Several paper signs in the window of 378 Highland Avenue (formerly Rock City Guitars) announce that "KICK*SS CUPCAKES" is "COMING SOON" to that location. I know nothing more.

And yes, the signs have a *, not an A.

Cupcakes are always a welcome addition. I'm ready. :-)

Wow, more food in Somerville... Jesus Christ, how about a radio shack or something useful?

I'm on the far end of Davis, closer to broadway and Medford st/central st, so Porter's usually a car ride for me. I'd just like a nice comprehensive audio/electronics store in the square, instead of MORE pizza, MORE indian, MORE szechuan food...

My guess is that they will sell more than just cupcakes.

There used to be a Radio Shack in Davis Square. It didn't seem to do much business and that's probably why they pulled out (don't remember if they moved to the current Porter location or if that location was already there.)

Now that was probably 10 or more years ago, so maybe they *could* do better in Davis today...but I wouldn't count on it.

I'm trying to imagine how any location closer to Broadway/Medford St/Central St is closer to Davis than Porter. I live near the intersection of Broadway and Central and I can walk to Porter in the same amount of time as I can walk to Davis.

Radio Shack is useful? Maybe in 1979....

Totally. Radio shack? Lame. I rarely buy capacitors OR resistors. But food? I eat food every day!

the question is, do they sell cupcakes at all, or something non sequitur, like T-shirts.

I believe the sign would then have to say Johnny Cupcakes

Radio Shack blows. Bring on the cupcakes.

I hope it's cupcakes. I like cupcakes!

As far as I know it is indeed a cupcake bakery. I emailed with the owner about it a bit. I mentioned that she might want to have coffee and at least a little seating since the existing coffee shops are so extremely full sometimes.

Hooray for cupcakes! :)

Nah, I'm definitely closer to Davis. Plus, it's a better square.

I especially hate it when Time and Newsweek do it. How condescending to their readers! Are there seriously people out there who would be offended if quoted swear words weren't underscored out? (f____ s___!!)

That is the most exciting thing I have heard all day.

Of course, I spent most of my day watching America's Next Top Model reruns. It was a very, very low bar.
