What to do during a snow emergency?

My plans for tonight got canceled due to the snow emergency and I was wondering what (if anything) is open in the Davis Square (or within walking distance) such as bars and restaurants etc.  Do the bars typically stay open?

It's Massachusetts...nothing closes a bar around here!

Seriously, unless they lose power, they tend to stay open. Personally, I'm making a brisket and watching Hellboy 2.

Aren't bars closed on Election Day? Or is that just liquor stores?

Bars are not closed on Election Day. I don't think liquor stores are, either. People watched and celebrated the election results in bars last month.

Hunh. I could've sworn alcohol sales were prohibited on Election Day. Did they undo that recently or something, along with allowing Sunday sales?

I don't go out drinking much, as you can probably tell.

They are closed in lots of other states on Election Day, which made the 30 minute trip to the county line when I was in college especially frustrating.

Nope, there's always been booze on Election Day in Massachusetts. It's all the other New England states that didn't use to allow it.

My boyfriend works part time at a liquor store and he worked on Election Day. I only remember because it was the day I got back from London and I was annoyed he didn't take the night off.

I don't know why, but this just amused me. :) Thanks for the laugh!

I'm glad, you are welcome! :-)

I ended up watching "White Christmas", which seemed to go with Brisket a bit better. Brisket was good though.
