@angem25 @MarcHurBoston @ericfisher @davidjohngrady Not in my living room, with other Sox fans around: for me, it’s about the food. My speed is the bar at Newbridge Cafe with a plate of the Country Style Ribs. Their wine list can have some gems.

Maybe Floramo’s with a Mixed Grill and Keno. High 5s all around for every Sox run.

All veterans signed a blank check to their fellow Americans, payable with their lives, their health and their livelihoods.

Today, we honor the sacrifice of service members who gave their lives in the name of our country.
