Taxis? Taxis???

Sheesh!! Boston has a perfectly good (subsidized, no doubt) mass-transit subway system called the "T" (once "MTA"). It's faster and much cheaper than taking a taxi, even if it feels ever-so-slightly grimy and you have to have at least two (2) brain-cells firing to navigate it successfully. You might even have to walk a block or two.

On my last stay it cost $25 to take a cab from the airport to the hotel. It cost $1 to take the train back to the airport.

But then I try to watch out for my (and my employer's) bottom line. I don't pretend I am one of the ruling elite, zipping about in my yellow limousine (by Checker).

You may be too young to understand this, but is Charlie still riding it?

I agree. I too took the T from the airport to a hotel near Hynes Center (I was paying my own way). It was really inexpensive.

Did you read the story a few days ago where Boston subway riders are now subject to random, warrantless searches of their person and property, apparently without probable cause or reasonable suspicion.
