Best way to get to Logan from Arlington?
New here. That is, both new to the LJ comm and to Massachusetts. So pardon what might seem like a newbie question... anyway... I have to get to Logan Airport next week for a business trip to Washington, DC. I don't have a driver's license, so driving's not an option even in a Zipcar. I originally considered taking the T, but I've confirmed that my employer will reimburse me for taxi fare-- but I don't really know the various companies' reputations, as a relative newcomer. So, does anyone here have any particular preferences as to taxi companies or shuttles to get from Arlington to the airport? | | Saturday, February 11th, 2012 | 12:47 pm [42itous]

giving blood: two local opportunities coming up
This Thursday Sept 29, Arlington Town Hall (730 Mass Ave) will be hosting a Red Cross blood drive from 2pm to 7pm. The Red Cross website implies that donors will receive coupons for 50% off admission to Six Flags. If you can't get to the Thursday drive, you have another chance on Saturday Oct 1, at Calvary Church (300 Massachusetts Ave) from 9am to 2pm. This drive will reward donors with a $10 gift certificate to EMS, plus a chance to win a cruise. I've never given blood before, but I plan to do so this Thursday. | | Thursday, September 22nd, 2011 | 9:53 pm [42itous]

 This morning I walked over to Hardy School on Lake Street to watch a team of volunteers (headed by the school principal's husband, who is a master carpenter) put up a Japanese-style gate in memory of the victims of March's earthquake and tsunami.

arlington in the news
last time Arlington was in the national news, it's because our local gun stockpiler was issuing credible threats against members of Congress. This time it's because one of my favorite singer songwriters got pulled off a plane for flying while brown. Why can't we make national news for something nice? If you like folk music and you don't know Vance Gilbert, you should go listen to some of his music; he's fantastic. And he's playing acoustic at the Regent on October 14. | | Saturday, June 25th, 2011 | 10:58 am [snoopymel]

Seeking 2 bedroom
Just thought I'd put the word out that my boyfriend and I are on the look-out for a 2 bedroom apartment, $1500 or less, small dog allowed, August 1st or September 1st. I know it's still early! Happy to talk further if anyone has any leads. We're open to the idea of using a broker, but would prefer to try By Owner at first, mostly to save the fees. Thanks!
