Sweet Talk

From the brain flow of Paste's Editor At Large:

Some nefarious music hounds from Decatur twisted my outsized ego into creating a dialogue littered with opinionated recommendations and myopic rants. Therefore, to put a smidgen of decency back into nepotism, I have stolen the title "Sweet Talk" in homage of my father who had a weekly sports and leisure column of the same in the early 70's that was syndicated in several small town newspapers in the land the gods made great, New England (sans Connecticut of course). Luckily this space will focus more on sporting leisure, my favorite kind.

Our loyal readers like to keep us posted on the coming and goings around Sweet Talk's homebase while I'm "at Large" playing music critic. Not surprisingly, they feel the best way to stay abreast of the local crew is to read the Gloucester Police Blotter.

If you are lucky enough to be featured in the weekly who's who, you infamously become, in typical Masshole parlance where "R's" go to die, Glostah Blottah Foddah!

Thanks to Will W. for this gem from last week:

Police were called to Centennial Avenue at 6:35 pm Thursday on 
reports that somebody was riding an air mattress down the street.  
Police arrived to find a man with a homemade hovercraft powered by a 
leaf blower.  He told police it was a prop for the Fiesta Greasy Pole 
events with a Jetsons theme and he was testing it out
.

Yes. These are my people!
