Do I qualfy as a graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Environmental Science. I am not embarrassed nor are many others. What she makes up is hogwash. We are not thin skinned and understand people have a right to their opinions. We live in a free and open society not an echo chamber. I find it enlightening. So many times she has run with stories that turn out to be false over the years yet never retracts. Let them go to their echo chamber and we will continue on raising issues, posting links to contrary data and let the reader decide. Nothing at all wrong with debate, nothing wrong with not being a shill to a political party or belief. Lemmings gonna lem Ginx, I whole-heartedly agree. My only issue is the COVID talk is like 80%-90% of the thread. To find something other than COVID talk being discussed you sometimes have to go back 5 or 6 pages, and it makes discussing non-COVID stuff impossible because you loose track of the threads. I'm also not a fan of some other other posters from other boards coming in and ruining what's going on here, and making judgements and assumptions based on anyone voicing their opinion. I like hearing/reading both sides of the issue. I also think it's beneficial to anyone to hear what others feel, even if you personally may think it's ridiculous. There's always the chance that someone may change their minds in either direction based on what we talk about. Just imagine @Damage In Tolland kicking back a few IPA's and then suddenly decide he's going to get vaccinated based on @DotRat_Wx latest post, right? I think the solution of having a COVID discussion thread works out for everyone - nothing is censored, and it's easier to see our Iceland photos, air conditioning instructions, and Cuomo talk without 80 COVID posts getting in the way of the discussion of these other topics. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol. Wonder if Tip ever got his AC in. Lord knows he will need it this week. Dave should have just posted in the wx thread as its relevant. Let's talk Red Sox, wait been lacking PFs in game analysis lately. I wonder why. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one wants to talk about the Red Sox right now because it ain't looking good. They've been over performing all year, as many have mentioned. Look at the pitching stats, especially peripherals like WHIP and you wonder how they have done this well in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luckily they were off yesterday so they couldn’t find a way to lose. The tides have turned, the Yankees tried so many times last night to lose that game but KC said nope, you can blow 4 different save situations but we’ll still let you win. That’s some first half Red Sox stuff there. The two teams switched from finding ways to win to finding ways to lose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What also hurts is that going on a terrible two week rough streak isn’t completely uncommon (the Jays, Rays and Yanks have also had some rough patches)… it’s that those three teams have the best three records in all of MLB since the All-Star break. Timing the best records of the division rivals with a terrible two week period is no bueno. If they were playing .500 ball it would be much less noticeable.

You would't know from my response to a certain subject I can't name here. She is the only moderate running. I know her husband well from working in real estate. The others, like Wu, have mentioned these grand plans with no actual substance. She is of the Marty Walsh mold. Which is what I am loyal too. So I am on her side. Just took the Biden sticker off the car and replaced it with Essabi George. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Modfan2 Posted August 10, 2021 Share Posted August 10, 2021 I asked before but I am coming up to SNE in Sept for a quick trip with friends and their middle school aged daughter and my daughter. Staying in S ORH county the plan is to do some historical sites, Boston, and breweries. Our friends had never been to New England so I was looking for some suggestions for a day trip from S VT to S NH back into Mass. Other ideas were Mystic Seaport, Newport, Or Salem Ma area. Any suggestions for historical sites and must stop breweries(outside of Tree House) are welcomed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like it’s Whitlock tonight. He picked a great time to finally decide not to get everyone out. Every night a different player regresses, it’s incredible! That and bases loaded 2 outs and JD barrels a ball 395ft and the reason it’s not a grand slam is he hits it to the triangle in center. Perfectly placed fly out.
