Obeyed

Reader Kim found this broken and neatly disposed of carcass at Faneuil Hall in Boston.

Where the wind gets off scott free

Roisin's third corpse received its death sentence outside Boston University's Law School Tower. Witnesses say the defense presented a weak case.

Sitting out this round

Roisin spotted this delinq pondering its future outside Boston University's Student Center. We're thinking Liberal Arts major.

Pick one

Convenience, Value, Soaked.

Boston broken umbrella correspondent Roisin went on a hot streak earlier this week. Here's her first of three.

Hi-dee-ho, here I go

Lookin'for my missin' piece.

Reader Nicole found these partners in Harvard Square. Looks like they have some talking to do.

Cozy

Cupcakes and generic perfume, now there's a party!

First-time reader Nicole sent this to us from her commute home in Chelsea, MA.

Fashion police

Oh because you look so much better in a mortar board.


Good luck to all the newly minted Boston College graduates who are no doubt better prepared for the real world than this fella. Thanks new friend, Bill!

Depression hurts

Prescription abuse
is a serious problem
So is getting soaked


Another quick reaction from Roisin at Boston University's campus. And oh how we wish we could get a zoom on that label.

Fancy meeting you here

You're out of water
I'm not keeping out the rain
How draining for us.


First-time sender Roisin happened upon this scene on the very tidy campus of Boston University. Great eye, thanks Roisin!

Bricks and stones

May break my (dry) bones
But 'brellas never shield me
Truth hard to handle


Reader Kim sends this lonely fella from outside her apartment in Boston. Great eye, Kim!

Get a room

These two randy little buggers were sent in via cellphone from reader Kim in Boston. She interrupted them fraternizing in an unnamed corner in the North End. But the real scandal is that this is the second submission we've received of abandoned fancy golf-type 'brellas and we're pretty sure we didn't receive the memo. Will check spam screener.

Thanks Kim!
