Subject: Apartment to share in Waverly Sq. Belmont
Organization: Massachusetts Institute of Technology
Date: Sat, 2 Jan 1993 00:20:40 GMT

Hi. My roommate will be moving out in January and I'm looking for someone
who would be willing to share a 2 bedroom apartment in Belmont. Let me
tell you about it.  It's the first floor of a two family house on
a very quiet, safe street in Waverly Sq., Belmont, about three
blocks from the Belmont/Waltham border.  It has two fairly large
bedrooms and also a large kitchen, dining room, and living room, front and
back porches, garage parking and a basement with plenty of storage space.
It is amply furnished (except the bedroom; it has only a
desk which you could use if you need or we could get rid of if
you have your own). If you had any other furniture that would be great.
It's about 1/2 block from the T#73 bus to Harvard Sq. and several
blocks to a brand new, huge Star market.  The rent is $412.50 a
month each plus utilities. The total runs about $450 a month each
(gas $10, electric $15, cable $15, phone $5) not including any long
distance calls; the gas is more during the winter months and less
during the rest of the year, but the average of everything is about
$450 a month.  One month's rent is required as a security deposit.
It will be available in January, 1993 (exact date flexible).

I'm a graduate student in Materials Sci. & Eng. at MIT.  If you
are interested you can give me a call or send me an e-mail.
My office number is 253-0391. I am best reached there weekdays
until about 5pm.  Nights and weekends you can try me at
home (489-2614).  My e-mail address is mlib@athena.mit.edu.

Indeedy, and if you think that three people accurately reflects its
size, you have another think coming. Are you pretending to be unaware
that "when will we see Jay Shuster again?" has been a staple of
conversation in Southern New England for years?

I *do* hope we see you in the next couple of months. Please be

at 89 Kinnaird St (Oh dear, I have a feeling the competition to host
Jay could get ugly).

[For some values of "Boston" -- but I digress...]

Well, I'll chime in too -- I'd love to see Jay again.

Well, that's already three of us -- it seems an obvious conservation
of person-miles for Jay to come here.

On the other hand, just about anywhere in Vermont is a nice place to
visit.

Welcome back!

Odd.  I have a friend in Worcester who makes special trips to
Providence just to go to the Yukon.  I agree with your points; I just
find the kind of a bar that has `guys in leather, older guys' more of a
friendly place than your standard gaybar.

I didn't really mean "underground" I guess... but I only knew of Gerardo's
(which advertises too)  Directions and stuff aren't necessary really,
I just wanted some names and descriptions.... (on mixed ones also)
...and actually I'd prefer to get more info on the scene outside of bars 
but didn't make that clear in my message for some reason.

membership is $40 at door.  it's too late to preregister.

arisia is not a specifically queer event, but it's rather queer

	Hey - does anyone know of any sports leagues for bi/gay ppl in the
Boston or Western Mass region ??

	This summer - I went to RCC a coupla times during the day ; there
were volleyball regulars there and also a bunch of lesbians that were
part of a softball team. Is there a larger organization that serves up
team sports interests out there for gays ??

	One thing I really miss in the gay scene is the lack of interest
in sports. I've met tons of really cool straight (or presumedly straight)
people over the years participating in athletics - its just an awesome
way to meet people and have fun at the same time! 

	Someone else told me about a Rugby League outta the SF BAY area
that has a couple of teams with gay guys in it ..

Jeezum Crow, a fan club!

Well, I've been around, it's just that with over 100 new messages a day,
I can't keep up with soc.motss anymore.  I'm not a whiz enough with nn
to come up with something that will whittle things down to just a couple
dozen messages a day.

And work is a real grind.

And I haven't been traveling much for pleasure.

And I'm buying a condo.  This is really good, as it puts me 40 minutes
south, saving me most of my commute (though adding forty minutes to the
trip to my boyfriend).  It is also very stressful.  It looks like I
will be homeless for the first few days of 1993 (though I have plenty
of places to stay).

Living in town will give me more free time, although I'll be poorer.
And the two great advantages: no landlord, and I'll be warm (no wood
heat, no frozen pipes, no quarter-inch gaps that you can see outside
through around door frames, no living on a dust speck in an ice cube).

A trip to Boston sometime in late January/February (when all the house
stuff is over with) would be real fun.

If you don't mind driving a bit, Worcester's First Night has lots of activities  
for kids, including early fireworks (6:30) and skating at the Centrum until  
about 11.  I've never been, but plan to go this year.  Worcester First Night  
buttons are $8.00 and are available almost everywhere.  Free bus transport is  
another big win for this first night.

*  In Germany they first came for the Communists, and I didn't speak *
*  because I wasn't a Communist.  Then they came for the Jews, and I *

*Then they came for me--and by that time no one was left to speak up.*
