I think I miss the seclu­sion of the Brook­line and Southie work sites. Don’t get me wrong: I like talk­ing to peo­ple, but I don’t like hav­ing to stop what I’m doing all the time just to do the P.R. dance. When you’re work­ing just off the side­walk of a busy 4-lane road with heavy pedes­trian traf­fic, you don’t have a lot of options.

“What’s its name?”

“Unfor­tu­nately it doesn’t have a name. We just call it the car-boat. Inspi­ra­tion never struck.”

“Oh! It needs to be baptized!”

Seems like every­one has some idea of what to do with it.
