Must keep an eye on those tricky pandas.

Needham=Mordor. There is nothing nor no one bright in Needham. The beacon of heavenly light streams from Cambridge as always.

Needham is as bright as the sunniest day you can possibly imagine. And the people there are friendly, cheerful, generous, hospitable and articulate.

Last time I was in Cambridge, it was dark. When I was there in April, it rained so hard the Sox home-opener was cancelled.

The melamine thing is awful. Didn't the perpetrators of the last melamine-dairy scandal get executed? Seriously.

This is simple (not a reference to RhkKmk, no matter how apt). Needham is to Cambridge as Hoboken is to Manhattan. Needhamites articulate? If there are more than two that are polysyllabic, I'd be very surprised.

Gpanda, other than to show up and mooch the occasional dinner and use the notebook computer, how often do you go to Needham and with whom do you interact while there? I rest my case.
