This Sochi place I've been hearing about recently sounds pretty nice. Hotels, free dogs, chemically treated water, live sports events, and wonderful vistas. I don't know what you guys are so mad about I'm thinking about moving there so see you gently caressers later.

Russian construction workers and home improvement crews frequently do a prank that never fails:
if their foreman abuses them too much or refuses to pay the promised salary, they take a raw egg, pierce it with a needle and mortar it in the wall or the ceiling. A week later, when the workers are back at their homelands or in other town on another construction, the egg rots really good and to get it out the owner would need to tear down the whole wall.

Migrants that worked in Sochi were obviously treated like poo poo, and the cossack-loving governor is fond of ordering crackdowns on them, so I am anticipating some egg or bottle surprises.

My proud state of Massachusetts blew $14.6 billion dollars to build a tunnel that promised to cut 15 minutes off our commute. In the heart of a one party state (democrat and sadly I lean left) the public was bilked for billions of dollars so people's kids could get cushy bullshit jobs working in the offices of their families construction companies while the actual construction workers got screwed over by Massachusetts proud crime families who forced works to work for substandard pay, forgoe overtime and often not receive the meager pay they had been promised.

Fast forward and their have been structural failures that have caused death to people mearly driving through and has had little to no effect on commuter times.

This isn't the thread for this but commute times would have been much worse had the tunnel not been built. The number of cars on the I-93 corridor has increased a lot since the old expressway. Most of your points stand though. I remember all of the Back the B.B. signs (bay bridge).
