Let's make it a contest, winner gets a weekend at Morty's!

Sounds like the first on Obama's list are Stem Cell research and environmental issues such as drilling in Utah

Thanks Bob. I can't review these Bush exec orders, way too much to read for me right now

Where are all the black people in the Obama circle? Is he just more comfortable with whites?

Valerie Jarrett is head of his transition team..that's about it so far. I heard Colin Powell is considering becoming Sec of Education.

Jarrett was born in Iran, I see. Let the floodgates open for all his Middle Eastern radical allies!

Nice to see she went to Northfield Mount Herman prep school, about 15 miles down the road from me

My dad built a lot in and around Springfield. Plus, we had season Whalers tix when the Civic Center roof went down and we had to come to games there. Remember Ciro's? Fabulous Italian joint. Ray's Grinders... Gus & Paul's..

Hartford losing the Whale to a city no bigger in size and most CERTAINLY less knowledgeable about hockey is still amongst one of the great sports travesties of all time.

I heard Bob moved out of MA because he's the only guy in New England who hates the Red Sox

Small world....We used to go to The Lido Restaurant all the time. My HS job was in the Civic Center Parking garage and my Dad worked at The Armory by Winchester Square before it closed down

Can't believe it's still open...been 30 years since I was in there..wow

I lived in Springfield for two years as a grad student at Springfield College. Of all the places I have lived, I can say that there has been no place quite like Springfield, MA...

But do they still have the immortal Mass Pike hedges display for FIC. There was something very cool about seeing that driving the pike from Springfield to Boston when I went to UMASS when Eisenhower ws president.

"And the Bershire's seem dreamlike on account of that frosting......8 miles behind me and so many more to go........"

...........sorry I know it's hokey but JT put out some great music back then.

I had a roommate in college who used to produce the news for channel 10 out in Springfield in the late 70's who gave me a board job at that station on weekends and we made that drive hundreds of times over the years. Great memories of that area.
