Thank you, Governor Patrick, for the firm directive to stay off the roads during the snowstorm. Thank you to Mayor Menino for putting a courageous, warm face on Boston government despite the needs of your own continued recuperation.
Most of all, thank you to all the hard-working employees of the MBTA who communicated clearly and managed expectations well, and who worked all night shoveling snow so that, ahead of schedule, the T restored downtown service, enabling planned events to be held, despite expectations to the contrary.

It was all good up until that last paragraph.
Communal?
Is this a parody?
Notice how Devil's threat of jail time and a huge fine becomes a "firm directive"?
I suppose a hanging would be "serious consequences".
Yup, here is more of the wonderful Mayor:
"By Monday evening, Menino apologized to those residents whose streets remained impassable."
What a guy!
Of course, the Devil wanted to imprison and fine those who had the temerity to attempt driving on those unplowed streets.
