They're paving a decent sized cemetery near me. I run through it all the time, but rollerskiing in a cemetery? What do you think? I'm leaning towards "no" but fresh smooth pavement is hard to resist.....
I think lost in the Tartan Army love is how hard our bar staffs have been working. I was in a local pub last night and the poor waitresses looked exhausted. I talked to one and she said she's worked 10 days straight and had been working until 2 am the night before. And we had Pride earlier this month.
Yes, hopefully they've been getting great tips from the visitors, but they really deserve a citywide celebration when this is all over.
Pubs and liquor stores are reporting busier-than-normal weekends. Scottish visitors drank a lot of beer, and businesses are preparing for the week ahead.

Lifelong Bostonian here. Just wanted to make sure you all know what a huge impact you've had on our city! Everyone is buzzing about you guys. So when I heard Roscoe McClelland’s version of the Cheers theme (brilliant!) I thought maybe we could return the favor and write a version for the Tartan Army. He’s my attempt.
Making your way to the USA took everything you got.
Getting a flight to Massachusetts surely cost a LOT!
Boston will never be the same……
Now everybody knows your NAME!
And we’re so fucking glad you came!!
We haven’t much to celebrate
Lately it’s been quite lame…..
You brought your pipes and now we know your name…
Raise a glass to Craig Ferguson who walked 3000 miles
Your kilts and songs and sing-a-longs have brought much needed smiles…
We’re so glad you came our way…..
Now everybody knows your name….
We’re so fucking glad you came…
We haven’t much to celebrate
Just more of the same.
You rolled in and now we all know your name…
I have to say this Saturday we have but one fear.
We’ve seen you drink and makes us think we might run out of beer!!!
Nae bother we've got more on the way…..
Now everybody knows your name….
We’re so fucking glad you came…
We haven’t much to celebrate
I won’t say who’s to blame…..
You made us smile and now we know your name…
Thanks all!
I'm a roller skier visiting and it looks like there's a lot of bike paths in the area. Anyone know which ones might be newly paved (past couple years) and relatively flat?
For the May Day Strike I am planning to review my 401K mutual funds and try to figure out which funds have Trump-friendly stocks. Anyone have a good way of doing this? Find out which stocks are in which funds?
