holy mother of christ I went to another planet... Boston... ok so the trip wasnt too bad down... long from Maine of course but not too bad... get to the Hotel and from there it went completely downhill...
The Hotel: LaQuinta is spanish for "shitty service and rooms" now, those that live in the Boston area or have stayed at the LaQuinta Hotel understand this translation... in 5 different areas of the place we saw "Laquinta is spanish for" and then some line about greatness or how great they are... we origionally got 2 rooms cause my wifes parents were planning to stay there too... so we had placed reservations a week in advance, canceled one of the rooms cause her parents changed their minds.. get to the front desk and the lady tells us (friendly like) that our total was 90 dollars... my wife told her we were quoted 60, well you would have thought that we just told this girl that we are holding her IPod for ransom.. she got way snooty... we were tired.. said fuck it whatever.. payed the money.. get to the room and it has a no smoking sign.. go back to the desk and were told " oh its ok.. smells like smoke anyways" (thanks hostess.. really wanted to know I had a stinky room)... then we go inside the room and there are 2 beds... "whats wrong with that" you ask? well since when does a MARRIED couple reserve a room with 2 beds.. the hostess lied about the reservations... it was another 30 min before we heard 3 BUSSES of stupid 14 and 15 year old boppers from Canada (no offence guys) being dropped off at the Motel that night as well.. we do a little "going through the room and it just really sucks.. I wont go into detail cause ill bore you.. it was just really bad... Dont stay at the LaQuinta...
Boston: what is wrong with you guys... do you have something against a STRAIT ROAD!! you have NO STREETS that are straiter for longer than 500 feet.... and you insist that 50 MPH around a 90 degree bend is perfectly logical... lets not forget that you guys have issues with leaving Boston and seeing a lane of traffic to your left going into boston.. NO you gotta have 2 lanes on either side of you commin into Boston... you know how fmessed up that is at night when you can drive for 3 miles with no headlights cause you can tell the road length from the cars commin at you from both sides? lets not forget the parking on boths sides of a one way and some masshole decides to double park leaving enough room to squeeze a mini in between.... I bet all you Bostoners are still confused about that little stick to the left of your steering wheel.. ITS CALLED A BLINKER... The "L" wasnt too bad... after the 7th time riding it... I felt like a clown crammed into a mini car with 50 other clowns... I never dared to ask directions.. I did that once... I regreted it, my question was followed by a slew of directions that screwed me worse than I was before i asked... I quickly learned their philosophy on pedestrians... its.. "you can cut across the street.. but I aint slowing down so get out of the way..." the Prudential Tower has to be the tallest building I have yet to see with my own 2 eyes... screw you and your resturaunt at the top of it (52 floors).. you have got to be kidding me.. instead we go to the ever famous "Cheers".. the inspiration for the hit TV show... and they sell crappy burgers and cold fries... feed a party of 7? $121.00 ..sigh... I have never seen so many IPods and Cellphones in use at the same time... went to an Italian resturaunt.. crowd of people ALL ON A CELL PHONE.. I felt like an idiot so I took mine out and pretended to be talkin to someone.. cause I SWEAR all of you were lookin at me like I was some kind of moron w/o one in my hand attached to my ear... I think the bums even had one... man... I dread the fact that I am going to have to endure that again next year when my other brother in law graduates from N.U. till then... screw all you massholes.. you can keep your city.. im staying home...
