Wait until people start quitting their jobs and refusing to move out because they have tenants rights. It will be a mess!

Reply to Challenge to bad, lazy even, story lines the Vermont media helps perpetuate ... by RamaSchneider
I think Balint would have won without the barrage of commercials. Gray was not a very interesting candidate and seemed presumptuous that she could walk right into the job because she had connections. Oh and we were endlessly reminded that she grew up on a farm!

I think you are in love with the concept of Maine. To truly love a place, you have to actually visit and see how you feel about it.

Does anyone believe that Stenger didn't know? I certainly believe he knew!

If you want to be accosted by people asking you for money all the time then Brattleboro is the place for you! Do some more research, Brattleboro is having problems and going downhill fast, lot of businesses closing.

Reply to comment by [deleted] in How much land do I have to buy to register cars here? by [deleted]
Buying some land in Vermont does not make you a resident. You have to state that you actually live in Vermont and that it is your primary residence. You also have to provide proof that you live in Vermont. Owning property is not enough.

Reply to Balancing trespassers with being neighborly by c_l_who
I have a 150 acre parcel, mostly woods and some fields. I kept it open for many years because most people were mostly respectful. Last couple of years I've had way too many yahoos leaving beer cans all over, dead deer carcass's (probably poached) and even a giant ugly couch. Now my driveway is gated and locked and I've had to put up no trespassing signs. At some point it's just not worth it. Too many people abusing the land.

Reply to Pickup fishtailing in snow! by [deleted]
I've had a few really scary spin outs with my F150 where I didn't know how it was going to end. I found that some weight in the back and studded snow tires and still driving very carefully and not getting overconfident is helpful. Also, though it might be obvious, staying off the roads when conditions are dicey, whenever possible.

Mike Delgreco from Accurate Inspections. The guy is very thorough, leaves no stone unturned. Highly recommended.

Reply to Vermont Schools on Fire by LearnerofYoga
It is ridiculous that the Bennington Elementary School has called the police so many times! The school counselors and school based clinician should be much more involved and a school calling the police to handle every discipline problem suggests an incompetent principal!

Reply to What's in Northern Maine? by ThiefInTheNight2
If someone wants to move to Northern Maine just because it's cold, that's not a very well thought out plan. How about visiting there first, spend a good amount of time there checking things out before deciding that is where you are going to live?

It's not a clear good guy with a gun situation. It's a likely drunk guy out of his own jurisdiction, not in uniform and ignoring police instructions kind of theory!
utilitarian_wanderer t1_ixdcoxd wrote
Dumb off duty cop in a different state should have immediately dropped the gun upon command. There is always time for explanations after the scene is secure.

This makes no sense, there is no Rockingham police force. There is Bellows Falls police. Town of Rockingham contracts with the Sheriffs Dept for police coverage.
