Zipcar and car sharing parking question...

[turil.livejournal.com]

Does anyone know if the Somerville-based Zipcars have Somerville parking permits, so that they can be legally parked in our residential parking areas?

It makes sense that they would, and of course it's a great idea (to encourage more people to share cars, and to rent cars only when they need them, instead of owning them and keeping them on the streets), but I have no idea if this is the reality.

Also, does anyone know of any other (preferably non-corporate) car sharing options in the area? Even just a casual group of folks who share a car who might be open to me sharing it too once in a while for a reasonable rate? I rarely ever need one, but I've been having to move a lot lately, and it would be nice to know my options if my friends can't help me.

Egg Throwing

[makoshark.livejournal.com]

OK. Someone just threw an egg through my kitchen and into my wall of our third floor apartment right in the center of the square (near Mike's). Someone must have left the back door open -- I found it ajar. Somebody came up the back stairs and threw an egg through our kitchen that was, at the time, full of people. Nobody noticed until I found the egg residue on the wall a few minutes later. There are only four apartments in the building and we'd only opened our back door since we were cooking and the kitchen was hot.

What's up? Has anyone seen similar behavior?
