If you find yourself needing help, consider asking the wise jellyfish who lives in this blue box amidst the woods of Ringer Park. If you can locate it, that is – only the honestly deserving will find their path converge with this elusive aquatic alter.

Fightclub After-school Special

Posted by nathanael. Filed Under crime | Leave a Comment

From the Tab.

Police were called to Ringer Park in Allston on Feb. 5 at approximately 3:29 p.m. to investigate a report of a fight between two young women that about 15-20 males were videotaping.

Officers canvassed the park area and found a small group of females leaving, walking toward Gordon Street. One girl was suffering from several scratches on her face that were bleeding. The 16-year-old girl said she had been in a fight with unknown suspects, and that the boys were taping it for broadcast on YouTube.

I couldn’t find it on the youtubes. But it probably went something like this.

Spooky poster

No idea what this is, other than what the spooky poster spookily says. Pumpkin stuff, costume stuff, scarecrow making stuff(!) this afternoon at Ringer Park. And MORE. Like more anti-social smashing mirrors stuff or happy caramel apples and other cavity forming stuff? Probably a little of both.

light saver, originally uploaded by bleggg.

The Church at the Gate is meeting at Roppongi, & distributing compact fluorescents.

We will be giving away 1500 light bulbs very soon that will save the neighborhood $54,000 in energy costs and enough energy to power a medium sized home in Allston for more than 300 years. We will also be doing trash pickup around Allston Village and in Ringer Park throughout the year and we will be doing activities for the children during the summer.
