Among other things, by blowing it on a building in the priciest
commercial district in Boston (right on Newbury St., three blocks down
from the Armani and Versace couture boutiques), which is still under

some kind of spiritualist movement which has since faded away, but
obviously had money to burn once on fancy stonework).
