Suddenly, photos of men on the T are hot

adamg — Thu, 09 Feb 2012 13:25:09 +0000

Hotties on the T bills itself as:

Pictures of Men. Taken by Men. On the T.

And unlike that blow in from London, this site doesn't pretend to be about crushes:

This is about admiration. Admiration of fine looking men on the T. From a male perspective. We don't know our subjects, nor do we presume to know if they are gay, bi, or straight. We take unstaged pictures.

Workers at the Panera on High Street downtown are all wearing Giants Super Bowl shirts today to settle a bet their manager made with his counterpart at a Panera in New York.

A pawnbroker dumped 900 pounds of Butterfingers candy bars in Copley Square today to commemorate Wes Welker's performance in the Super Bowl. The CEO claims he loves to talk to people; you can let him know what you think at 720-320-7777.

UPDATE: The mayor's office reports:

Code enforcement has tracked company's address and contacts; will be issuing violation for commercial dumping.

That could mean a fine of up to $1,000.

I don't know how he got down there, but I hope he was just curious about the view.
