….It’s post like these that bring down your blog. You have been removed from my RSS. What a worthless post.
Wow. Rick, you seem angry. Very angry.
What a shame to lose you.
The good thing about a blog, actually, the best thing, is that it is easy to skim through entries that don’t interest you. I post a large numbr of posts, each. As a result, not every post will be interesting to every person. I think, however, by and large, the vast majority of entries are useful and/or enlightening.
You miss the point of this post, perhaps others did, as well. I didn’t give much information.
The Kenmore Sq subway station has been under construction for several years. It never seems as if they are doing anything. Apparently they are, this is proof. Each of those tiles looks to be individually installed. That’s a lot of work on something that probably 99% of people won’t even notice.
But I did notice. I notice a lot of things that others don’t, in fact.
This is a photo of Boston, as it is today. That’s why it is important.
To put it in terms you might understand, **** ** **, ********.
Yeah, I chickened out!
Perhaps Rick is just a frustrated Senior MBTA official. With all of the current woes of the Administration maybe he had no where else to vent. I enjoy Johns unique perspective on all things Boston. He has more insight into the day to day happenings of the city than anyone else I see out on the net.
not to brag about my interior design skillz, but those aren’t anywhere close to being subway tiles. traditionally, subway tiles are white, rectangular, nonbeveled, and perhaps porcelain. just like in nyc. perhaps rick is a prickly interior designer…
Ha ha. Probably, David. Funny, I thought it was the other way around, that the white tiles like in a bathroom were not “subway”. To me, “subway” is like what you see in NYC. I’ll take a photo, later today, since I’m down here.
More like “kitchen” tiles?
Regardless, it might be the cynic in me, but I can’t imagine they will stay there, very long. They go all the way down the column to the floor .. very easy to knock off.
