She said that within the next two to three weeks, more network nodes will be placed on the buildings of the HSBA’s member businesses. Residents should be able to watch a Red Sox live-feed from the comfort of JFK Park, the MAC Quad, the Pit, and the Mass. Ave. corridor. Jillson has yet to receive complaints from Square business owners about the slow progress of the project. “The technology now compared to last year has changed. It?...
...anguished. Not me. We Mets fans are made of stranger stuff. We are not like the long-suffering Cubs or Red Sox nations-may they face each other in October, by the way!

...Mass. Ideal Date: That’s a tough one. I would have to say April 25. Because it’s not too hot, not too cold, all you need is a light jacket. Best way for a guy/girl to get your attention: Know the score of the Sox game. Where to find you on a Saturday night: Look for the really tall girls, then look lower. First thing you notice about a guy/girl: Confidence. Your best pick-up line: I bet I can beat you in a one-on-one. Best or worst lie you?...
