The type of things aneurisms are made of

Last night I went into Boston to see Henry V put on by the Commonwealth Shakespeare Company. Last year I saw their free performance of Twelfth Night not once, but twice, and thoroughly enjoyed the show (maybe not so much the surrounding company in some cases) each time. I had high hopes for this show and the cast (several members from Twelfth

uh, rte 3 CEASED TO EXIST? do you think this is 'cause it was late at night (for Mass, anyway)? Because how the hell am I getting home tonight then?

Also, the exit to rte 3 is blocked? Fut. but you can get on it from 95 south?

route3 was shut down from the Lowell Connector/495 ramp to what must have been the 110 ramp in Lowell, because when we went around the rotary people were driving both north and southbound. It's nothing too confusing if you were expecting it and it's not after midnight etc. I think it's night time work because they'd be retarded to shut down route3 north during rush hour on a Friday evening

thanks...I'm wondering whether I should be warning my dad or not. But, yeah...rush hour work on 3 or 95 doesn't seem like it should happen...but, then again, we're in Massachusetts

I had the same lovely experience last night as well coming home from my ultimate game - "Doom de doom de doom...aw crap, the exit to 3 North is blocked! Rrrrggrgrgrrrrrgr."

However, I had two things going for me that you guys probably didn't. Luckily, since there's a Raytheon facility on Wayside Rd that has the closest ATM I could have used to deposit my checks when I worked in Burlington, I was an old hand at getting off 95 at that exit, turning around, and getting back on 95 South. (Last night's turnaround was fun because I came off the exit, pulled a highly illegal U-turn in the middle of Wayside, and made the ensuing left turn through a yellow light.)

Then, on the way home on 3, I got off at the 129 exit - you know, where the road still exists these days. :)

P.S. Of course, this doesn't help the fact that about four or five years ago, I was coming home from a friend's house in Braintree going up 93, mistakenly thought I needed to take 95 North to the rt 3 exit from there, and eventually ended up in Gloucester. Oh
