But I *don't* like this giant baseball logo. I like The Sox, but I prefer to watch the 60-second recap on the eleven o'clock news. (Talk about watching paint dry...well I guess nobody was, but if they were, that's the analogy I would use for watching these long games.)

How off topic is on topic

In my book, anything that's not being discussed is OT, which for this thread, is on topic.

Hey Bill, I used to live in Boston in the back bay area and in Brookline back in the early 90's while I was in college. Where do you live?

There was this little hole in the wall place on Mass ave that made great steak 'n cheese subs, mmmm

What's OT

Wouldn't that be 'Off topic'?

Or wait....maybe it means over time, hmmm

If everything is off topic, then nothing is off topic.

If nothing is off topic, then everything is on topic.

If everything is on topic, then nothing is off topic.

I think that means this thread is defying the natural order of the universe!

To be clear:

OT is off topic.
On topic is just that - on topic; it doesn't enjoy acronymical status.

To further clarify:
If we're OT, we're on topic, even though the acronym doesn't stand for it.

Taking my headache with me and going home now.
I love you guys. Good night!

North of Boston.

I used to live in the back bay when I went to school there for a year (twenty years earlier, I'm afraid). There used to be a great sub shop named Charlie's on Boylston, just a few doors away from the main entrance to Berklee.

But when I got out of school I lived for a number of years in Arlington near the Cambridge-Somerville line. Then I lived in Vermont, Florida, and California before returning to Massachusetts in the nineties.

Damn, I told my graphic designer it would be too hard to see.

But you know those "creative" types when it comes to anything practical...

About 40 miles north, on the coast. Hint: a neighboring city has been in the news a lot lately regarding a "pregnancy pact" at the high school.

Can't say I recall Charlie's maybe it wasn't there when I was. There was another hole in the wall called little stevie's with great pizza a few doors down from Berklee. Ahh the good ole days
