Like a lot of people we can’t wait to see the Sex and the City movie. It’s all the heavy drinking, frustration with men, and female bonding we crave, except in a different city and dressed in much nicer clothes. (Speaking of the wardrobe, we’re counting down our favorite Carrie Bradshaw ensembles on 
Even the price of colorful explosives is going through the roof (so to speak): Randolph has canceled its July 3 fireworks display, citing the tough economic times. [

Last night, I had another frustrating commute home. I waited at North Station as several trains came through with not one of them heading to Lechmere. When I eventually made it home, I turned on the TV and suddenly didn’t mind the delay so much when I saw the coverage of the
