Eyebrow waxes

I was thinking of getting my eyebrows waxed. Can anyone reccommend a good salon in Davis for waxes? I've had (mostly) good waxing experiences and would prefer a place with people who really know how to minimize the pain.

kool smiles flyers

Did anyone else find a "Kool Smiles" flyer literally STUCK to their windshield today? I just came home to find it under my wiper and when I went to pull it out from there, part of it remained stuck to my windshield. I would guess from some kind of adhesive, and frankly I find that really obnoxious!

I actually called their number and they nicely transferred me to a complaint line where I left a message about this and the area (Davis Square, Holland St). I'd recommend anyone else as annoyed by this as I am do the same. The main number is 617-427-5665 (in case it was mangled in trying to peel off the flyer!) - the woman I spoke to there also told me they aren't supposed to be sticking these under car wipers but handing them to people directly.

MBTA: suffer a change error in teller's favor? report it.

I just had a chat with a fellow in Davis Square who'd bought 4 tokens earlier today for $10, and gotten $4 in change ($1 short).

I wouldn't have thought anything of it, but he said he'd gotten the change in the form of two $1 bills and two $1 coins, which was sufficiently distracting that he didn't notice he'd been shorted until later.

It still could be an honest mistake, but the fact that the change was such an odd combination, which a) takes a bit of extra effort on the part of the teller to assemble, and b) made it harder to notice the error, makes me suspect a scam.

I encouraged him to report to the MBTA the time and place this occurred, and I encourage you to as well if it happens to you. If there is a trend to these reports the MBTA will catch the person.


For reference, below the cut are the "write to the top" contacts for each of the lines, where I hope such reports would aggregate.
