Magoo sez

Magoo was thinking of taking Magoo-pooch there for a late night stroll. Magoo may reconsider. Magoo.

The staties disperse large angry crowds by forcing them into JFK station. Now either the crowd turned peaceful as they entered the station or fights broke out inside the station and on the trains. It will be interesting to see if the MBTA reports that there no fights or problems at the station which would lead one to believe the staties show of force was an overreaction.

Probably not....

It's mostly YUPPIE's using those apps as they charge a decent premium. Also there an LQ right next to Moakley.

On a side note, any word on the city allowing festivals this year? With all the pent up tension in the city plus BPDs refusal to uphold the no public drinking rules, sounds like a disaster waiting to happen.

Aren't all pandemic rules over now

other than those federally required (e.g. masks on the MBTA)? The state of emergency ended on June 15. North End festivals are definitely going to happen. If they are happening, then probably the Caribbean Carnival will, too, as it's around the same time in August.
