Boston Duck Tours
Pitchfork’s review of Babu’s Duck Season
Wikipedia’s list of fictional ducks
Ebaumworld’s Duck Hunt flash game
Duck recipes @ epicurious.com
Duct tape, originally known as duck tape
If you want ridiculously good Italian food for cheap, then Basta Pasta is the besta option. Their paninis, pastas, and pizzas are good enough to be on any North End menu, and apparently, the hand-rolled fusilli is the pinnacle of freshness (will try that next time).
