[Boston-editorial] art?

[Pete Stidman]

I was thinking maybe that we could just put "ART" in the title of the post so that people who click in know its not going to be an article, which is probably what they expect to see or want to see.  If we do that I think it should stay, this ones already fallen off though so it doesn't matter too much.
