I scream, you scream, we all scream, for ice cream

Apparently, some Cambridgians were so eager and starved for their favorite Central Square ice cream, that they actually banded together to raise more than $30,000 to help Toscanini’s pay the Massachusetts Department of Revenue delinquent taxes — taxes they owe dating all the way back to 2000.

Toscanini’s has been closed — keys taken away by the state — until today that is. While the Toscanini supports were ecstatic, reader’s of the website http://www.boston.com/ were mixed on this “noble” gesture.

Personally, I find it ridiculous as well. Why should a business owner be excused from paying taxes that ALL of us have to pay??? Very annoying…
