A Personal Mystery: Solved!

This weekend I went up to Boston (unsupervised!) and solved a mystery that has plagued me for months: Bolt Bus versus Megabus. After riding Bolt up and taking Megabus back down to Manhattan, I can say with the utmost of certaintly: Go Bolt. The Megabus was 45 minutes late, the Wifi went in and out and it didn't stop for a break. (I really needed a snack.) Also: what was up with arctic air conditioning? I can't even tell you how many people I heard on the bus say, "I'm only on this because I couldn't get a seat on Bolt."

While on the bus I watched the following documentary about another mystery: The Hope Diamond. Below is the preview, but you can download it for free off of iTunes. If you're a diamond/gem nerd like myself, you will like it.
