Asked about why he pulled down his pants on camera, the man said he didn't realize he was on tv or that there was a protest occurring.

It's gonna be an interesting summer.

At a City Hall press conference this morning, Mayor Walsh said fireworks complaints in May were up 2,300% over last May. He then emphasized that was not a typo - the city got 650 fireworks complaints last month, compared to just 27 a year ago.

Walsh then recalled his days as a youth, when you could just go down to Haymarket to buy fireworks - and you wouldn't start setting them off until July 3, unlike today, when Haymarket has resumed its role as a place to just buy produce and the nightly barrages begin in May.

If you ask the right guy the right question I think you could score damn near anything at Haymarket.
