I’m a huge lover of the Cape. I grew up going down there for a week every summer. West Dennis is amazing, but Provincetown is absolutely fantastic as is Truro. You can go to the National Seashore and literally feel like you’re in Heaven.

If you’re waiting at a regular stop (not like KP or the train station) you may need to wave at the driver or be really visible. By contrast, it is polite, though not necessary, to shake your head to let the drivers of buses you aren’t taking know that they don’t have to stop.

Oh! I hadn't heard, and I am in a couple of non-profits, and kind of keep an ear open for this stuff.

Dang, then I have to agree that Cicilline must have known the opening was coming. It adds to the credibility of the suggestion that he's miffed over being squeezed out of the Dem leadership in the new house.

Even ignoring that his upward mobiility in the party was effectively blocked AND his party lost control of the House, I don't think it's any mystery why a person would leave a job paying under $200,000 a year for a job that will pay north of a million.

It'd be more confusing if a person didn't make that move.
