Well, our second circus has started since the Whitey Bulger trial. The Marathon trial has started. The higher courts have given the final ruling that the trial is to stay right here in Boston. So again, security twice a day will snarl traffic up each day during morning and evening rush hour. I am so glad I am no longer part of the working public. And they are expecting it to last for four months. That means into the hat of summer. Tempers are going to be on the rise around 4:30 p.m. Mon.-Fri. For those folks who drive into Boston, let's hope the judge has the good sense to end the trial each day at 3 p.m. That way the circus will have ended and the prisoner is back in his cell. Or hold the prisoner in the courthouse jail and return him to Ft. Devens only on weekends.
And of course our local news is going to cover it from the time the prisoner puts on his underwear in the morning until he finally closes his eyes at night. Well, CNN here I come.
Why can't these events happen in the middle of Wyoming or Alaska? No one lives in the middle of Wyoming. In fact, I have my doubts that anyone lives in Wyoming. Name me one really well known celebrity that comes from Wyoming.
