Boson, Massachusetts

  A Boson man has a harrowing story to tell after getting lost for seven days out on the land near Big Blue earlier this month. Robert 'Bob' Johansen left on foot to go deer hunting on a clear weekend afternoon, and had already seen several deer, when the weather quickly turned foggy. He got disoriented and lost. He was following what he thought was the sound of shots being fired at a nearby family camp, but in fact was the echo of the shots in the East Blue Hills, so he headed in the wrong direction. "I had with me a hand crossbow, darts, no food, and a knife, and I also had a lighter. But I had dropped it so I had no fire starter to make fire with," he told this reporter. "Well, I had some snacks," he admitted.  "A Snickers candy bar and Hostess Ding-dongs. But, I ate them before I really knew I was lost." He had only brought a can of Pepsi to drink with him on the hunt. After two days on the land, he said he fell to his knees ...

 

  Boson MA: Reversing course mere hours after reopening their doors, cinema giant AMC immediately reclosed Thursday following an incident in which 7-year-old movie attendee Emma Pearson puked all over a movie theater chair after eating too many Sour Patch Kids. “Due to unfortunate circumstances involving an exuberant child, two full boxes of delicious, sugar-coated candy, and a luxurious reclining theater seat which is unfortunately and temporarily coated in multicolored vomit, we are forced to shutter our theaters until further notice,” said CEO Adam Aron, who expressed regret that AMC staff failed to prevent the child from consuming half a pound of Sour Patch Kids and an extra-large Icee before the opening credits of Trolls World Tour appeared on screen. “The issue was compounded when the child partially threw up in her popcorn bag in an effort to contain the spew, only to trip and spill it all over the aisle. We at AMC cannot in good conscience allow moviegoers to ...

  AUGUST 18 – U.S. capitalism is in the midst of a triple whammy crisis – economic, social, and public health. Inspiring massive protests against racism and cop terror not seen in their size and scope since the 1960s have set this nation’s cities aflame day after day, and have spread internationally. The historic protests are occurring against the backdrop of unconscionable government delay, deception, ignorant happy talk, and anti-scientific incompetence. Official public health malpractice has driven the confirmed death toll from COVID-19 to over 160,000 – underreported by as much as 35 percent according to researchers from the Yale School of Public Health and Virginia Commonwealth University – and inexorably climbing. Every day we wake up to check out the grim statistics of how many tens of thousands more cases there are . . . and how many mo...

 (Reuters) After the failure of the Boson City Council President Ema Strickland to halt the annual summer gathering of motorcycle clubs from across Massachusetts Southern Shore numerous events and rallies were held across Boson.   Motorcycling Research Symposium opened on Thursday, 13 August 2020, with experts presenting on cutting-edge advancements in bar fight weaponry.  Some worried that allowing the bikers to bring cases of beer into the event to drink during talks and slide presentations was asking for trouble. Others said it was all part of the ambiance.  “What really stunned me was seeing how far we’ve come with analysis of, say, the hurt you can put on some bastard using a broken pool cue versus a shattered Jack Daniels bottle,” said Dr. Alex  “Dog Breath” Wallace, one of the nearly 500 leather- and bandana-wearing intellectuals of the motorcycling field who attended this year’s symposium to exchange data on spitting a mouthful of Old Milwauk...

"I think they were a little exessive. He had already lost a lot of blood, but they kept wailing on him."  Britany Reese was tragically discovered by police several hours later bludgeoned to death outside her apartment building.  28 year-old Clay Foster, the mentally challenged in...

  11 Aug, 2020 04:41 / Updated 13 hours ago   State Police and Massachusetts Department of Public Health officials showed up at a Mrs Boson beauty contest on Tuesday, 11 August 2020, though it was not their appreciation for beauty that drove them there, but rather an order to shut down the event due to the presence of more than 50 people. The contest was held at the Off Ramp Hotel's convention center Tuesday evening. The event featured local beauties, their families and friends and other spectators seated in the ballroom.   The pageant was apparently already underway when members of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts Department of Business Licensing arrived, accompanied by State Police. When a voice via a loudspeaker notified attendees of the police officials’ presence, the unsuspecting audience erupted in applause, which was short-lived, however, after the goal of the surprise visit was announced. Officials said that the event could not continu...
