My Kinda Town

And this, Ladies and Gentlemen, and all the ships at sea, is yet another reason why ...
I .... Love .... Boston!

Mark Twain Quote:  "Terror is an efficiacious agent only when it doesn't last.  In the long run there is more terror in threats than in execution, for when you get used to terror your emotions get dulled."

Factoid:  On a chilly day in mid November, 1869, a "small man with a deranged mop of curly red hair and a wide-swept red mustache" walked up Tremont St. to the offices of the "Atlantic Monthly," there to meet their young assistant editor, one William Dean Howells, thus establishing a lifelong professional relationship and personal friendship.

Tremont St. is mere blocks from Boylston St. In fact, they intersect close to Copley Square.  And the unkept little man was, of course, Mark Twain.
