HUB-WIDE—London Mayor Boris Johnson is visiting the region and wants you to know the Olympics are positively smashing: "'It will be like the Big Dig in this sense, that everybody will moan, everybody will complain, and everybody will be gloomy until just before it takes off, when suddenly everybody will be overcome by euphoria,' Johnson told the Herald.
