'Southie urinator almost drenches two'

The headline of that particular BPDNews item really tells you all you need to know about why a local man was arrested on East Broadway in Southie yesterday evening:

When asked to explain his actions, the suspect told officers, "I had to go real bad."

Also click on the link to read how a bunch of out-of-towners learned that if Boston police are breaking up your party and telling you to clear out, "we ain't going anywhere" is not the correct reply.

And read about how the local constabulary is cracking down on Cambridge cabbies and unlicensed livery guys picking people up for fares in downtown Boston.

"we ain't going anywhere" is not the correct reply.

It's "We ain't going nowhere", right? Because of the double negative.

Yeah, just like the tourist who wants to get scrod

Det. John Rourke, Boston Grammah Squad, is on the case.
