Goodbye Al

By


      Let me preface this by saying I've loved Al in Green in White both times. He brought so much to us and even became the first big time free agent to sign here. That first go round he did it with some nice players and a young JT and JB. Getting us all the way to the ECFs only to lose in seven but quite an accomplishment. Then he left for money and a situation that didn't fit him or his game. He made a stop in OKC and we brought him back where he not only help lead us to the Finals but was here when Banner 18 hit the rafters for all this I thank you Al. Yet... I think this move is about the money and a team no closer to a ring than us. Now mind you new ownership is cheap and been cutting costs all summer. So I'm sure it was an amicable split, with that said it's going to be a long season for the Green and White as we navigate no JT for the year. I hope JT takes his time before coming back so come next year we can make a run at another Banner. Thanks for everything Al especially Banner 18.

A sorrowful farewell to Kitty's Restaurant (North Reading, MA) as a family tradition

By
  Time to say "Goodbye" to Kitty's Restaurant - my   family's destination and tradition for six generations and more than 80 years. My memories of Kitty's go back to the early-1950's . I would accompany my dad and grandfather on fishing trips to the Ipswich River in North Reading, Massachusetts - followed by a visit to the restaurant on Main Street. In later years, my wife, Linda, and I would eat there with our two kids, Marc and Lisa - and years later - with our two grand daughters - and still later - with our great grandson, Carson. Author and family at Kitty's approx. 10 years ago Kitty's never disappointed. The drinks were big and well-made . The food was terrific - as were the portions. The service was exceptional and we became well-acquainted with the waiters and waitresses. It all worked so very well for many decades. My grand daughter, Courtney , was particularly fond of the restaurant. She was born with cystic fibrosis , and during her fr...
