A scourge on society. The gambling is bad too.

I hit a sink hole on a state road a few years ago. It did a number on my front suspension. The hole opened up due to a water main leak. The town encouraged me to get the state to pay for it. The state just said "no". I never would have thought to try to get the state to pay for it on my own.

Have they (or any other girls team in VT) ever forfeited a game before because there were, say, some larger girls on the other team?

One wonders if it will result in a smaller number of stolen catalytic converters compared to other park and rides. Probably not.

Not to pick on you, but it shouldn’t rely on a “feeling” (even though I feel the same). Why can’t they just update a website with the current status of the program? If they’re overwhelmed and out of money, getting the word out might save them the hassle of a lot of extra emails and phone calls.

I owned a series of 4 Fiestas. The cheapest one I got for $175, the most expensive one was $400. My parents had an Escort which was a problematic car.

Reply to comment by Happy_Confection90 in Moving to NH this week…more questions (unanswered so far) about ticks by fighting_gopher
I want to say they were “dog ticks”, but I’m not certain.

A couple of years ago I went for a walk on a trail in Lebanon, NH. The trail went through a large field of grass but the trail had been mowed and also driven on by ATVs. The grass was only 4-6" long in the trail. There was a sign at the trailhead warning that it was tick season, but in all my years in New England I never happened to be in an area where they were a problem so I didn't worry much about it.
When I was at the end of the trail I turned around and headed back and noticed a couple of ticks on my shoes. I started looking everywhere on blades of grass and never saw any.
I was freaking out when I got back to the car as I was finding ticks all over me. I took my shirt off and found a few. I got in the car and headed back to work. I had to stop twice to get out and brush off ticks that were crawling on my pants and shirt.
I stripped down in the bathroom at work and found several more ticks. I went over my clothes carefully two different times, pulling several ticks off and finding more on the second inspection. A few were already embedded in my legs.
I went back to my desk and answered the door. The delivery guy noticed a tick on my ear.
I was in a Zoom meeting and felt two more ticks on me during the meeting which I removed.
After the meeting I went in the bathroom and stripped down again and found a couple more.
After I got home the wife found one more on my back.
I had removed somewhere around 40 ticks. These were larger ticks which supposedly don't carry Lyme, but it was still freaky and I will never hike in that area again!
Since then I do tick checks after hiking and only occasionally found one.

Anyone else annoyed by the phrase "low wind chill"? Seems like it should be a high wind chill. This is the stuff that keeps me up at night.

I like this idea. There should also be protections in place to keep it as affordable housing.
