It's De-lurking Week! Celebrate it by leaving me a comment if you've never left one before. I know that you stop by, but I want to know who you are, why you're here, and if you have a blog of your own!
(On topic with the whole weight loss thing--Why is bacon so bad for you? I could eat a pound of it!)

One Reason to Love Bawston!
The "Old Hancock" building is topped by a weather beacon with red and blue lights, which use a code to present the local weather forecast, using a popular rhyme as a mnemonic.
Steady blue, clear view.
Flashing blue, clouds due.
Steady red, rain ahead.
Flashing red, snow instead.
Steady blue, clear view.
Flashing blue, clouds due.
Steady red, rain ahead.
Flashing red, snow instead.
During baseball season, flashing red means the Boston Red Sox game has been called off on account of weather.
In October of 2004, the beacon flashed red and blue to commemorate the Boston Red Sox World Series victory. This was the first time the color scheme changed since the beacon was lit in 1950. A new line was added to the poem accordingly:
Flashing Blue and Red, when The Curse of the Bambino is dead!
The beacon again flashed red and blue when the Red Sox won the 2007 World Series.

I'm sure I've commented before, but just in case.

Hey, I'm reading!
Hello, I will go back to lurking now.
Hi, I'm Sasha from "D and Me". I stop by on a regular basis.
Guilty. I visit occasionally. Hi.
I'm a regular reader. And I've commented before, too. But I'll re-de-lurk. :)
I read your blog all the time, but I'm not sure if I've commented before. So, if I haven't before, I have now.
Not sure if this is a delurk or not, but hi!

vic x :o)
don't think i've commented before so just stopping by to say hi :-D
I read :)
I'm not really lurking. You know I read this.
Oh, and bacon is awesome. You could always make a salad and put some Bac-Os on it...they're not real bacon, but they still taste good.
Please do not be like my roommate and make a peanut butter and bacon sandwich. Ewwww. Maybe if you think about that, you won't want as much bacon. Hahaha.
