Hello, dad, hello mom - I'm a bbbbb-bad idea! (W/ apologies to Lita Ford.)

In the process of clicking around from the Grub St. 100 sammiches thing, I took a look at Grub St. Boston, the which, despite being the spawning ground of the Cod, does not get much attention here. It maybe should have stayed that way -- we get a "First Look at Cherry Bomb, Bringing Bacon Cupcakes to Brighton." Several objections:

2) Bacon cupcakes in 2100, zeitgeist-wise, are a little bit like starting a a club that swing dances on Razor scooters in 2005. Combining two things folks are tired of in one thing is an Ugg boot w/ stripper heel as dining concept.

3) Cherry Bomb? The Cod cannot think of a name that offers a firmer guarantee of a staff w/ crazygirl bangs and Sailor Jerry tattoos who discuss upcoming burlesque performances among themselves while you try to order a cup of coffee.
