I’m Shipping Up To Boston

Thursday, February 14, 2008

Thomas Nast and Ireland's finestFor what it’s worth, I don’t think the title of this post is a very good DKM song. But I digress.

I’m heading up for observation of the land where sports-fan self-pity survives even in the face of multiple championships. While it might be rare for an Irish-American to have gone this long without stopping through Massachusetts, I’d like to point out that my grandparents managed to go their entire lives without visiting Boston, and they rocked the Irish-immigrant thing just the same.

Baked beans for all and Happy President’s Day.

  1. That’s where I was born. Have an awesome time. Tons of history stuff obviously – their holocaust memorial is near Faneuil Hall on Congress and I liked how it was done.

  3. It’s an ok song, but I like Kiss me I’m Shitfaced and Spicy McHaggus way better.
