U2 <> Alternative Music

World:  Why do people insist on calling U2 alternative music?  I wouldn't mind except that this means that when I try to listen to true alternative music on the radio I occasionally have to hear "Beautiful Day" or "One" or some other garbage song.    It's pissing me off and it's unnecessary.  U2 isn't alternative its easy-listening.  I wish they would play their songs on easy-listening stations and not on my alternative stations.

Massachusetts Residents Vote Against Freedom

Given the opportunity to vote on whether folks should have the freedom to purchase wine in supermarkets Massachusetts’s residents actually voted against it…

Considering crime? Consider Boston.

Boston is a choice area for all violent crimes. The city’s citizens are nearly completely unarmed due to local laws. Boston’s gun laws are so strict that there is no need to worry about potential targets having the ability to defend themselves with arms – even pepper spray and mace require a special license to carry on one’s person. What does that mean to you? It means that if you are considering raping people, mugging people, breaking and entering, car jacking, and/or other forms of violent crime you should seriously consider the high reward low risk potential that Boston has to offer.
