I rememer my last Buzzy's meal.

3 in the morning, desparately in need of food, on a
bicycle, wearing a Campagnolo cap and yellow&blue Avenir
fingerless cycle gloves, trudging back through Beacon Hill
from a long night of malfeasance in the CAD-lab, making the
Charles Street detour (the Harvard Bridge, even though it
tried to kill me once, before the renovations, was always
more convenient than the Longfellow, though the arch of the
Longfellow built valuable hilling skills and the quads of a
god) only because there's Buzzy's under the T, next to the
jail, over on the light-traffic side of the circle.

Fish sandwich, no longer fried (as was it all in the mid
70s when I had my first Buzzy's experience--an order of
fries that came out as deep-fat-dipped halves of new-
potatoes--while looking for change for the T--ahh, the
fleeting vicissitudes of a young teenager during
dime-time--to ride to Harvard Square, which then had the
freedom-imbuing smell of distant, burning pot...) but nuked
until incandescent.  Nuked cajun-fries and chemocatsup (the
runny, orange stuff).  Frozen-animal-fat shake (in the mode
of McDonald's).  Served by persons who were born in Boston
but spoke no English.

Major Carter rode up the beach and discovered, to his
horror, Buzzy's, half-buried in the sand and still serving
the current version of the cheapest possible legally
prepared food (blackened bananas whapped once lightly on an
artificial rock, one expects); he growled through grinding
teeth, "they didn't BLOW IT UP!"
