So I'm walking around Boston's North End and all of a sudden I am stopped by a person with a walkie talkie dressed in black. She said they needed me to wait to cross the street for a couple of minutes as they were filming a movie. I was right in front of Bova's Bakery anyway so no big deal as I could go in for some stuff while I waited. Anyway, when I come out and they end the shoot I see that Boston's native son is headlining this soon to be straight to video epic. He was about half a block away doing his thing. Favoring a fresh made eclair to a closer dance with fame, I walked away leaving an obviously disappointed Affleck behind.

Ben seems like a good guy. A string of weak movies has put him on the D list.
I expect to see him as a "TV Star" in 2010 reviving "Peter Gunn" or something.

Not to mention your aversion to boobs.

GD...I know this won't surprise you, but I am a big fan of that bakery...and the North End.

We seem to have a lot of the same tastes Fred...fine wine, good food, and a strong dislike for me.

I went to Antico Forno and Regis Pizza as well as Bova's while I was there. I was very happy with each of the choices.

I have never gone wrong with any of my choices in the North End. My only problem was last time I was there, I was by myself on a trip broadcasting a Fire game, and I couldn't spend the whole evening soaking up the atmosphere.

Odd choice considering the days news.

Can't make the 21st, but the 28th is a possibility for me.

Thanks!
