Far too early. The Halloween decorations aren't even up yet.

Do they want a piece of Mayflower Poultry's business?

Question, are you allowed to kill these?

Hunting's not allowed in Boston.

Yet, strangely, the poultry section at Roche Bros. always has turkeys for sale. Hmmmmmmmmmmm.....

If hunting is legal, apparently you can.

I thought they were an endangered species.

Like any other political group valiantly struggling against injustice we sometimes must engage in the mundane practices of picketing and soliciting signatures for our ballot initiatives.

For knowing that Roche Bros. is the place to go - people there will sign anything.

This reminds me of a place in Chinatown that sells fresh-killed chickens. You can see the shopkeeper chasing the chickens around the store. Of course, that was a few years ago; the place is probably closed, and there is probably a high-rise condo complex in its place...

In fact, there are two. One's on Kneeland, the other's on, hmm, either Beach or Essex.

for "more prepared-food and seafood options," and the "floral area right off the main entrance, rather than a few rows in."
