I look at it this way: If the herring is strong enough to chop down the mightiest tree in Boston, it will probably get confiscated by the TSA.

would that confirm that TSA is e-fish-ent or de-fish-ent?

Newbie here. I'll join for my first Boston Do. Met CDKing on one of the $72 BOS-DFW
round trips last year.

Thursday evening classes this fall, dammit!

I'm tentatively scheduled for Monday evenings in the spring. I don't recall a Boston Do that was on a Monday. Maybe the next one will work out!

I am sorry that you were unable to come up with a more creative name for this FlyerTalk event.

How was that?

Signed,

I think I was at the first one...?!?

Meh, close enough.

I seem to remember that you were, as there was quite the gathering of Mods in Boston that night.

What — not good enough?!?

I worked very hard to come up with that one apology; and composing it takes a lot of work. I had to post it in one whole thread — and do not get me started on all of the work involved in not having to place a telephone call.

That’s not easy, ya know.

I take it as a personal insult that you criticize my apology. Thus, I’m going on strike. There will be no more criticizing creative names for Boston Dos until I get the appropriate apology from Efrem, who looks just like the Dovster — I have photographic proof of that claim — as I blame everything on those twin sons of different mothers.

Anyway, this was the event which I attended — I cannot tell you how much work it took to find it; let alone attend that event — which arguably had an even more boring name that the one for this month...

Ah - yes. I (mostly) remember that one!

Thankfully, all the others I've attended have been much tamer.

I would apologize for looking like Dovster, but I think he should apologize for looking like me. I've looked like me for longer than he's looked like him, though we've both looked like we look for longer than most other people have looked like anything.

Yeah, well I'm going on strike from going on strike. At this point, I don't even remember what I was going on strike for.

I don't think Efrem looks anything like Dovster, though. Efrem's a good-looking guy.

hey a heads up...there is a free country (Eli Young Band) concert in city hall plaza at 6:30pm which is across the street from Kinsdale. It may be a little crazy getting there and leaving from that area

Thanks! Everyone give yourself a bit of extra time!

Wait, a free country music concert? You mean people would pay for one?
