I still have a lot of NYCC material to put up, but I won’t be posting it today as Governor Deval Patrick has chosen this particular moment to complicate my life by giving a Major Speech tonight in my city. As I work for the mayor, today will be a busy day. In the meantime, here’s what everyone else is talking about:
