From Benoit Square; Fairhaven, Massachusetts, in the 2011th year of Our Lord. Photographer’s note: The above picture was taken on the morning of Christmas eve 2011. In the process of taking this picture and a few others, I heard the beeping of several car horns on the road behind me. Turning around “to see what…
ABC6 has posted video of the news story in which I appeared, last week, about pensioners who make more than they did as employees. It’s too bad the reporter didn’t come back an hour or so later; a shot of me trying to lift the 25′ wall that she filmed me framing would have been…
I’ll be on the 5:00 and 6:00 evening news broadcasts on ABC6 talking about my analysis of public pensions that are higher than the salaries from which they grew. I got the impression that I’ll be presented in opposition to the pro-high-pension rally that the unions are hosting, today.
I’ll be going on the Helen Glover Show, WHJJ 920 AM, at 7:45, this morning to talk some more about hybrids and pension reform in general.
If you’re near a radio from 12 to 1 p.m., today, tune in to 99.7FM/630AM WPRO. I’ll be appearing on the Dan Yorke show to talk about pensions and (no doubt) various other topics of interest to Anchor Rising readers.

Patrick Laverty has long been a regular participant in our comment sections and has been blogging at Another RI Blogger. Other than…
For the record, I didn’t intend to scale back quite so drastically or quite so quickly, but in a variety of respects (mostly having to do with various responsibilities), summer ended early. It didn’t help that it took me until last night to get through the long-awaited novel A Dance with Dragons, by George R.R.…
Many thanks to the Pawtucket Time’s Jim Baron for his kind words and solicitation on behalf of Anchor Rising yesterday in the second part of his “Politics as Usual” column, selfishly pasted below in its entirety. It means a lot not just considering the source (from the mind and pen of one of the state’s…
