According to this Wikipedia article the Nestle Cafe is living on borrowed time. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nestl%C3%A9_Toll_House_Caf%C3%A9

How long has that place been in Derry? I never noticed it until last month, and granted I only go to Derry for concerts but I drive by there once a year and hadn't spotted it before.

Unfortunately, you're not crazy. My furnace broke in February, and unfortunately I didn't realize until the next morning that the tension rods-held shelf in the tank stand collapsing earlier that week had unplugged the tank heater. Just having no heat for 24ish hours killed 1/2 of my tropical fish.

I'm rooting for your fish pulling through

I don't think it merely borders on malice. The cops admitted they didn't bother to check if the shelter in Manchester even had a space for her. Given they not only took her over state lines but dropped her off nearly an hour and a half away, it feels like they had the same intentions as people who live trap rodents do when emptying traps: drive them far enough away that it's too hard for them to find their way back.

Not really in New Hampshire (but yes in many other states). NH state law says that towns and cities must base the tax assessment no less often than every 5 years upon 90% to 110% of market value, and market value is what comps and appraisals use.
