Growing up in Dorchester, my dad got his hair cut by Leonard Nimoy’s father in Mattapan.

This book by Adam Nimoy is an in-depth look at his famous father, the characters he played, and how his family life was affected by 50+ years of celebrity. Great book!

“Carpetbaggers.” More divisive claptrap in the Herald.

This Norwood-based blowhard plays the “born and raised” card, while his profile on X presents himself as a “Believer that we all need to be talking to each other and shut out the hate.”

This is the president of the United States taking a break from gold-and-marble interior renovations to say he’ll defy a court order to feed hungry Americans.

Nero would be proud.

Frank is exactly the sort of person who sees an empty chair on stage and just assumes he is needed to run the show.
Frank Baker thought it was perfectly appropriate to take a seat at a recent Public Safety Forum.

At least one elected official onstage thought enabling and promoting his candidate was acceptable behavior.

👉🏼 This is yet another example of Old Boston entitlement. “We do what we want with impunity.”

An MBTA Ashmont Radford Lane re-entry ticket. The Radford Lane entrance to Ashmont connects directly to the inbound platform. So if you want to leave an outbound train via that exit, you grab this ticket when you entered, and then they will let you through the fare gate to get to this exit.

Here are three of the books I use at home before digging into the research archives at the Central Library at Copley Square—the first public library in the entire nation.

“Only The Ball Was White”
“Voices From The Great Black Baseball Leagues”
“The Biographical Encyclopedia Of The Negro Leagues”
