At least we're getting some money back for the Big Dig - Whoops, there it goes: "About $100 million of the landmark $458 million Big Dig settlement will be quickly drained to fix a long list of defects, many previously undisclosed, from cracked sidewalks and crosswalks to failing fireproofing, faulty wiring, and deteriorated joints between sections of roadways."

Heh-heh, "quickly drained." Very clever, Boston Globe.
