Almost made it a month without stirring up a space saver controversy. You just couldn't resist could you?

I could not.

The City has not declared a snow emergency. Perhaps we should give this person the benefit of the doubt and assume that the chairs are waiting for tomorrow's trash pick-up.

Trash pickup in that neighborhood is on Wednesday (source: Boston trash pickup day find-o-matic).

But, yes, there could be a reason other than getting the space savers ready for those chairs to be sitting there.

How do you guys know that this guy did not, in fact, spend their entire Sunday morning shoveling that whole block out. It looks pretty clean to me.

That's a free $20 on CraigsList, once new students start moving in.

respite for weary walkers before taking the long hike up those oh so challenging steps in the back ground. Such a kindness.

I'm pleased to report that the chairs were gone as of this morning and were not in evidence on the street being used as space savers. False alarm, apparently. Call off the dogs.

Better safe than sorry.

It's on the sidewalk.
