South End Restaurant Recommendation

Columbus Ave.  South End.  BOSTON I went to one of my favorite dining spots in the city last night, the Columbus Cafe. It’s really a cozy little nook with fare that’s adventurous and satisfying. The portions are legitimate and the price is even more pleasing. I’ve seen daily specials range from gator to shark to [...]

Restaurant Review: Carmen

North End – BOSTON Hot diggidy damn, Dave just hit a GRANNY! SNAP!!!!! Sorry, so Carmen in the North End is wicked  heady.  Small little spot in North Square, probably 10 tables max.  Everything about this place illustrates why the North End is soo decent – the best part is having to walk through the [...]

Manny Taking Decency to New Levels

Manny Ramirez is on fire. Smokin balls left and right, tearing up pitchers up and down, and picking up the slack while Ortiz’s slump continues. Approaching 500 dingers, putting up numbers that have people talking Triple Crown, over the last nine games he’s hitting .441 with 4 bombs and 12 RBIs. He’s also leading the AL [...]

An Honest Job Posting on Craigslist

Marketing/Advertising/Sales – Start Entry Level Reply to: XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX Date: 2008-04-17, 4:09PM EDT Excellent opportunity for a hands-on, self-pleasuring freak to promote general lewdness and prey on sexual inadequacies of men. Internet Solution Freaks, Inc. has an opening as an email spammer specifically targeting email addresses that look like they may belong to men. Your unsolicited emails will [...]

where’s helmet?

so, i’ve gotten many many emails questioning my recent decency, or lack there of.  well, i’ll have you know that i’ve been really busy with what has almost become a full time freaking job…. a full time job called promoting decency in cheeseteak form!  much of my time has been devoted to ironing out the [...]

“CPR for Babes” is a Decent Idea!

I just read this super-fantastic article about a man with a venture. I’m not sure I’d call it a business venture because I’m not sure how he makes money. His new business does come with benefits however. I think this Gustave Merrit guy is pretty smart. Read below and decide for yourself. (NewsWire) Waltham, MA. [...]

Boston’s Lack of Small Scale Games

  While the Boston sports scene is thriving in every way on the macro level (except having the Bruins season about to end tonight), I’d make an argument that the popularity of the games we actually play are lagging. Further, it’s difficult to get ice time at a hockey rink, get a court to play [...]

The Depressed Vet Crew May Be Growing

A recent study was just completed which found that “One In Five Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans Suffer from PTSD or Major Depression.”  With well over a million service members having already returned from Iraq and Afganistan, the study suggests that this means over 300,000 are suffering from Post Traumatic Stress Disorder and/or Depression.  One could argue that the [...]

Author of The Prophet Is Apparently an Odd Fellow

I’m sure we’ve all heard of The Prophet. Even if your heady, long-haired friend hasn’t told you about it, there’s a great chance you’ve heard exerpts at weddings or funerals, or an uncle reciting passages at holiday dinners. I first heard about from my granny at a very young age. She is very fond of it. [...]

Eating Less Burgers Will Help Stop Global Warming

I read this horrendous editorial in the Boston Globe today that says eating less burgers will help slow down global warming. If this is the case, then I guess I’ve been leading a double life for the past couple years. On one hand, I’m a big proponent of putting an end to global warming and [...]

R Kelly’s “Real Talk” is Real Decent

A friend showed me this video yesterday and now I just can’t get enough of it. Talk about keeping it real! Everything this guy’s preaching is spot on! R Kelly is one wild dude and apparently he likes telling his girl how it is. Truth telling – R Kelly style – Decent! (Note: There’s hardly a word [...]

Valid Excuse for Missing Work?

It’s a question that’s been posed throughout the history of mankind: Is having diarrhea a legitmate reason for missing work? I always thought the answer was no, but I got an email yesterday from a co-worker who said she’d be missing work because of a bad case of diarrhea. I suppose the answer can be different [...]

Legendary Concert Review

I was browsing through www.LivePhish.com and came across this great review of a show from 7/6/98 in Prague. It’s from a user named “SWEET”.   “I remember the show like it was yesterday. I was there with my boy Ferk. We had just got off the train and I scored some hard acid and half [...]

This Dude Loves His Reefers!

As many of you know, we’re now at the ten day countdown for the counterculture holiday of the year. We’ll try to make some posts relating to the event in the days leading up to the big day. Here’s a great video to start you off. This is one dedicated pot-smoker, perhaps risking his chances [...]

Renewing Your “Going Out” Vows

A good friend of mine recently thought it was necessary to renew his “Going Out” vows with his girlfriend. Much in the same way that married couples renew their marriage vows, this guy and his girl went to the place where they first agreed to become boyfriend and girlfriend, my friend then re-asked the question, [...]

Exploring the Mullet’s Origin

I think it’s worth checking out this interesting piece from Sunday’s Boston Globe on how the word “Mullet” has been used throughout the history of our language. A decent word and a sometimes-decent look, this column expands on the “mullet strategy” that new websites use, and also investigates how Burt Reynolds and the Beastie Boys may [...]

Serving Up a Bol of Decency

It’s about time that a good friend of the community was recognized for his decency. It’s about time that Manute Bol started getting some props for leading a life that’s nothing less than monumental! The 7′ 7″ Sudanese luminary has just about done it all in his day. A legendary shot blocker, 3 point assassin, [...]

Decent Quote

“Well I say unto you, what does it matter the color of a man’s skin when witnesses purjure themselves and prosecutors enlist the perjury; when a district attorney throws a man to the mob for political gain and men of the cloth, men of God, take the prime cut? Is that justice? Let me tell [...]
