For those who have yet to visit this excellent place, let me give you the basic run down:
1. Boston is a gorgeous, friendly city, with all the perks of being a city but none of the pushiness.
2. You want pizza? Go to Regina's pizzeria in the North End (our "little Italy"). You want Irish? Head to Southie. We have a Chinatown. You can't walk a block in Boston without running into just about every race, creed, and planet of origin.
A poet laureate from Boston, Yoda is.
3. We have the best sports team. Period.
As I write this, the Red Sox are going into battle against the St. Louis Cardinals. To put that in perspective...
Boston is the very foundation of this nation, the home of liberty, the first major seaport, the first to march to the industrial revolution, the bringer-forth of Presidents and Patriots alike.
St. Louis has trollies.
Ding ding ding went the... ya know what? This place sucks.
I mean, sure, I'm certain they're perfectly nice trollies. Really.
The "M" is for "Meh."
If only the World Series took into account the relative worth of the cities contributing...
Go Red Sox!
*It should be taken into account that the author's fiancée disagrees with clause 3, and instead believes that Pittsburgh has the greatest sports teams ever. To the dog house I go.
