:rofl:

In MA they call liquor stores 'packies'.
A term from prohibition days, I think... maybe.
That's what a lot of people here call them. ;)

Packie

Wicked Good Guide to Boston English /


http://www.boston-online.com/glossary/packie.html

"A package store; wheah you buy beah."

:rofl:

A now historical photo: Until December, 2003, Boston packies legally could not open on Sundays:


Out of staters are ALWAYS confused when I use this term. "Can we stop at the package store?"
They always assume I mean UPS or something.

Naw! He's shooting off fireworks! :rofl:

Happy New Year to you too! :D

5. Happy New Year to you, Southpawkicker! ~ I'll be home too!
:toast:

And I'll probably be here alone.

I guess I could go to my local AMVETS and hang out with the old farts but I don't want to drink and drive!


So.... looks like it's you and me! :D

13. Cool, who is it?
I'll try downloading it in a few minuted (dial up sucks) and my son just got home from work

and he's "wondering what to do tonight"... and I need to 'guide him'... ;)

He and his friend don't know what to do tonight he says.

I suggested Neon Rock & Roll Bowling ... keep them out of trouble! ;)

friend to go to a movie. But they want to go

to a "free" buffet 35 miles away after the movie! :scared:

I don't want them driving on the highway that late on New year's Eve!! :banghead:

Shit!!!

Blondie - Rapture :P (Downloading may take awhile *sigh*)
