BMG Writers needed!

October 28, 2009 By matt-in-boston

First, here’s the organizer’s press release:

The strongest neighborhoods consist of well-informed citizens who unite to know not only the issues, but their neighbors as well.

To that end, four of Greater Neponset’s civic associations have joined forces to present a Candidates Night / Fall Social.

You are cordially invited to come listen to the At-Large candidates for the Boston City Council while renewing old acquaintances or making new ones. Politicking & Socializing….what a great way to spend an Autumn evening !!

This event will be a catered affair with food & drinks for all.

Jointly Sponsored by:

Pope’s Hill Neighborhood Association

Cedar Grove Civic Association

Clam Point Civic Association

St. Mark’s Area Civic Association

Date: Wednesday, October 28, 2009

Time: 7:00pm – 9:00pm

Location: Richard J. Murphy School

Street: 7 Worrell Street

City/Town: Dorchester, MA

The organizers have provided me with a list of questions. They all deal with serious and important concerns facing Bostonians. These are the main queries — all of which were written by the Dot consortium (and not me) — that will make up the crux of the evening.

However, I’d also like to include a couple of entertaining questions throughout the course of the night. I want to give the candidates an opportunity to tackle the tough issues like: What is your favorite Boston sports moment? Or Where’s the best pizza in the city?



I’m looking to you for some more suggestions. Please have at it in the comment section or e-mail me (heymattomalley@aol.com) if you’d prefer.

        Which is a better park the “Rose Kennedy Greenway” or all other parks in the City of Boston combined?  

        <

        p>Oh wait, the questions were supposed to be jokes, which I just is appropriate, since the “Greenway Conservancy” is a joke… at our expense.

          Although it seems better aimed at Menino since it happened on his watch.

          <

          p>I’d still love to hear what the council plans to do about improving it.

    Steel-cage death match: Tito Francona vs Bill Belichick.  Question is: does Belichick get carried out intact, or with one, maybe two limbs, missing?

    <

    p>Kevin Gah-ned… awesome? Or Wicket awesome?

    <

    p>If elected to the City Council will you support an ordinance requiring Michael Jordan to carry Larry Birds jockstrap while within city limits?  

    <

    p>If elected to the Boston City Council will you commit to twice yearly booze-cruises on the USS Constitution?

    <

    p>Gettting hammahd at a Canal street bah versus getting lowdid on Lansdowne street… which is the religious experience and which is merely a pisser of a good time?

    <

    p>Will you support an ordinance requiring any reference to Chicago as “The City of Fluffy Pizza”???

    <

    p>Can we get a limit on the number of douchebags driving BMWs in the financial district?  I mean, really!! C’mon!

    <

    p>Whaddya mean, ‘no free chowdah’!?!?!!?

A huge pleasure to join @RepDylan as he launched the #Massachusetts Friends of UK Legislative Caucus at the home of the @FCDOPeterAbbott. It was wonderful to talk about how we can collaborate to benefit constituents and deepen long-standing ties! #mapoli

If you're familiar with #mapoli I have questions for you!

My intern is applying for an internship there - obvs I'm thrilled. 😊 What should she know about how the MA legislature is staffed? What other essential knowledge would you pass along?

It's April in #mapoli which means budget season is in full swing. The House will soon pitch a tax relief proposal alongside their 2024 fiscal plan.

- Auditor DiZoglio won't back down
