The local paper
Its not the best written rag, but it allows me to keep up with things going on in my area politically, socially and economically.
Two interesting articles from yesterday:
http://www.metrowestdailynews.com/localRegional/view.bg?articleid=125340
Now, the dress code forbids kids from wearing clothes with logos that could be deemed "offensive", so a followup article stated this girl shouldn't have been wearing the earing at all. Do you think the counselor should have sketched the earing? Do you think this Mom is being a bit silly? Here's a great example of what Dita mentions in her book with things being fetishized because they are forbidden. I'm wondering how many of these elementary school kids even knew what Playboy was before this fiasco. Interestingly enough, this is the school in our old Framingham neighborhood that I used to drive by on the way to and from work each day (the one near the women's prison).
The other one was on a house listing a couple of blocks from where we live (Robbins Street). The article reads "Sun Drenched on the South Side" and the house looks fairly small. Its got 3 bedrooms and 2 baths and a basement in-law with 1 bedroom and 1 bath. The asking price? $595k. Damn! Here's the listing!

(we're in the market, btw -- probably for a small condo or very small house well outside the 128 loop!)

last night, a friend of mine told me about seeing a *busty* eight year old girl with her mother in a store getting fitted for a new bra (having outgrown the previous ones). the idea of someone with the mental development of a child but with an adult's sex drive scares me.
