8 Mile... Highway Detours

First I just want to give you guys a run down of a real good time I had last night. Sev shut down a bar and threw a birthday party for his girlfriend. Shame on all of you who ignored that facebook invite because you thought it was a practical joke. Nick and myself rolled up to Malden representing the south shore and had a really good time. Since Sev was organizing it, we were expecting the unexpected. We got there at about 9 oclock and were hugging moms, dads, brothers, and grandparents. Which was only incredible because the DJ that Sev hired was thumping Birthday Sex in the background RLOL.

The night started like a leisurely walk, jogged on with some vodka tonics, and after some redbull veezys we were in a Usain Bolt sprint to last call.

Nick is off the market but I met 3 or 4 girls that I would marry Hangover style. Everything was pretty standard until the point where I hear the DJ say “I hear we have some kids here who can freestyle so get your ass up here and take the mic”. Oh man, is Sev kidding? Nope this is real. So fast forward through some black kids with graphic tees on the mic, then sev himself rapping lines he wrote all week, and of course Nick and Wolfie are on the mic with mobb deep instrumentals dealing like Buchholz in AAA, well kinda anyway. Im such a chooch but who cares. It was pretty ridiculous and I had a really good time. So yea, props to Sev and happy birthday to Deanna.

On a somewhat related note, Williams pointed out something pretty incredible on our ride home. If you ever try leaving Boston late at night, you’re going to get hit with about 3 detours, 18 cop cars, 20,000 cones, 35 highway dept trucks, and only 1 lane. Picture hitting traffic in the middle of the night, it’s the worst. At first we laughed, then after the 10 thousandth coney cone it got old, quick, kind of like Dane Cook.



Here is the kicker though. We are pretty sure THEY AREN’T DOING ANYTHING. Who’s going to stop them? The cops? Nah man, those guys are in on it. The workers that were actually in trucks were just going forward then reverse over the same patch of perfect asphalt trying to look busy. Those guys must be getting some serious Obama grants. You know the big lights they use to light up the whole road for night construction? We went by one of those and Im pretty sure it was being used to illuminate a poker game between cops and construction workers. Its just unbelievable.
