The drive back from Maine on Monday was uneventful, but for a nice discovery.

Park Street Cell service

[taskboy3000]

Oddly enough, there appears to be some cell service on the Red Line platform at Park Street. I know that sounds messed up, but try it. At least for my crappy t-mobile phone, I was able to get 3 bars!

The scene in question was on train moving towards Braintree/Ashmont, and still underground. I just can't buy it!

there was an interview with the actress who played the psychologist in the departed where she mentioned that she met with some psychologists who work with police officers. to a person, the folks she met with mentioned that the character was not a very effective or ethical counselor. as a result, the actress decided that her character either didn't know enough to stay out of these kinds of unethical behaviors, or knew and decided to behave that way anyway.

myself, i would have paid $10 to watch how marky mark reacted to her, but that's another story.

It wasn't even the unethical behavior that threw me, it was the fact that she lost her cool so easily during the few sessions we saw, getting flustered and speechless a lot. The hell?

Aw, shucks, thanks! It's been good to see you more often.

For the record, though, I don't think just one game is enough to absolutely confirm such a judgment. :)
