Attention Boston bachelors: Jessica Simpson is out to find love, and she's looking in your direction.
I'm glad to see that my match-ups for this weekend's Colts-Pats game got posted in time for rapid e-mailers to get a crack at them. The layout of the match-ups always poses a problem for the technicians in the office, a problem of "formatting," as they say. Actually I don't say it because I don't like to use a noun as a verb. Quite exciting actually. One of the computers blew and lots of little names were flung off the screen, onto the floor, where they were seen scurrying toward freedom. Andrew came through, though, and caught them all in his butterfly net.
Heading for the Massachusetts Turnpike, a Mercedes sedan closes in on the back tire of my bicycle with an aggressive honk.

Dodging rush-hour traffic isn't easy, and with a few hours still to go on his Paul Revere Ride to Freedom tour, I'm wondering if I'd be happier straddling a horse.

There is no joy on Causeway Street, not even after a franchise-worst 18-game losing streak was finally halted Wednesday against Milwaukee at TD Banknorth Garden. Boston has fallen on hard times before -- witness the 15-win season of 1996-97 -- but even then there seemed to be a method to its madness. In 1997, it was an open secret that general manager M.L. Carr had installed himself as head coach in order to sink the team to where it could land the top pick in the draft, one Mr. Tim Duncan (hey, nobody said it worked out). In other words, Carr was trying to tank the season.

As we have expressed to Boston and state public officials and law enforcement, we acknowledge our responsibility for the unconventional marketing tactic that we authorized, and apologize to the citizens of the greater Boston area, especially the citizens of Boston, Cambridge, and Somerville and the customers of the MBTA, for any hardship they encountered last week.
