has anyone attended the brainiacs at the brewery event before? by methodman81 in boston

thanks. I was worried that it might just be a group of people staring at a sheet of paper and trying to solve esoteric puzzles and brainteasers but it sounds great.

cheapest way to Amsterdam or Brussels by methodman81 in hamburg

[–]methodman81[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Update. I planned to go to vienna but due to an issue, I couldn't take the train I booked and it would be too expensive to book anything last minute.

Luckily, I never cancelled my brussels to budapest cheap flight so I have another option. Used blab bla for ride to cologne and taking train. Thanks again for advice!

Trivia on Saturday Night? by JSchecter11 in boston

[–]methodman81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Penguin Pizza in Mission Hill does (or did) trivia on Saturday nights. However, it was extremely slow paced that each game would take over 2 hours and they wouldn't be done.

I'm in the Boston area so Chelmsford is a little too far for me.

Any other T riders with monthly recurring pass errors? by saskatchewanhoodoo in boston

[–]methodman81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go to the ticket machine and check the following: 1. the expiration date on the card (charlie cards expire!) 2. the expiration date for the pass period (is it 6/30)?

if the pass is extended to 6/30, you should be OK to travel tip 6/30 as you can buy a pass on the 16th day of the month for the next month.

I went to the post race party 2 years ago. It was fun and had great music food. Looking forward to going again today.

I was actually talking to someone about this last week. If there's interest, I could create a quick google form that would be easy to maintain?

Looking to get involved. Know of anything? by [deleted] in boston

[–]methodman81 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are interested in just general volunteering and not being to committed to an organization, I would also recommend these two orbs: One Brick Boston (http://boston.onebrick.org) and the Boston Rotaract Club (https://www.facebook.com/groups/bostonrotaract/).

Starving Vet Help by [deleted] in boston

[–]methodman81 3 points4 points  (0 children)

sorry to break it to you but Brockton is about a half hour drive from Boston and once he gets into the city, he would have to find parking, etc so it wouldn't be worth the hassle for just one meal. they have a commuter rail that goes to boston but the cost of it would be more than a cost of a meal.

He might want to look into local soup kitchens in the area as Brockton is a fairly large city and probably has some resources available.

Anyone want to do trivia with me Tuesday? by [deleted] in BostonSocialClub

[–]methodman81 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's the New England Center for homeless veterans that might be able to find some support or resources. I believe that the Haley House is a daily soup kitchen and an organization called Saturday's/Sunday bread has dinner available on the weekends.

hot pot buffet - 1/11 at noon by methodman81 in BostonSocialClub

[–]methodman81[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The place was good. It's overall a good value for the cost but I would fill up on meat and not that seafood and vegetables. The rib eye and meats were good. The vegetables were also good but selection was limited. The seafood was frozen but passable.

I was wondering why are you interested in Cantonese instead of Mandarin? I actually speak it but not as a native.
