    Very,very nice. Thanks for the chance.
    I have never been to Boston but right now my whole heart is with them & those who lost.

    Born & raised in Windsor, Ontario. My favorite thing about it is the downtown core.
    It is a shadow of what it once was but my memories as a child are fresh. A time
    when there were no shopping malls. The streets bustled, Kresge hot dogs, the candy store,
    soda fountains, creaky floors, the city market & even the elevator guy at the Simpson-Sears
    Department Store. Much has changed & I now live outside the city in a small town but
    visit often. Tomorrow I visit my favorite downtown record store, still there after twenty
    years.

    I live in MA in the Boston area and I love Boston because the city is has a tuff but sweet cool vibe about it. You can be and dress anyway you want to and nobody is going to bug you about it you can just be yourself.
    It also has cool record stores!!


    Thanks for the give away and great news they just caught the other guy and he is ALIVE !!

    i don't want to win any of the prizes but i want to share my thoughts

    what I love about boston - hmmmm

    i love the feeling it gives me when I think about it... i cannot put into words the pride i feel for my hometown
    i grew up in the the city as did my Dad as did my Nana... my roots will always be there even though we sold the family home...

    I love the pride that all Bostonians have

    I know Sports aren't life or death but they're an escape for many many Bostonians - and we celebrate and suffer with our teams...

    I love how it jumps up a notch during playoff season - I've been to many Celtics and Patriots (and sox & Bs) games and the playoff ones always leave me exhausted ... but smiling

    I love the loyalty... if you put a bunch of Bostonians in a bar in Boston watching a game you might find a few guys from Brighton fighting a few guys from Southie .... but if you put all those clowns in a bar in New Orleans then we're all best friends and high fiving each other with every sox score or pats TD
    (I experienced this first hand)

    I love the (dirty) water - I'm a big fan of cities with waterfronts - such a great place to relax

    I love the fucked up way the streets were laid out - who needs a grid system? ;)

    i love the skyline, the pru, the hancock, the old hancock -

    i love knowing what the lights mean on top of the old hancock

    i love knowing what it means to order cold tea late night in chinatown

    I love discussing how you talk funny and not me - with my go to reply being that your uncles wife is not an insect

    I love the love affair that some of us have with Pearl Jam

    I love that I had a few college classes with the Cow who had his teats sucked by Stone

    i love seeing my city in movies and tv shows

    i love hearing how other people love my city


    i may have moved out of the city a handful of years ago - but the events of last week brought much sadness to my heart - i live just outside boston now... but boston is always deep inside my heart

    i love boston - i am boston
