A pretty brisk morning here in Boston, with ice on the sidewalk by the used car dealer (first thing they do everyday is rinse the cars).
At the bakery, two men, one wearing a baseball cap with a Patriots logo, chatting. The other asked if the hat was enough to keep his head warm.
"No, not really, but it keeps me warm right here," he said, gently touching his heart.
. . .
If there was any need to prove that Boston is a baseball town first, last, and seemingly always, the first day of spring training brought out the Red Sox caps. You don't see many Pats hats or logos at all this far into the year.
And not only do the Sox caps not keep your head warm, they don't help with any other organs.
