Spotted Around the Commonwealth --
* a U.S. Navy pop-up recruiting station set up at Government Center in Boston. They had parked two cool-looking trucks next to a blue and purple tent emblazoned with cool macho-looking navy guys standing at attention. Cool rappish-esque music was blaring from loud speakers but incongruent to the scene were the rather bored-looking recruiters lulling behind the folding tables.
*workers erecting the new Elizabeth Montgomery 'Bewitched' statue in the center of Salem. Only her backside was visible but it was clear she was sitting on a broom. Oh the Puritans must be turning in their graves...
* the ubiquitous new women's fashion craze of wearing jersey wrap tops that come right below the boobs and which get tied in a knot over a longer tank top worn underneath. All the better to accentuate the rolls of fat that are invariably to be found in between the chest and the hips.
* seven protesters arrested in Cambridge at the army's celebration of its 230th anniversary which in actuality turned into a blatant recruitment effort.
