I was at home studying for exams (why they schedule them like this I don't know) But just after the Patriots won it was continuous screaming, banging, and horns until about 1:30am. Tricked out Hondas also like to rev their engines a lot. I could see the riot police positioned around the Boston Common from my window. They were there with their Police motorcycles. I didn't actually see any rioting out my window, but lots of sirens and yelling. They also like to destroy the newspaper bins when a team wins. After Boston beat the A's there was paper flying around everywhere. You have to go closer to Northeastern and BU for the really rough stuff. We just have crackheads and prostitutes in the Chinatown area. I'm really glad my truck is in a parking garage and not on street parking. I can just imagine what some greenies, excited about the win, would do to a modified SUV... Jamil |

I'm all for having fun, but it got way out of control. A kid who graduated from my high school in 01 was killed by a drunk driver racing through the streets by northeastern. He was a real nice kid whose brothers still attend my school. Terrible tragedy. |

4 kids have died from my HS, and it's only been open for 3 years. I was friends with one of them. 2 of those kids sat next to me in math class (not in the same year though). It's amazing how many kids die each year out in the small valley I live in. Sorry about you loss Christian, I know how it feels...

Well, "The Curse of '05" continues... Another one of my friends that I've known since I was little died in a head-on colission yesterday. |

Very sorry for your loss. I know this sounds very morbid and coincidental, but another kid at my school was in a very serious accident today and is in a coma. He is not expected to make it through the night. Along with a faculty member, this will make the 3rd death in our school community in the past 10 days. Sad. |

3 deaths in 10 days is unbelievable. I'm very sorry, and my prayers are with you and the poor families of those involved. God works in very sad and mysterious ways. |

My heart goes out to you for the loss of your freinds. I sure hope your schools are pulling in the grief counselors to help the students and faculty cope. Best wishes to you, Jamie |
