Just for shits 'n' giggles, I took a look at Boston.com to see what's news in my former hometown today.

The entire first screen: frickin' Whitey, and the Red Sox.

Oh, how I will *not* miss Boston's favorite news topics.

(First screen of LATimes.com: Al Qaeda, California reading scores, Iraq, Israel, the economy, Martha Stewart, Kuwait, North Korea. The rest of the world, and a local story of actual importance. And Martha. Can't have everything.)
