...not as funny as when "Big Red" stole a golf-cart from Herb Chambers, and was pulled over at 2 AM driving it up Harvard Ave.

I thought that was Beacon Street, and the cart came from City Hall?

I've long suspected that you couldn't outrun a police car on a scooter, but I'd never actually put my theory to the test. From an scientific and engineering standpoint, that bothered me. It was costing me precious beauty sleep every night.

I think we should all congratulate Mr. Fitzgerald for actually having the stones to test the theory. He just needs to revise and test it a few hundred more times and he might even be able to publish his results.

I dunno. They seem to get away with it pretty much constantly down by Franklin Park.

At least Brookline is willing to pull these things over, this never would've happened in Boston.
