Just added a new blog post on Neighbors for Neighbors JP

On Fox25News at 10:30P talking about Boston Public Library (official)

Flooding the councillors!!! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!

To admit authorities, however heavily furred and gowned, into our libraries and let them tell us how to read, what to read, what value to place upon what we read, is to destroy the spirit of freedom which is the breath of those sanctuaries. - Virginia Woolf -- We still live in Boston, right? Let's put our libraries on the freedom trail.

Nope, not enough.

So fitting that Scalabrini is back for G7!

Congrats to Dallas Braden, first A's no-hitter since Catfish Hunter!! If you want a perfect game, play the Rays.
