Quincy Quarry News Weekly Fish Wrap: All quiet along the Quincy waterfront.
It happens.
Not often mind you, but it does.
Plus, this week’s 2022 midterm elections pretty much sucked up most of the media oxygen even if in-state as well as relevant local ones were foregone conclusions.
As such, the low lights of this week were both few as well as also lowly.
For example, Quincy Quarry exposéd how it clearly appears that the City of Quincy replaced a fatally whacked tree with what looked to be a dead sapling from a pool of also looking to be dead saplings stockpiled on the periphery of Pageant Field in Merrymount Park.
Is that a watering bag or an IV bag?

Then again, with the annual fall leaf drop well along, the planted but still looking to be dead sapling will provide the impression that the whacked tree was duly replaced until next spring when Quincy Quarry will be circling back around to check if this sapling is sprouting new leaves.
Speaking of saps, Quincy Quarry News covered the unveiling of the replacement statue of Abigail Adams crafted by a Soviet-era trained Russian sculptor who now lives in Italy.
The new statue supplants the engaging as well as evocative statue of Abigail with a young John Quincy Adams that was artfully crafted by a well-regarded Boston sculptor and which long as well as prominently graced old Quincy Square but the square has also since been replaced by Kim Jong Koch Plaza.

Even worse, and as pithily noted in the comments to Quincy Quarry coverage on the unveiling of the statue by a Mr. Rodin, the new statue is pretty much a copy of the original statue, albeit without John Quincy.
Further on the downside, the new statue was a considerable expense given that the City of Quincy already had the beloved pair of statues of Abigail with John Quincy and the other of John Adams.
Also a downgrading, the new statue’s location is pretty much an out of the way afterthought as well as banally staged.
Ignored or dissed by local TV broadcast media?

In any event, Karma looks to have come a calling: Mayor Koch’s reputation appears to have proceeded him as it would appear that no regional broadcast video news outlet accorded him with an interview clip for inclusion within any of the video coverage of the unveiling.
In short, only in the Q …
That and tough luck Tommy.
