Quincy Quarry News personnel out and about enjoying a sunny spring weekend day came across a bit of surprise while pounding the pavement in search of news about Quincy.

OR . . . maybe commission some sort of statue to stand there. Seems that the mayor is statue-happy.
City Hall needs to start fining the sh*t out of those caught violating the keep of the f*cken grass signs.
Jules,
Two problems. One, there are no keep off the grass signs. And the other, Quincy Quarry suspects that Mayor Koch just may have finally run out of family and friends to hire. At least not any willing to take the gig at the salary that should be paid to a lawn monitor.
