how many drunks does it take to build a tunnel?

That and it was contracted by Bechtel, the same people who are bringing you the Iraq War....

AKA 1 of very very few contractors large enough to attempt such a project.

Big enough to fuck up the handling of both.

I can't comment on the big dig, but I do watch some of those modern marvels shows on the discovery channel, and when those engineers figure out how to put up some of that shizzy, I say to myself, "That's the teets, mon."

I'll go ahead and blame the government. Since we have to blame people.

Did you see the Big Dig one? Fucking incredible; had me talking in a bad Jamaican accent for a week.

While on the surface the comment "That's the teets, mon" may seem Jamaican, I actually pronounce the words like a man who was born in Jamaica but spent most of his life in Curacao.

Subtle, yet important difference. Especially with customs.

Despite your failure to provide a cedilla, I assume that by "Curacao" you are referring to one of the three large islands of the Netherlands Antilles, the capital of which is Willemstad, and the most famous citizen currently playing in the NL East of which is Andruw Jones. Proceeding from that assumption, I say: absolutely right, sir. And I also say that, the sooner the tunnel connecting Boston to the south Caribbean is completed, the better.

Have a nice day, mon!

Unfortunately I don't have access to a cedilla, but when people get on that "Why is there no blue food?" rant I always point them to the signature liqueur of the island of Curacao. The fact that it is not a food but a beverage is, I believe, secondary.

Perhaps tertiary.
