Boston Bars servin it up till 4a.m.
Just heard on the radio this morning that Boston bars will be open until 4am in an effort to curb afterhours----partys. Where people charge people to get in their houses and serve drinks for $..The city is going to do this for a 2 week period to see how it goes. The boston Police are hoping it will cut down on the house partys as well as the disturbing the peace calls......
Well doesn't that make it a whole lot easier to do some stunt drinking 
Let's get it on 
The first thing that popped into my head was, to bad the won't extend the train service, askin for trouble....... |
Used hard and put away dirty....

Sounds like by the time they make it to the train they'll be there at just about the right time to start riding with the morning commuters.  |

In the Globe it portrays it as only a proposal at this time and would only be as a pilot experiment for certain bars located in hotels. Of course, it is being faced with great opposition from some up-tight politicians with higher political ass-perations on their agenda by opposing it. Still needs to be voted on by the legislature before it can be enacted. One politician was quoted to the effect of "if people wanna drink in bars until 4 in the morning, then Boston is not the place for it. Go to NY".
This state sucks.

Great. I always thought it was lame that they would cut you off at 1 a.m.
I mean, New Year's Eve (first night my a$$), party would be over at 1.

I think its pretty dangerous, I mean if your in a bar at 4am, you HAVE to be wasted. Boston just stopped the nightowl bus service which used to drive the bar crowds home.
This just means a whle bunch more drunks, even more wasted, on the road. At least at a house party you can pass out on the floor and spend the night.
I guess Im gettin old....

We talked about it at my Alcoholics Are Us meeting last night and we all decided that it might actually cut down on how much we'd drink when we went out.
If you think about it, when you go out at 10 to a bar and know that last call is gonna be at 1:30, you're more apt to consume as much alcohol in that short period of time. How many times do you find yourself standing there at 1:29 with 2 drinks in your hand and pound them with the thought that this is your last chance to get 2 more at last call.?.
Now if you know that you have until 4 am, you are more inclined to drink in moderation. I would have a hard time staying awake until 4 in a bar anyhow, so I wouldn't be there until that late any how and wouldn't have that mentality of poundin em while I can.
