van with open windows slowed down, yelled at me, “You’re supposed to act like a car,” and then kept going. It was a nerve-racking situation. I was, in fact, behaving like a car, obeying the rules of traffic and I had the right of way. I made it through safely, but I was flustered, and a bit breathless.
My Mug Shot
I didn’t realize what evil I do when I put on that goofy bike helmet and ride down the road or trail, I swear. According Seattle Bike Blog Washington Representative Ed Orcutt argues,
“You would be giving off more CO2 if you are riding a bike than driving in a car,” he said. However, he said he had not “done any analysis” of the difference in CO2 from a person on a bike compared to the engine of a car (others have).
Wow! Just WOW! Every once in a while a public figure says something that just leaves me speechless, and this is one of them.

This is an interactive video for “Keep Your Head Up” by singer-songwriter and fellow Binghamton University alumn Andy Grammer. (I’m not sure what Grammer studied and SUNY Binghamton, but according to this bio he was there two years active in the theater program. I did my PhD there.) At various points in the video you will have an opportunity to change the scenario by selecting options. And if you do the whole thing again, you’ll get different choices.
This guy knows how to load a song with melodic hooks and they do their job. The song snagged in the netting of my muddled brain the first time I heard it and it’s been stuck there since. Usually at least one or two songs from the beginning of summer crop has such a hook, but usually it drives me crazy. That’s because I usually don’t even like the song, but the hook is effective, so it snags and won’t pull lose. And because the artists is often backed by the full marketing budget of a giant record label, the single is ubiquitous. You hear it on the radio, in the mall, in your favorite tv shows and movies, over television commercials, as a Starbucks Download of the Week, etc. The artists appears on daytime and late night talk shows, as a guest performer or mentor on reality competition shows, in cameos on episodic television, on radio talk shows, in public service announcements… So every time the song fades from memory, its planted again. I’ll find myself singing it in the car, the shower, on the street, deliberately preventing myself from learning the whole thing, annoyed at the banality of the lyrics, the derivative nature of the music, or some other aspect of the song.
Up to 21 inches expected, from Boston.com
I have never so much wanted weather forecasters to be wrong. Forecasts are for as much as 18″ of snow between what started this morning and tomorrow! This, added to the more than 60 inches we’ve already had this winter, are significantly above average, according to Boston.com:
Bay State residents have at least 60.3 reasons to be sick of the snow. After last week’s storm, a total of 60.3 inches of snow for the season had been recorded at Logan International Airport, including 38.3 in January alone.
The season total so far is more than the season average of 41.8 and the total last year of 35.7. The record is 102.8 inches, in 1995-1996. January 2011 has been Boston’s third-snowiest January and the sixth snowiest month ever, just behind March 1993.
Laurel Grill and Bar, one of my favorite places in Boston, has been sold and officially closed its doors tonight. Time to find a new watering hole, probably just wherever our favorite bartender Eryl goes!
It was a pretty impressive crowd that showed up to say good-bye tonight, especially since nobody knew it was going to happen until a day or two ago. The Facebook event page helped, but mostly I think it was word of mouth. People love that place and they love the staff. Here’s a few pictures from tonight. They’re not great, taken with my iPhone, but they do document a special night.
Tom Goss is set to release a new EP, The Politics of Love and a DVD Live at Terry’s the first week in April, and the first stop on the tour to promote the disk is in Cambridge, MA on April 6. He’ll be joined by Jeremiah Clark and special guest Stewart Lewis. It starts at 9 pm at All Asia Cuisine and Cocktail Bar and promises to be a great show!
Recently I had the opportunity to interview Tom about the new releases, and the results are below. Through a technical glitch (Ok, I admit, I forgot to set the software to detect my mic as well as Tom’s) I only have his audio, so I’ve edited it together with voice over and some really awkward edits. But it will give you a sense of Tom’s music in advance of the show. It’s pretty good stuff, so check it out. Advance tickets only $5 at www.tomgossmusic/tickets

Can someone tell me what “ticketing fees” cover? Or “processing fees”? What, precisely, are the costs involved involved in each and every ticket purchased online that warrant them? Why do we pay “convenience fees” at all? It’s not as if you have a choice between that and a less convenient option for many events. Perhaps you can purchase by phone, but there are charges for that, too.
It used to be the case that music stores and other retailers were outlets for concert ticket vendors, but I wouldn’t even know where to find one now. The only place I’m sure you can always buy tickets in person is the actual venue.
MBTA Routing
To avoid a transfer, I had to leave at Wellesley Square 12:33, take the Framingham/Worcester Line to South Station, and walk for what the MBTA estimates would have been 15 minutes to my appointment. If that’s correct, the train would get it at 1:15 pm, with a 15 minute walk, that’s 1:30. Then I suppose I could have lunch or something to kill the 2 hours before my appointment. The cost of this option, $5.25 and time in transit, 66 minutes.
The faster route, but 6 minutes, involved less walking and allowed me to leave later, but cost more. I would have once again taken the Framingham/Worcester line, but this time to Back Bay, were I would have transfered to the Orange Line, getting to my stop at 3:10 for the brief walk. This route cost $7.25.
