Cop cars and dogs at the TAB

[lovefourpaws.livejournal.com]

Has anyone else noticed that there have been several SUVs and K9 cop cars from Middlesex County parked on the flat top next to the TAB basketball courts and parking lot? They aren't there everyday, but they usually show up once or twice a week and seem to stay for a couple of hours. I'm not sure if they are training police dogs or something, but every time I walk by with my pup, I can hear the dogs barking like crazy from the cars. Are the cops using the old school for agility courses or scent practice? I'd ask the cops myself, but I never see any people. Just curious!

Nellie's?

I walk by Nellie's Wildflowers (on Holland) every day on my way to/from the T. I've noticed the last few days that they haven't seemed to be open during normal hours. This morning when I glanced in it looked like the front coolers may have been totally empty of flowers as well. There's no sign up except the normal "Closed" sign.

Anyone have any information on this? Am I just randomly missing their open hours? Are they on vacation and didn't put a sign up? I hope they aren't closing! Joyce (the owner) is really sweet and did my wedding flowers just last month...

Two (2) Vans Warped Tour Tickets for Sale

[justjess.livejournal.com]

So... I have Vans Warped Tour tickets that I can't use.

Two general admission tickets for next Tuesday, July 21st, at 1PM at the Comcast Center in Mansfield, MA. I'm asking slightly less than face value, so $50 for the pair (LiveNation's selling them for $26.25 each) plus however much shipping is if I have to mail them to get them to you in time.

Price negotiable. Make an offer.

Pet Sitting in Pet Sitter's Home?

[mermaidcafe.livejournal.com]

Hello!

I know there have been a lot of pet sitter recs here, but I'm looking for something I haven't seen advertised. Does anybody know of a good cat-sitter who can keep my cat in his/her home for a little over a week? My cat is very needy and people-dependent so I'd like for him to be somewhere that somebody would be around, even if he didn't get constant attention. He gets along with other animals but the only caveat is that he can only eat his special prescription food.

All his healthcare needs are up to date and I'd of course bring said special food, leave vet info, bring him to you/pick him up, all that stuff.

Does anybody have any recommendations or want a sweet kitty and some extra cash?

"Somerville 02144" on KISS 108

[saralsbeth.livejournal.com]

I'm sure this seems completely random, and perhaps off topic, but I wonder if anyone out there remembers the "Somerville 02144" skits that used to play on KISS 108. The skit ran the morning after Beverly Hills 90210 was on television and was a spoof of that show, but with Somerville characters. I grew up listening "in the country" as a kid, and now that I live in and love this city, I'd die to hear them again. Know where I could listen to them again? Anyone have memories of a particularly funny show?
