Cats
On a good night's sleep, the Catamounts would have crushed Arizona. Maybe next year.

Downtown
So K and I were deep in the south shore after picking up the car from having been serviced at the dealer when the cell phone rang. It was Emmett, calling from work, half a dozen stories up, right downtown. "There's a huge antiwar protest happening right now. Get down here," assuming that I was still at work. How big, I asked. "Huge. Thousands of people. They're headed over to the Government Center area," which is the center of downtown. The radio had instead mentioned a small march that started over at MIT, apparently because it had tied up traffic. We'll look for a real report tomorrow. Update: he had sent this email:

I just saw the biggest peace protest I have ever seen. It was beautiful.
followed by another saying that he was heading over. Of all days for me to leave work early...

Pictures and newspapery story here, although the Globe's links tend to rot after a couple of days.

Update: off I go.
