Best of Boston

Hey Boston people -- have you voted in this poll?

Things I care about:
Art Supplies: I wrote in Artist & Craftsman Supply. It is never on here, and I do not understand why. If someone cares to enlighten me, please do, but I like them a LOT better than Pearl's across the street. The people are more friendly and more helpful. The ambiance is more inspiring. I always thought Pearl's was the be-all end-all of art supply stores -- until I visited Artist & Craftsman Supply.

Public Art: those musical chimes at the Kendall T station are actually on this poll. Maybe if they are voted Best of Boston by Phoenix readers -- again -- someone will make sure they are maintained in working condition.

Local Cause: Tansgender Rights in MA.

I wrote in All The King's Men for Best Theater Company and Best Dance Performers because there is no spot for Best Drag Troupe or Best Comedic Theater Company and they deserve to win something, dammit.

I also wrote in The Neighborhood for Best Gay Night and Best Lesbian Night because 1. Gunner e-mailed a mess of people asking us to, and 2. I want more mixed-gender queer nights. The Neighborhood wasn't especially great the one time I attended, but it's the principle of the thing.
