I was quoted in the newspaper.

That's right, I made a stupid joke so mind-numbingly banal and stunted in its execution that a newspaper decided it was fit to print.

No but seriously, the MBTA is awesome, I love that the commuter rail is a thing I can use to just go to Boston for whatever reason. The idea that public transportation needs to be 100% paid for by commuter fees is ridiculous, however. Even private transportation companies are subsidized to an extent. So much of the MBTA's debt comes from the Big Dig that Beacon Hill really needs to get their act together and help them out here.
