NEWT RN
From the Mass Pike eastbound in Newton, I can see a sign for a company called NEWTRON. Yesterday morning, I noticed that the sign has lost it's 'O'. Apparently, the building is now ready to be occupied by the former House Speaker once he completes his nursing degree.

Ah, signs. So much fun. There was a Dollar General store near where I used to live. At some point the last three letters no longer lit up, so it became Dollar Gene - all those junk genes that no one really wants, for just a dollar. Slime production, vestigial wings, nonsense genes - what a deal!
Eventually the sign got fixed - all but the last letter. So it became Dollar Genera - get an entire genus for a dollar! I dreamed of shelves of poison ivy and jellyfish, mosquitoes and kudzu.
But alas, the "L" at last was lit, and the biological possibilites extinguished.
