I’m a Bostonian, born and bred. I don't think I really have to say anything else. But I will. My entire family lives here. I was born in Brigham and Women's Hospital, one of the best hospitals in the nation. Boston is probably the best medical city in the world – if I had to choke on something at a restaurant, I'd want it to be in a Boston restaurant. I grew up in a suburb twenty minutes away that felt like the countryside, all woods and homey privacy and snow drifts four feet high in the winter. But whenever I wanted, I could take a train into the city (yes, you New Yorkers, we call ours The City too) and check out the Museum of Fine Arts, catch a movie, a famed swan boat ride at the Boston Common, hit the ballet at the Wang Center, a show at the recently-renovated Opera House, and, best for last, watch the Red Sox at Fenway. I'm pretty sure I really don’t need to talk about Fenway. But let’s not forget the other great history here. No kid’s grown up within a 60 mile radius and not been on the Minuteman Trail, not seen the birthplaces of Transcendentalism, or not heard about the great politics that have gone on in this even-greater city. And we've all sat on the bronze ducks in the Common.And if you’re a college student in Boston,you’ll never lack for things to do or people to hang out with. How could you? We’ve got over a hundred colleges in the metro area alone – and over four hundred in the state. Do I have a superiority complex? Maybe. Just a little one. Really. But hey, can you blame me? We’re the winningest sports city of the millennium. We have the world’s best and the brightest, the nation’s future. And we know how to have a good time. So you wish you were in Boston right now? I’ll bet you do. Else, I’d be wicked pissed. Related Top 10 Sources: Red Sox | Boston Celtics | Massachusetts Politics

If the neighborhood is Hyde Park, the answer is two. Both are on River Street; the New York one is in Cleary Square; the New Orleans version just outside Logan Square.

Don Martelli explains why he's asking people to ask their legislators in general (and members of the Senate Ways and Means Committee in particular) to support a bill that would give people about to be committed to guardianship - or a nursing home - the right to legal counsel.
