Beer

[menotyou]

How else do you get around Boston, if you are drinking? Are you advocating drinking and driving, Dave??? I thought being a professional driver, you would know better. Just sayin'.........

Have you ever been to Boston? It is hard enough to drive there sober.

My only point was when you go to Boston you can park your car at the hotel and not need it until you are ready to leave.

Moreluck, I give you credit, you have much more class, and you really don't need to have arguments with that "resident know-it-all" !

How about with the "non-resident know it all" from the North?

Klein, you lost what little credibility you had when you posted the Rape bumper sticker. Rape is a crime of violence and certainly nothing to joke about.

He had any to start with?

I like to give people the benefit of the doubt. He has removed all doubt and has become merely a nuisance.

The Kingston Trio sang about the MTA.

It's actually the MBTA commuter rail. "T" is just short for MBTA as the stops are marked with the big T logo. (as far as I've known, anyway)
I rarely go into Boston much anymore, maybe once a week, but it's not a bad nightlife town. Plenty of transit and places to stay, where you don't need worry about the driving part if you're having drinks on the town.

To be fair, when the song was written the subway system was called the MTA. They must have added the Boston part at a later date.

You can thank wikipedia. The song was written in 1949--I wasn't even thought of then.

I give you props on your patience. He wore out his welcome with me long ago.

You lost all your respect, and not just from me, either !
I seen far worse "bumper stickers" or Cartoons opposing Obama, waving the Nazi Flag or wearing it. And other worse ones.
You want to go back and bad rep them, too, and while you're at it, bad rep meno for sending out too many "likes" ?

That "resident'know-it all" self giving title suits you very well !

Nope. Never been. Would like to someday. I watch Phantom Gourmet sometimes. I would love to go to their block party. I was just pickin', Dave. Jeez.

The thread was about drinking beer in Boston. I added that the T makes it very easy to get around Boston. You then added that some group from the 50's sang a song about the MTA. What does that have to do with drinking beer and getting around Boston?

Klein, you lost what little credibility you had when you posted the Rape bumper sticker. Rape is a crime of violence and certainly nothing to joke about.

He did ​WHAT??

You brought up getting around Boston easily & the train......my post was about getting around Boston on a train..................if you don't see the connection, you are blind!

 

[moreluck]

Gee, I wonder if there are any songs about B.A.R.T. ???? Bay Area Rapid Transit............I'll bet they have beer too....see the relevance?

Metrolink?
Music City Star?
LIRR?
MARC?

I'll bet they have beer too.....but not chowdah!! Yay Boston!! Lobstah Bisque!

I'll bet there are a million stories..............You really branched out a promising topic here on B.C., Dave.

Oh, no, an unemployed Canadian with few prospects beyond government handouts doesn't respect me---how will I ever go on living?

It's in the Herman Cain thread. Post #1342.

But Dave, calling the Kingston Trio some group from the 50s is like calling the Sox some baseball team out east.

I still have respect for you Dave, for what that's worth.

Thanks, I think. I saw it. What I'd like to say wouldn't pass the mods or language sensors.
