And the t shirts are already available, so no need to print up new ones.

This thread jumped the shark. Why do the PARF-wankers persist in defecating in the PPOT forum when they have their purpose-built sewer?

Do you mind going to my friend's house? He has a Weber, makes great beer.

For out and about, I like FourBurgers in Central Square, they use good meat from Brandt Farm (when they opened they used beef that was TWICE as good, but also twice as expensive and wasted on Cantabridgian tastebuds), but I'm not even sure if they sell beer. Same with the ice cream place down the street, awesome $3 burger. Mr. Bartley's in Harvard Square has great burgers, something like 100 versions, but no beer. John Harvard's you can get a decent burger and great, fresh beer.

But for the best of both worlds, you have to go to RF O'sullivans in Somerville.

If you are going to the Esplanade for the fireworks, make sure you are settled and timed for the F-15s flyover. They come from Cambridge and fly over the Charles and over Boston so low you can almost touch them. Easily the highlight of every July 4th.

I recommend John Harvards in Harvard Square. One of my favorite old haunts. Barring that, Boston Beer Works is pretty good too (if a little touristy).

This is still the same but it gets old after a couple of years. That's with the individual, not the OT board. You can say the same about the tech board.

He'd say:
PETERMAN: I'm afraid I have some bad news, Elaine. It appears you will not be accompanying me to Africa.

ELAINE: What? Why not?

PETERMAN: I'm afraid it's your urine, Elaine. You tested positive for opium.

ELAINE: Opium?

PETERMAN: That's right, Elaine. White lotus. Yam-yam. Shanghai Sally.

ELAINE: Ihat's impossible, I've never done a drug in my life. Dr. Strugatz must have made a mistake.

PETERMAN: Not a chance. I'm afraid I'll just have to find someone else to accompany me on my journey. The dark continent is no place for an addict, Elaine.

ELAINE: Obviously, Mr. Peterman, there's something wrong with this test. I don't take opium. Let me take another one, please? I'll call the doctor right now, I'll take a pop urine test.

PETERMAN: All right, Elaine.

ELAINE: Oh, thank you Mr. Peterman. (Drinks a glass of water) I'll be ready in three minutes.
