For those of us who don't know why this pole is famous, can you clue us in?

There's an artful middle finger in New Hampshire that's now an "ART" installation so the local town who didn't let the man open a business there, can't remove it.

Those are really lovely. I redo a ton of mid-century homes with the furniture I find and I collect oddities from the atomic era, these tribal style rugs is how I offset those older pieces to make the room feel more modern.

I say you got better than fair value. They're beautiful and to someone, those will sell for more than you bought them for.

Nice work!

Why are so many in line at this spot? Is there a free drink special? What makes this bar something more special than the other billion Boston bars?

How's the food here?

Size matters when asking about bags. I use a 55L Osprey for travel to Switzerland that is just above the limit for size on a plane but I force it to work. I love it because I can have options for a longer trip and I e got backpacking options.

That same bag is a nightmare if it goes a bit too heavy. It becomes unwieldy and causes bruising due to my ability to overload it with huge quantities of weight . So be careful on what you ask for, you may have a perfect bag for different uses but you can use them in bad ways which makes usage suffer.

Lessons learned for myself. Go smaller, pack lighter=happier me.

You are 100% correct. Birra tacos aren't noticibly different in taste profiles. People don't order them enough due to expense or messiness or extra cost and then the meat sits around and there's nothing I've really tasted which made any big impact that made them better IMHO.

Al pastor is so tasty!

As a former bank auditor, St Mary's is a bank to be proud of . Most people don't realize how hard it is to try to do it the right way while treating people well.

I don't have a St Mary's near my neighborhood, but if you e got one near you, you should be their customer. They live to serve their clients, employees, and community.

They should pay me for being a hype man, but in the end, documented business processes and good value and due diligence on behalf of clients are the greatest gifts that good business still offers us.

I have also heard they treat their employees like real humans. (I don't know anyone personally there, so I cannot verify that).
