It was a rough week in the Q..

Or most anywhere else for that matter.

Also so much for a three day holiday weekend setting the stage for a relatively quiet rest of the week that followed.

First up, the end of meteorological summer was coincident with world of the passing of Jimmy Buffet, the long arguable King of Summer time kicking back and chilling.

Next up was some good news of the week just past: Quincy Quarry was inexplicably let out of Facebook’s penalty box many months after it was put in the penalty box for reasons unknown.

At the same time, the Quarry cannot help but suspect that the suspension was care of a false abuse complaint denial of service hack attack.

Also upbeat was a fun dime dropped the Quarry’s way.

A wicked fun dime.

The dime?

Who does he think he is kidding?
Other than himself, that is …
An email poll

An apparent straw poll facing off an all but absentee Quincy ward Councillor with incumbent United States House of Representative member Stephen Lynch in a hypothetical Democratic primary election distributed by email.

Talk about chutzpah.

No way does a local political slacker and arguably closet millennial crypto Liberation stand a chance in a face-off against a one-time iron worker’s union local president from Southie.

And as for some hot talk news, word was broken midweek by a Boston 25 reporter that the Massachusetts Attorney General had launched an investigation into how a Massachusetts State trooper got off on a house whacking in Houghs Neck.

In particular, the Attorney General looks to have perhaps focused on the Quincy Police Department’s role in the whacker getting off behind closed doors inside of the Quincy District Courthouse.

And as for the cherry on top of the cherry on top of this sundae, recently retired longtime Quincy Police Chief Paul “The Beav” Keenan was the one who both disclosed the Attorney General’s investigation while at the same time asserted that the Quincy Police Department investigation of the house whacking was “appropriate.”

So what, apparently, that the Quincy police incident file was reported as not including any notes of any discussion by police with the house whacker.

Further troubling, it does not appear that the whacker was subjected to a roadside sobriety test nor underwent any of the usual sorts of scientific testing to discern if perhaps he was operating under the influence.

So what also that previous reports indict that the house wacker had driven a considerable distance after he had lost a front wheel on his truck after first whacking a roadside guard rail and so indicating the obvious.
