A very lazy day

I honestly didn't do anything at all today.

It's raining, it's a bit chilly and my back is killing me.

Sounds like the perfect day to do nothing.

There is no Red Sox baseball tonight so I will have to find something to entertain myself.

One option is the Netflix "The Clubhouse - A Year with the Red Sox".

They kinda sucked last year but seeing the behind the scenes stuff that Netflix captured might be interesting.

I can't read this story because I refuse to pay the Boston Globe (John Henry) any money but the headline says it all:

In ‘millionaires tax’ bill, House speaker carved out $25m for a parking garage in his hometown. Critics call it a ‘power play’.

My question to the Speaker would be, "Please explain why you believe that the people of Quincy needed a parking garage more than all the people across Massachusetts who need help with their crumbling house foundations? $25 million would go a long way in helping a lot of those people save their homes."

I'd love to hear his answer to that question.

My followup question would be, "It's been at least 10 years since Massachusetts had a Speaker of the House convicted of a crime. What do you think the chances are that we go 10 more years before another one is indicted?"
