I remember we once watched

I remember we once watched from the office when a car burned in the northbound lanes of the elevated Expressway (remember that?) The car pulled over, the smoke got more intense, the driver got out of the car, and *fwoom* the entire engine suddenly burst into flames.

Other than that, though, traffic seemed to be moving pretty well.

License plate looks

License plate looks salvagable. When it cools off, they can transfer it to a new car.

And DCR wants to take away lanes from Mem Drive!

DCR has in its master plan to take away a parking lane and travel lane from Memorial Drive! Just the thing to increase global warming via traffic jams when there is a Storrowing, fire, accident, Esplanade event, charity walk, Red Sox Game, or events at the Garden clogging up Storrow Drive! Perhaps DCR just doesn't want people to be able to park on Mem Drive to enjoy the riverbanks.

No horses allowed on Storrow Drive

Not even dead ones for beating purposes.

BTW, aren't you having lunch with Jim Anderson and Bill Wood today to discuss how Agenda 21 is behind the evil Green Line Extension and Boston Ave bike lanes? Better get going.
