Newton vs. Quincy

The scene: Yesterday in Newton, stopped at a red light on my lunch break because the guy in front of me was on his cell phone and didn't notice the light go from red to green...and eventually back to red again despite my and other people's honking.

Me: "What the F*CK!!!"
Woman walking past my car with a stroller: "HEY WATCH YOUR MOUTH!"

*************
The scene: Yesterday evening in Quincy on my way home, stopping shortly as a small child on a bike comes careening past my car on his bike, his mother following after.

Me: Good Lord!
Mother on the sidewalk: "BILLY YOU'RE GONNA GET HIT BY A CAR IF YOU DON'T GET OUT OF THE FUCKIN' STREET!"

Ah Quincy. We belong together.

Ahhh this make me really miss Quincy "by the sea"...My fav was the jacked up couple would would rotate their street fights around the center. There was nothing like sipping a cocktail at the old X&O while they through out public F bombs out side the old Fleet...
