Much like stoners, Boston has a lot of grand ideas floating around. And much like that group of friends from high school, Boston has the tendency to start a project, and then spend an inordinate amount of time explaining why it didn’t happen.

Meanwhile, Boston, your fucking room is a mess. Just get off your ass and finish what you started.

In the mean time, the Boston Globe is getting some opinions on what to do with the physical reminders of unfinished projects. One of the ideas is a Bike Park with the Movie screen in the forgotten Filene’s building in Downtown Crossing. If there is one thing I love, it is biking and movies.

Boston, 1993: Alright guys, I’ve got this idea. For the green line. [pause] To go to fucking Medford.

Bostonians 1993: Awesome! Less people on the road, economic development for the stops along the way, convenient access to the city, and doable. Very doable. When is this happening?

Boston, 1993: Right after we make this tunnel to the airport. Should be done in ’98.

Bostonians 1993: Fantastic!
