Boston Snow Fall 2009 quips and quotes

Snow removal budgets in Worcester, Boston and probably in  New England towns and cities have exceeded the estimates  town officials entered when annual budgets were being decided.

The Metro Newspaper reported that Boston has exceeded its $12.5 million dollar snow removal plan and contractor’s budget in 2009 already.

The NECN television network added on more woe.  Complimented by Boston Globe reports that the Boston Public Schools may eliminate jobs and positions due to imposed budget cuts and other expenses, all that snow and ice we have had in Boston this year has remarkably been cleared on time and on schedule by city officials and their contract snow removal plows.

..” weather’s unpredictability leaves Boston, and all other municipalities, little choice but to plow, salt and shovel its way out”   said one official in charge of managing things in the City of Boston, reported the Metro.

But, all is not so bad when it snows in Boston.

Organizations embrace urban youth who try out their snow boarding skills.  And  when televised weather forecasters explained  tomorrow’s snowfall expectations  it hasn’t been so bad.

This is “a typical Boston winter” said a neighbor on her way with a shovel to pick away ice down at the corner.  It was thick and hard that her plan for  using her tool didn’t work that day.

I’ll bet the person who visited BostonSnowman.com on a Google Search for keyword “ski discount coupons” found something.

Yep, it was probably a good deal but I don’t know where they spent the money.

Helps poor people ( aren’t we all) cope with NSTAR’S electric bills

Help poor people ( aren’t we all right now) cope with paying for OIL as we need it.

DOES NOT have a solar energy assitance program — take off:  Every single resident in the City of Boston could benefit from a package sold at Best Buy, Walmart, or Circuit City if not a Home Depot, Lowes or Stop and Shop and Shaws supermarket, if they had a package that contained:

- a solar energy grid they could put in a window to run computers and lights in their houses

- a solar energy grid those that could afford it can be placed on a roof top to kick off NSTAR from billing them wired electricty

- a Beacon Hill politician who could identify a “green energy” company in Massachusetts that could supply such as thing at a profit, even it the price began at $350 ( which is the cost of a MicroCentre “good” computer box, or higher per need of the household

The fact is, nobody is telling anyone in Massachusetts how to do this.  T Boone Pickens is on point but he said he needs the government subsidy too to make his new deal work.

Go figure.

Why can’t we buy for $350 a solar voltaic panel system to hang out of a Boston window that will run a microwave oven, a kid’s MySpace computer, and recharge everyone’s cell phone in their house?

Tell me how and we’ll tell everybody in Boston how to do it!

October 31, 2008. Party day and..

They were  lined up at a costume retail store on Massachusetts Avenue this weekend. Heard a couple walking down the street say ” look over there, they are lined up..waiting…they are waiting to get in the store.

It was on the block where Christian Science Center is. Know the place?

Halloween 2008

Disney Radio hit Boston’s Franklin Park hard today. And the kids, boosted by their parents and grandparents, were in full swagger – SpiderMan face masks were hot, Angel wings on young adults were cool, the DJ   running the whole thing was too good starting up the music and stopping it – so he could challenge the kids to dance a bit more to his theme.

Boston has a warm day today.  Everybody was out cause it was warm. Crowds flooded Boyleston street.  The activity at South Station was normal, almost too low key? Wonder why.
