Tough choice on what to do on Saturday
By adamg - Thu, 01/10/2008 - 10:04am.
You could see the 2007 World Series trophy at the re-opening of the Roslindale Community Center (Washington Street and Cummins Highway in Rozzie Square, starting at 10 a.m.) or you could meet at the Alewife T stop at 3 p.m. and ride around the T with no pants on:
... Interested people who are game to give pants-free T-riding a try along with some of Boston's bravest should know that it's not illegal to walk around in public in just your underwear in Boston. ...
Or, you could be brave and do both.

I Hope...
... the men have the good taste to wear funny boxers with, like, hearts on them, and not tighty whiteys. And no granny drawers on the ladies.

so you're saying
So you're saying that the guys should cover up as much as possible, but the women shouldn't?
Yes
This is America, not Kazakhstan.
Very Niiiice
Your Mileage May Vary
LaDivina:
Yes, that is EXACTLY what I'm saying. Your preferences may differ from mine.

How about boy-cut undies on the ladies? It's January in New England; I don't think many women will be breaking out the thongs.
Translation:
All women must dress appropriately for Teh Male Gaze.
Exactly. *eyeroll*
Exactly.

As I said, your preferences may differ from mine. I'm perfectly willing to let you describe what state of dress/undress you'd like the gentlemen and ladies to be in. And whatever it may be, more power to you.
Who am I to tell you what your fantasies should be concerning half-nekkid commuters?

Kazakstan might be warmer
So I think I might wear something like this.
I own one in white. My dad used it while working on a mountain road crew years ago.
Yeah, but what about Cambridge?
Not that I expect it would be illegal there, but that is where Alewife is, isn't it? Might want to check on statutes there is all I'm saying. Heck, if they end up on a Braintree train, the could do the whole stunt without ever setting foot in Boston's city limits.
Unless ...
You define "setting foot" somewhere as "being somewhere long enough to die," which is how I can claim Ohio as a state I've visited, since I once changed planes in Cincinnati :-). And since the Red Line does go through Boston and you could, theoretically, fall out of the train at Park Street and die, therefore, you're setting foot in Boston (you would also be coming mighty close to Mel Brooks's definition of comedy if you did fall out of the train and die).
I think I need to take a break from setting up a new search engine at work now ...
Adam, I figured you of all people would know...
...that the Cincinnati airport is in Kentucky.
Oh, noes!
All these years I've been thinking I've been to Ohio and it was really Kentucky?!?
On the one hand, cool. Kentucky's a state I'm unlikely to visit anytime soon. On the other hand, I feel like I've been living a lie. Oh, my head!
But you did change planes.
If your plane just had a stop in Cincy but you stayed aboard until you got to your destination, did you really visit Ohio?
Apparently not
Kentucky, however, was a grand experience.
No worries, you're not
No worries, you're not missing much if you've missed out on Ohio. Believe me.
Looks like they won't be bringing The Bus
The Globe covers this uncovering story:
Just in case, of course, the T cops will ride herd on the bare-legged set to make sure nothing gets out of hand.
Of course it isn't!
I've seen "clothing" that is far more revealing than "underwear". There is not any real distinction that can be legislated.
