"Yeah, man, oh, we're going to have some fun with this one, man, and I don't know where it's gonna take us, but it's a long way from Boston, man, here we go."

Headed up to Massachusetts tomorrow, first to see my sister graduate from Smith College, then to hang out with pals in Boston. Residents of the area with knowledge of cool events over the next week, feel free to e-mail. Between Jefferson's excellent music collection and the pleasures of Mass Ave used record stores, its likely I'll be inspired to post here sometime during the trip.

Claire had a poster of Joey McIntyre on her door for two years and denied it for five. Congratulations, sis! I couldn't be prouder.

Relive the NKOTB dynasty here.
