Sorry You Were Stabbed, Where's My Train?

No sooner did my friend Meems assure me that my stretch of Red Line was the best ("You don't get any unwashed drunks falling in your lap on the Alewife to Downtown stretch"), then I read in the Boston Globe about a stabbing at Park Street. In true Boston fashion, the story mentioned the impact on the commute before reporting the condition of the victim:

"A male was stabbed aboard an MBTA Red Line train yesterday evening, causing delays during rush hour, officials said."

The good news is that he was close to Mass General. Unlike many Red Line commuters, he is expected to survive.
