Boston really does have an extroardinary amount of weirdos living amongst it. Truly amazing. Seattle has its fair share of loons, but each time I visit the city of Boston I am simply astonished at the volumes of nuts adorning its streets and subway stations. And a goodly portion of them aren’t quiet about it, either. They feel an insatiable urge to come up to you and poke you in the shoulder while shouting "SASSIFRILLIAC! GREB! HEY! YOU! FREEBLEGAGAGAGAGA!!" I figure that Seattle’s quota of the Touched wll eventually reach Boston’s current level at about the year 2100. By then I believe Boston will have so many kooks floating around that it will be touted as the world’s biggest outdoor year-round carnival. All sorts of people will shout "HEY! COCHISE!" at you for no apparent reason, and it’ll be amusing instead of puzzling and/or frightening.
