The Birthday Party Was A Big Hit

-
From Masslive.com and other on-line sources today:

NATICK, Mass. (AP) — A child's birthday party at a Chuck E. Cheese restaurant is cut short when a fight breaks out between two mothers.Natick police said the mom of the 9-year-old birthday boy apparently became enraged because the other woman's son was "hogging" an arcade game.Sgt. Paul Thompson said 38-year-old Catherine MyFormerNextDoorNeighbor and 33-year-old Tarsha SomeOtherLady, both of Boston, would be summoned into court to answer charges of simple assault and battery stemming from the scuffle.

This story was all over the internet and radio in Boston today. The mom of the 9-year-old birthday boy is my former next door neighbor from when I lived in Boston. Glad I remembered to return her cake plate.

I must say in all my trips to Boston I have yet to see a good fight! You would think I would have seen at least one dude fighting a Yankees fan!

Who knew I just needed to go to Chuckee Cheese!

I'll have to send my ex-neighbor up your way Robert. I'm sure she would like a re-match with this woman since the fight was broken up by the police.

Blondie - Kitty had her claws out. I'm sure the language was interesting if nothing else.

LOL Chewy. I don't think there was any hugging going on that night. I know her sons too. It's too bad they had to see their Mom act like that.

I can't really say that I have seen any fights either Rita. Who knew all I had to do was look next door for the Chuck E Cheese boxing champ!

Now Boarding Rows 1 Through 10. Is There Room For Your Carry On?

Here's an interesting texting typo I created last week: And if airline seats get any smaller, I can see this being an actual problem. Can you imagine? I'm sorry ma'am, but there is no way both of you can seat in one seat. You will have to purchase an additional ticket for "her". What would happen then? Would she want the window or middle seat? That's assuming she would even want to sit next to me. I mean, we are together 24/7 so she may want a little alone time, out in the open air, where she is free of any restraint. And what if she is chatty, flapping her lips the whole time? I'm not a big talker when I travel, preferring instead to bury my head in a magazine so I can take my mind off the flight and enjoy my Ativan. I imagine the conversation going as such: She:  I hate that bike seat at spin class. You have no idea what it's like. Me:  Spin class is only 50 minutes. You can handle it. I bought you padded shorts. Those weren't     ...

Commuting Tips - How to Make The Drive More Fun

Today is Saturday, which means I get a break from driving to my job in Boston. I love what I do and I honestly don't hate my commute. By the end of the week however, I can get fairly tired from the trip. So, in order to stay sharp on my drive, I've adopted the following strategy to make things more fun,interesting and bearable. Talk on the phone. Talk a lot. And don't use your blue-tooth wireless set up either. It's more challenging getting in and out of Boston if you have one hand on the wheel and one up to your ear. Send text messages. Nothing says 'I love you' like a text message sent from a friend while navigating bumper to bumper traffic on the Mass Pike. My preferred technique - look down and type, look up for a quick lane check, back down again to type. Scan the newspaper. No better time to get caught up on the days events than while you are just sitting in your car doing nothing. Take mini-naps. Once you establish a path of travel, throw on the cruise co...
