    Sending Basom Off Propah...

    OK, so Bas is heading off for good to Tahoe, for which we all hate him. He is, however, still an alright guy who we all hope will offer us EastCoasters couch space when we visit him, so we're gonna throw him a little send-off bash. His ETD is the first week of Oct., so the (tentative) plan is:

    Oct. 1 at the People's Republic (Mass. Ave between Central and Harvard) around 9?

    Hopefully we'll be celebrating a big Sox win over the twinkies from that afternoon. So get yer' fundies on, buy some assless chaps and get on down to Cambridge to send this narcoleptic, point flashing, argyle rocking, sox obsessing, tool-snob off to the west coast right style.

    I think Bas prefers PR. But alternative suggestions will be noted.

    Temporarily closed. I heard the owner is going through some rough marriage issues and doesn't know IF he plans to re-open (the sign says "Closed for rennovations"). It is a Cambridge landmark worth keeping, so I pray that this is just idle drunkard chatter...

    PS: the Irish like to spell it "plough" for Plough and Stars, not "plow"

    while your at it, you can buy Basom that lobsta dinnah you owe me from our Bode bet I won't be back for awhile.

    If I could be there, I would. Instead I'll just raise a glass from this side of the pond and wish you well, Mr. basom. It's been an honour and a privilege.
