What people live in the garage?
Also skimming the article before commenting might be helpful...
"The MBTA garage opened in 2014 across the street from the Beverly Depot and was designed to support up to four levels of development on top of it. "

Providence RI to South Station Boston is 1 hr 15 minutes or so. There is ZERO chance of making that drive in less than that during rush hours. Plus when on the commuter rail you can do other things besides driving such as reading a book, getting another hour sleep, needlepoint, play games on your phone, watch a movie, practice the bagpipes (ok don't do that one), etc.

Reply to comment by new_Australis in Pre-School teacher at a public school keeps disciplining out son for saying "oh my god" by new_Australis
Just teach him to say "Fucking Ass!" for a while then offer the teacher the option to go back to "Oh My God".
But on a serious note, if the teacher is making your son upset and sad, you need to talk to the principal about it. Explain you are working with your son to break the habit and the teacher's behavior towards your sons needs to be more positive (reminding him of other phrases to use rather than scolding him).
In the meantime, you the parents might want to make an effort to try a new phrase. If your son stops hearing you guys say it, it will be easier for him to use something else as well.

Reply to Is open fire allowed out of the season in some cases aside from cooking? by squirrelacronparty

"Outdoor cooking is allowed year-round in all communities and is not subject to open burning limits."
and
"Fire pits have become popular in recent years. But unless they are being used for cooking, they are subject to the MassDEP open burning regulation. If you do use a fire pit for cooking, the fire must be:
Kept to a reasonable size
Located away from combustible materials
Contained in a non-flammable enclosure, and
Tended by someone who is 18 years of age or older. "

"Some cities and towns regulate, limit or prohibit the use of chimineas, fire pits and outdoor fireplaces. To find out if your community has specific requirements, contact your local fire department."

Reply to comment by crake in Exonerees in Mass. state drug lab scandal want their seized property and money back by ak47workaccnt
Your OJ example was the result of a civil case brought to court and a judgement (by an actual judge) rendered. This is not the same thing as having your property seized and then the government just deciding on their own to not return it even though you were not guilty (legally speaking) of any crime. As there was no civil case that allowed the seized assets to be kept by the government, they should be returned. If the government doesn't want to, then they need a court judgement stating they can keep it.

You were approaching a yield sign and as the second car in line your only job was to maintain a safe distance from car #1 who might yield at a yield sign.

Knocking the price down on a ticket has zero effect on points on your driving record. A ticket is a ticket and is not in any way "weighted" but how the ticket cost at the time.

Absolutely. The food is good (not great) but you go for the experience and now you go to fit in as many final memorials before it goes away (in its current form).

>There’s no reason that we shouldn’t have a regular commuter rail form Boston to Hyannis.
While only seasonal the CapeFLYER runs from Boston to Hyannis and back over that bridge, so it isn't just "trash". But the argument could be made to increase the number of trains and extend to all year service. Unfortunately the MBTA can barely keep the Orange and Red lines running, so...

Reply to Monthly Electricity Bill Is Killing Me by haitiandev
How do you not qualify for Mass Save if you are a National Grid electrical service customer? You are paying into the program. It is the "Energy Efficiency Chg" under the delivery services portion of your bill. If you see that charge, then you should qualify for the Mass Save program and services.
