MBTA ferry service might be delayed due to whale in Boston Harbor
MBTA Ferry service could be delayed because of whale traffic. A 2-year-old humpback whale is currently spending time in Boston Harbor. The whale was first spotted two weeks ago. Delays will happen on the Lynn, Hingham/Hull, and Winthrop/Quincy ferries, the MBTA said. Ferries must slow to 11.5 mph when near whales and must avoid being within 100 feet of them. For smaller boats, they must be at least 500 feet away from the whales. Experts say boaters should look for blows, spouts, or bubbles.

Boston Omaha Corporation Just Took 2 Big Steps in the Right Direction
I haven't been thrilled with this unique holding company recently, but the latest developments are good news. Boston Omaha Corporation (BOC 4.08%) hasn't exactly made many investors happy in 2024. It pulled the plug on arguably the most exciting part of the business, one of its co-CEOs abruptly left the company, and to call executive compensation of the past few years excessive would be an understatement. However, as I explain in this short video, two big recent news items should make investors smile.

Boston Celtics fans share stories of how they felt upon learning Kevin Garnett was being dealt to Boston
When the trade that brought future Hall of Fame big man Kevin Garnett to the Boston Celtics in the summer of 2007 was complete, the energy in the city of Boston and beyond surrounding the Celtics was palpable. The storied franchise had endured an extended period of time as a mediocre to bad ball club between their last era of contention under legendary small forward Larry Bird. It did have a few solid seasons in the early aughts, with Paul Pierce and Antoine Walker making some postseason noise, though. But it was nothing like how Garnett immediately shifted the culture and...

Hurricane Ernesto is Gaining Strength: How Will It Affect Maine, New Hampshire, & Massachusetts?
Until recently, New England rarely had to worry about tropical storms and hurricanes. Over the last few years, we have seen that change, though. In September 2023, we had to deal with a pair of back-to-back storms. While those storms had lost much of their strength by the time they reached New England, they did hit us within days of each other. And after dealing with Debby last weekend, we are getting ready to deal with Ernesto this weekend.
