Someone in my building has apparently adopted a Blue Bike as a pet and stashed it inside in the first floor hallway.

My office looks out on the Red Line near Quincy. The southbound trains are going slow enough that I can see the abject boredom on the drivers faces.

Is there anyone around Boston who restores vintage maps? I've inherited a wall map from the 60's, but it has some tears and water damage and it looks like the previous owner did a bad home repair job with packing tape that made it worse, so I'd like to get it professionally restored.

Replying to Rumezi (#740,729)

Not that I have suggestions, but someone who does book restorations probably has the necessary skill set. Maybe ask the BPL who they use for book restoration/preservation.

How is it that AGAIN they cancelled the New England Auto Show? They claim, "Theres no cars available", yet every other state has been hosting auto shows regularly over the past 2 years.

Wtf is going on?
