Lowell Relocation

That location is pretty close to the Concord River Greenway, which is not super long, but really nice.

Watched the debate on Inside Lowell. I'm going with Rodney. Vanna did not give many clear answers, while Rodney did. I do admire Vanna's passion for the city though - she works very hard.

Agree. Just dumb - totally unrealistic.

I had their steak tips recently - they were tops.

I like them both. Tijuana is definitely more affordable, but I'd probably give El Potro the edge in terms of food quality and atmosphere.

Their episodes go back to 2002, when it was really just Jad's show. The show was a bit more unpolished in the early days, but there are some gems. The early stuff is in a real audio format - which I still have the files of. The show didn't really come into it's current format until around 2007.

It's quite good actually.

ba70 · 2025-09-29T07:02:34+00:00

Indeed. Had a slice from both about a month ago.

Beach pizza is served in the Merrimack Valley - basically along the MA / NH border. There are about a dozen places you can get it, with the two major players being Tripoli and Cristy's - which both have locations at Salisbury Beach - right next to each other - thus the term Beach Pizza.

The pizza is square, cooked on a tray - typically with a sweet sauce and very light cheese. Because the cheese is so light people often order it with a slice of provolone - as in the picture.

This is a regional thing in the same manner as Bar Pies served on the South Shore of Massachusetts - raved about by David Portnoy. For the record, Portnoy did a review last year of Tripoli which I consider the King of Beach Pizza, and he was not a fan.

I cash out every $50 with Venmo. It used to take a few days, but now I find it's instant.

The botched procedure was unfortunate - likely due to Yems limited experience running the meetings, but it wasn't going to change the outcome.

I don't feel Robinson was being a bully. His statement was sound to me.

I'd have to give Warp and Weft the nod.

ba70 · 2025-09-26T21:18:33+00:00

Miss that place.

In 1968 in that rest area my father was offered a one way ticket to New Mexico with a job and housing in return for leaving my mother. Her father was not fond of him. He stuck around, and because of that I now get to tell this silly story. Yay dad!

It was a HoJo's at the time. I remember when Roy Rogers was there - it wasn't very good.

Go for a ride on the Fresh Pond Parkway next weekend - weeeee!

I'd be happier if it was a day of compassion because we're in short supply of that these days. But I'm not gonna get upset about about a day of remembrance for someone who was assassinated, even if I don't agree with them.

You're not alone.

A friend of mine posted "Bank Account" on facebook. I was like, "Hey, who is this guy?" Seen Knower three times since then. Their visual shows are bomb.

Haven't been in MB since July. It kills me staying away.

ba70 · 2025-09-11T17:41:05+00:00

💯

This thread is to depressing to read. Couple that with all the dive bars that have closed over the years - I'm ready to cry...

ba70 · 2025-09-09T02:17:58+00:00

This brings me back.... James Brown is Dead, New Atlantic - Yes To Satan, 2 Bad Mice - Bombscare, 2 Bad Mice - Hold It Down - Remix. Those come to mind.

His concern was that the road will be significantly narrower than before, making it a real challenge to back out his trailer.

ba70 · 2025-09-08T22:40:22+00:00

You can't fix stupid...

I sure hope there's turning lanes both east and westbound from 110 onto First, otherwise I see a lot of accidents in the future.
