parking office and parties

So I've heard this rumor that if you are planning on having a party, you can phone the parking office and ask them to not ticket your street for that night. I was wondering both if this was still true and also if you had to phone them on Friday if your party was on the Saturday or Sunday.

If you like to eat at fancy restaurants...

Go to one of these fancy restaurants for brunch next weekend, help hunger. :)

Greater Boston Food Bank hunger brunch

Just saw it in the Globe, they do this every year-posting in case anyone's interested-good prices for those restaurants, anyway...

People east of Davis, please keep an eye on your cars

We are really getting a rash of car break-ins concentrated in a certain neighborhood. Check out the police logs in this week's Journal; there's more in the area immediately east of Davis than _anywhere else_ in the city. Especially Highland from Davis to Cedar, up and down Willow, and different side streets off of Lowell, south of the railroad tracks. Last week's was similar too.

People, please call the police if you see something that doesn't look right, like people walking around peeking into car windows. If you're not sure it's something that qualifies as an emergency, you can always call their non-emergency line at (617) 625-1600.
