@knizer The Acro-cats are SUCH a great fun silly show!

Poll results: 17 voters, none of whom elected 'see no evil' while 65% said 'the horns'.

Y'all wanna see the evil, but not speak it, really, c'mon.

@knizer Me and the pups are staying inside and I am watching Deadpool 1&2
@knizer I'm hiding in a library that has air conditioning and good books. (and fast wifi)
@shapr a good reminder/nudge that I have a book ready for pickup at the library. I love the #SomervillePublicLibrary, truly.
@knizer I stumbled upon the Feast of Saint Agrippina in the North End. It runs until Sunday:

VIVA SAINT AGRIPPINA!• 104th Madonna Della Cava FeastFri, 8/9 – Sun, 8/11 On the second week of each August, the North End celebrates the Feast of Madonna Della Cava, which coincides with the festival held in Pietraperzia, Sicily.• 114th Annual Fisherman's Feast Thu, 8/15 – Sun, 8/18The Fisherman's Feast is an annual event that began in Boston in 1910 and is based on a tradition that goes back to the 16th century in Sciacca Sicily.
