How's JT doing with his commute? What a way to start out on a new job., showing up late for work every day.

yesterday my girlfriend was coming back from spending the weekend in Maine. She had to drop off her friend at the airport on the way back. It took her two hours to get from Freeport, ME to within a few miles of the airport. One hour to go the remaining few miles down 93 to the airport and another hour to get from the airport to Cambridge. It probably took her 2 hours to go 10 miles . . . on a SUNDAY!

it doesn't affect me since I take the commuter rail. i think the volume of people taking it has increased but I still get a seat and sometimes I get lucky and sit next to a hottie. I'm not complaining

You'll pay for every seat you get near a hottie, such things in life are not free. Soon, some big guy in need of a shower, who falls asleep, leans on your shoulder and snores will sit near you .........

I wouldn't worry about it , it is only Steve trying to get near the hottie himself .

Rick and I both have 10 minute comutes. I don't stop at Dunkin' Donuts, but I sure hate it when those of you who do (SCOTT), form a line in the street and get in my way.

Dunkin Donuts fact.

Their corporate franchise goal is 1 store per 6000 people!!!

If I remember from the CEO, they are planning to open 15000 stores in the next 10 years.

They sell flavored water!
