Scott<p>While I do perform in front of audiences semi-regularly, something about 1. using a script and 2. being on camera makes me incredibly nervous.

Cambridge Day<p>The little print edition coming out Thursday goes big on Cambridge transit and elections but makes note of Somerville pizza, artificial turf for Lincoln Park and another hotel project for the area! The cities have added at least six hotels since 2014. Nice to get visitors.

swachter<p>Ok: good people of Mastodon, help me compile a list of everything even remotely dinosaur-related in the greater Boston area. Items should be visible from public streets or sidewalks and within about an 8-10 mile ring from downtown Boston. Street names, murals, climbing structures, statuary, shrubberies, lawn decorations, splash pads, trilobites embedded in concrete: all are fair game. Bonus: any purveyors of calories with dinosaur-themed items on the menu. </p><p>The Rex at MOS is already on the list. Boosts appreciated!</p><p>(Edit: Saugus is a bit out of our range but otherwise the orange Rex would also be on the list!)</p><p><a href="https://toot.boston/tags/clevergirl" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>clevergirl</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/dinosaurs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>dinosaurs</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/prehistoric" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>prehistoric</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/jurassicpark" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>jurassicpark</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/boston" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>boston</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/cambridge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>cambridge</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/somerville" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>somerville</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/waltham" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>waltham</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/watertown" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>watertown</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/newton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>newton</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/jamaicaplain" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>jamaicaplain</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/roslindale" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>roslindale</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/roxbury" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>roxbury</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/dorchester" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>dorchester</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/brighton" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>brighton</span></a> <a href="https://toot.boston/tags/allston" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>allston</span></a></p>
