Maybe Menino's erection would be more appropriate over in the Combat Zone?

Or maybe further west

I know an Athol that's wanted an erection in it for quite some time...

What if they put it in Athol and thought it was Orange?

And what about neighboring Petersham?

On the plus side, that erection wouldn't last for more than four hours, and Menino wouldn't have to seek medical attention.

reminds me of something proposed near my dad's house in MI:

250-foot tower, with a 40-foot Jesus on top

I don't care if it rains or freezes

clinging to the top of that fine tower ...

Is Monahan, famous for his exhortations to the poor to buy food from animal feed stores, going to actually emulate the man who made loaves and fishes for all, or does he just want everyone to know what a religious guy he is.

Somehow, I don't think there's going to be a camel small enough ... or a needle big enough.
