The ongoing saga of a programmer who doesn't live in Boston, nor does he even like Boston, but yet named his weblog/journal “The Boston Diaries.”
Go figure.
We spent the day celebrating six more weeks of this sweltering winter weather at the 2008 South Florida Fair.

One note about the pig race—in the minutes before First Call, they were playing what I would swear is country-industrial music. Very weird.

No AI was used in the making of this site, unless otherwise noted.
You have my permission to link freely to any entry here. Go ahead, I won't bite. I promise.
The dates are the permanent links to that day's entries (or entry, if there is only one entry). The titles are the permanent links to that entry only. The format for the links are simple: Start with the base link for this site: https://boston.conman.org/, then add the date you are interested in, say 2000/08/01, so that would make the final URL:
https://boston.conman.org/2000/08/01
You can also specify the entire month by leaving off the day portion. You can even select an arbitrary portion of time.
You may also note subtle shading of the links and that's intentional: the “closer” the link is (relative to the page) the “brighter” it appears. It's an experiment in using color shading to denote the distance a link is from here. If you don't notice it, don't worry; it's not all that important.
