Some painter took a look at our house, determined we are in immediate need of his services and left his business card, which has a bullet list of his qualifications, including:
Serious and guaranteed
Because, you know, those grinning, laff-a-minute contractors who burst out of their VW Bugs with their 20 employees in greasepaint are just so annoying (but he's right - the old manse does need painting, so if you know of any good house painters in Greater Roslindale, I'm all ears).

The Globe recently profiled some pickup owner who claims he now pays $75 three times a week to fill up. Bill does the math and says the numbers just don't add up:
... Okay, let's say he does pay $75 (three times a week) and his truck averages around 15.5 MPG. He must be driving around 961 miles a week; that's almost 50,000 miles a year. Wow. And it's costing him around $11,000 to do that much driving.
So basically the story from the Boston Globe is that consumers that drive over three times the yearly national average are facing a financial burden. Yep, sounds like NEWS to me. ...
