Saturday night video: Vacation movie trailer
I rarely venture to the movies but this might bring me to the movie theater. I loved the National Lampoon Vacation movies from the 1980s. I’m sure many of you may have seen this teaser for the new Vacation movie that opens on July 29th.
Rusty Griswold (now a grown man) takes his family on a road trip to “Walley World” in order to spice things up with his wife and reconnect with his sons, all while reminiscing about his childhood memories from when his Dad took him to visit Wally World. Check out Chris Hemsworth towards the end of the video. It won’t be his rock hard abs that will have you laughing out loud.
Check out Sh*t-faced Shakespeare in Davis Square
Sh*t-faced Shakespeare, by Magnificent Bastard Productions, is the hilarious combination of an entirely serious Shakespeare play with an entirely sh*t-faced cast member.
Side-splitting, raucous and completely interactive, the show has entertained over 35,000 eager theatre goers across the UK. Having successfully completed multiple sell-out runs of the Edinburgh and Brighton Fringe festivals, Sh*t-faced Shakespeare is now performing at the Davis Square Theatre in Somerville.
The one hour performances run through June 28th. Don’t miss out.

Boston’s 2nd Annual Heels for Hope will take place on Wednesday, June 10th at Cathedral Station in the South End.

Are the Franklin Cafe South End days numbered
Late last year Franklin Southie closed and now rumors are swirling that the days of the South End location may be numbered. This listing for 276 Shawmut which includes 6,000 square feet of residential and restaurant space is currently for sale.
David DuBois emailed me yesterday after I inquired about the potential sale and he said, “The landlord has listed the building on MLS. He is wanting to retire and selling all his property. It does not involve the Franklin“.
Considering the success of DuBois chain of Tasty Burger restaurants (its 5th location opens tomorrow at the Back Bay T station) I’m not quite sure what to make of his response – even though I want to believe him. Restaurant owners rarely level with me about their future plans. The Franklin Cafe is a longtime neighborhood favorite, but this neighborhood has changed and maybe the lure of growing a nascent burger chain is of more interest. Time will tell. Anyone with details can contact me at bosguymail@gmail.com.
Provincetown Fast Ferry Groupon from BHC
Planning a trip to Provincetown this summer, or perhaps you live in Boston and know you will be making multiple trips to Ptown? Regardless, The Boston Harbor Cruise Co. (one of the two high speed ferry companies here in Boston) has their annual GroupOn running at the moment. Roundtrip tickets which normally cost $88 are on sale for $58. Grab them while they last – this deal sells out every year.
Gay agenda
I was inspired by a similar photograph I saw floating around on the Internet.
