Sneakeater Posted September 6, 2019 Share Posted September 6, 2019 Just to be clear, I never said that Boston had nothing for small children to do. All I meant was that it's a second-rate provincial deeply racist city masquerading as a culture center. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wilfrid Posted September 7, 2019 Author Share Posted September 7, 2019 Another good meal last night at Tiger Mama, somewhat pork inclined thanks to my diet. Crispy ribs followed by a giant shank with multiple condiments in little bowls (peppers, pickles, and so on). Sichuan spiced mushrooms were not too harshly spiced. The shank was really good, with a slightly sweet dry rub which was kind of non-specifically Asian. At $32 I wasn’t sure if it was a single or shareable portion. Very much the latter, and I luckily had someone to share it with. I think it was $58 a head before tip, with a bottle of rose. I was in the same neighborhood next day, so went to Sweetcheeks Q. Same owner, a few doors down the street. Brisket lunch plate was good, although they could have trimmed some of the really thick fat. Collards, excellent. Did not have a dud meal on this trip.

Chambolle Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Just to be clear, I never said that Boston had nothing for small children to do. All I meant was that it's a second-rate provincial deeply racist city masquerading as a culture center. Hey man, tell us how you REALLY feel ... what's got under your skin ... a little Boston locker room pep talk got you rattled ? Not a Culture Center, eh ? Hmmm So New York's got the lead in ... Academics ? Don't think so, my friend REAL technology breakthroughs * ? Don't think so ... who did you think is going to wind up solving society's global warming challenges ? NYers ? I seriously doubt it . You going to be there in Dec and Feb, right Sneak ? Medicine, medical research, bio-engineering, genetics, understanding the very essence of life itself and the vastness of the universe ? Don't think so And I dare you to attempt to read The Vital Question and truly understand it at its core, at its depth and all its arguments Let me be crystal clear ... all this IS culture and the breath-taking manipulation of molecules, nanoparticles and bits WILL BE what this century is known for and it will reshape the world beyond your wildest dreams ... this IS today's culture ... this IS our legacy ... You're spending to much time sitting in those halls, Sneak ... and the world is passing you by ... But if one doesn't understand any of this stuff at a deep level, Chambo fully appreciates how one easily comes to the conclusion that the Boston area is a cultural backwater And yes, they are probably mixing better cocktails in Manhattan, so I take back everything with no bitterness and submit to New York's first rate status in mixing it up and being a melting pot * ie not advertising bullshit ... although I can sorta see how chowing down on targeted spam ads may indeed be high culture and fulfill the needs of the Big Apple eaters among us ....

Wilfrid Posted September 9, 2019 Author Share Posted September 9, 2019 Of course, real live PhDs, even including some from Boston, are working on the advertising bullshit. An entire team from MIT just went in-house at a marketing company. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Wilfrid Posted September 10, 2019 Author Share Posted September 10, 2019 I don’t need a press release. 😄But I am not here to feed you tidbits. There’s a steady passage from the academy to leading sales, marketing, BPM etc companies which are building NBA solutions. If you doubt it, research it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
irnscrabblechf52 Posted September 11, 2019 Share Posted September 11, 2019 Ah. My correspondent presented it as a wine bar somehow. It’s a bar where wine drinking is encouraged—they have a natural, orange, etc focused list. I think they describe themselves as such. But unless they’ve changed direction, they emphasize tinned fish, mostly Portuguese and Spanish. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
