dancerjodiIn a discussion of Waltham, I thought of Mr. Big Toyland. Here's a neat article about it:

My favorite quote is:
"Waltham is a tough town. It's got attitude. You don't want to mess with kids from Waltham, they'll knock your lights out. Moody street embodied this attitude."
You'd never know it to look at Moody Street now of course, but mess with any Southsider and you'll find out ;)
Brian and Jen never got to go because "it was too far to Waltham". I used to walk down the 7 blocks down on my own (after stopping at Johnnies for some candy that I'd buy with my allowance).
Neener neener neener! :)
