• Posted Museums on Us BofA to Bostonist
  We weren't sure when Bank of America merged with Fleet and started splashing their patriotic colors about town. Green = Money / Money = Fleet...why, the concept was as visually obvious as pink+orange = Dunkin' Donuts. How would we react to this new (financial) suitor...play coy? Be gullibly trustworthy? Bostonist needed reassurance. We needed coddling, not to mention...free stuff. So during May, BofA is taking us out for an afternoon museum date, and we're...
• Posted St. Patty's Day Hangover Cure #1: Keep Drinking through Saturday Night to Bostonist
  Since limited edition t-shirts are "so hot right now", Bostonist can think of nothing better to take our minds off that post-St. Patty's Day hangover than checking out the Legends of Style: ICONS event at the BCA this Saturday, March 18 from 8 pm - 1 am.

"Ah,...

Some of the restaurants have declared the week so successful that they're extending the $20.06 lunch/$30.06 dinner pricing structure for another week. A complete list of eateries participating in the extension here. Remember: prices are per person, for a...
• Posted Holy Leather (District) Batman! to Bostonist
  At lunch today, this Bostonist found herself with a veritable hot Man-wich, that is, sandwiched between three attractive young professional males (two front/one behind) in the deli line. This caused us to wonder: is the Leather District really "the next Soho" of Boston? Bostonist has noticed at least three major condo developments going up within as many blocks of our place of employment — in fact, Lincoln Plaza, directly across the street, is already...
