I’m not a big fan of doing the touristy thing while traveling, but I do like to take in the local “culture” and see what living there would be like.
In that spirit I’ve now experienced:
- Almost dying several times driving around in the street
- Almost dying driving on the freeway
- Seeing my life flash before my eyes driving in the crazy blender rotaries (roundabouts) they have here *luckily I was only a passenger during all of this*
- A properly made steak and cheese sub (very good)
- A properly made Boston pizza
- A live Rocky Horror Halloween show (these are pretty similar wherever you go though)
- Various interesting music performances and dance clubs (including the one from the opening scene of Blade
)
- Wandering around Harvard, Harvard Square, and MIT at night (mixed with training of course)
- Watching a Patriots game on a 60 billion inch HDTV
- Several amazing sunrises and sunsets of Boston’s skyline from the vantage point of various rooftops, beaches, and bridges
The only other things I really want to do is check out the Science Museum (CSI exhibit) and film a bunch of parkour stuff.

Heck yes to Rocky!!!!! I’ve seen the Halloween version (and f*** with your character night….and switch night…and toast night…) in Portland at the Clinton Street Theatre, but Boston would be so awesome. And roteries are freaking awesome, don’t diss them

Hey, man, Boston driving is only bad if you’re a pansy like Tyson.
It’s like a roller coaster. You just close your eyes and hang on. Unless you’re driving. Driving with your eyes closed is bad.
