Dear Lola, Oh, Lola, how could you? You incurred the wrath of Gawker and left local bloggers puzzled as to what you were about, you coy little vixen! You claim to be the Boston Globe's new fashion magazine. You claim to be Boston's newest best friend. You resemble Louise Brooks, but shrunk down into the size of the old TV Guide.

We’ve been digging out all day. After we held our ground on the second floor yesterday only to find that our exterior door was all but snowed shut when it was time to go to work this morning. A bit of shoveling later we’re turning to warm hearts not cold snow. There's a good week ahead of us, temperatures are due to rise, indoors and out. Dinner reservations are hard to come by for tomorrow,......

On Wednesday nights in Allston at Common Ground, friends of Bostonist host iPod DJ Night. Music starts and sign-ups start around 9, and people get 15-20 minutes to play whatever they want from their mp3 players (it's not exclusively iPod so bring your iRiver). Common Ground is at 85 Harvard Ave. This party was written up in the Globe and Herald last week, and is slowly growing to a decent size. Nights like this are......
