• Better Than the Icing on the Cake

  
  Harrumph! — Authority: 115
  There can be only one six. The battle of the pies continues and as of this Thanksgiving, includes another generation.  Our youngest, at 16, joined in yesterday with his own. Isaac produced a blueberry pie — filling and crust, with the vents spelling PIE . As always, our Southern-rooted guests and family ...

• Call Me Squeaky

  
  Harrumph! — Authority: 115
  At the West Roxbury YMCA today, one of the desk staff sought me to say excitedly that a Ribbon Rack ® was on the way. He said the Y had applied to the city for a bike rack in the parking lot and had heard back that there’s one coming in the spring when the weather warms enough to make it practical to install. I ...

• Rip ‘em Up

  
  Harrumph! — Authority: 115
  Tear ‘em up. Cocks give ‘em hell. That was the common cheer when I was at University of South Carolina football games. I heard the cheer exhorting the team, the Gamecocks, many times. It wasn’t so much that I liked football. Rather the swim team, of which I was a member, had rights to sell programs and funnel ...

I had been cocky about my ability to outwit the witless and impatient. Numerous drivers in Boston and Cambridge have swerved to ...

  We people could used more RAM.  In common public activities — for this post, think walking, cycling and driving — there are a ton of data to analyze every second. Yet the human norm is to limit the input, to be overly selective in using our brains. A fatal example occurred in Boston when an 84-year-old walked ...

• Crank Returns

  
  Harrumph! — Authority: 115
  My late mother does manifest through me. As in the tiny woman cowing the gigantic manager , I would shamelessly embarrass my children in pursuit of efficiency and clear thinking. Fortunately for them, none of my boys was at the Y yesterday to hear me. My mom may be dead, but the world is not missing a crank. I ...

• Too old or old enough?

  
  Harrumph! — Authority: 115
  So Tom Menino is 66. That’s a famous highway. It’s also a typical obituary number. With credit to his challengers and critics, few have made much of his age in this Boston mayoral re-election bid. To be sure his four terms and 16 plus years in office, the longest serving ever, have made the debates and campaign ...
