Boston, thy love ye

I love my chosen city, Boston.

It was reaffirmed today:

Boston has history at seemingly every turn.

Boston has multiculturalism.

Boston has some great higher academic institutions.

Boston has a kicking sports scene.

Boston is big enough to qualify as a big city.

Boston, however, is small enough to make it feel almost quaint.

Boston has character.

Boston has an energy.

Boston has some old architecture that reminds you of the wars fought.

Boston has some modern architecture that reminds you of today.

Boston holds historic Fenway Park.

Bostonians have a funny accent.

Boston has some great food options.

Is Boston perfect? No.

Boston still has the Italian mafia (don't let anyone dissuade of of such a notion).

Boston's politicians (specifically Speakers of State House) are consistently busted for corruption.

Boston can be cold.

Boston's metro is an old, antiquated system that is costing a fortune to SLOWLY upgrade.

Have I mentioned the Italian Mob yet? Wait...whoops!
