Stowe Reporter probably uses AI instead of people

I shovel my own driveway, but your declaration that most don't have someone plow their driveway is absolutely bullshit

Ok ok, you're right. Was it related to the spate of arson fires that happened a while back in Stowe? That was really odd, and can't believe he could evade everyone like that

Are you sure they were caught? I don't remember that happening

If you insist on being daft:

There are two groups of people, some saying one thing, others saying the other. I'm not saying anyone is saying both simultaneously. And OP made an observation, they didn't comment on the phenomenon. Quit being smug. It's ok to comment that people are being total wusses about this. I witnessed plenty of it over the past few days, hence my comment. These people weren't discussing the existence and meaning of the drastic temperature swings. Again, you're just as wrong as I am, you ass

Yes, some people are saying both things. The original post didn't take a stance. You're just as wrong as I am, buddy

It seems to be about neither of these scenarios, but rather an observation

I remember this too.... Because we were fascinated by that whole throwing boiling water into the air trick to watch it instantly turn into "snow". I think it's all the hype around these cold snaps on national news and social media that has everyone forgetting what the norm always was

Not sure why the downvotes. Not a native Vermonter here, but been here long enough to know and remember that long stretches of subzero or single digits were always expected and normal. In fact, if you mentioned how cold it was, Vermonters were quick to tell you that it was normal and to buck up. Although the added wind may not be a regular thing, I have to agree with your conclusion that folks seem to have a short memory and people seem to be going soft. They never used to cancel school for several inches of snow, either....

Better yet, if you're here for a month, bounce around to a few different places and hotels. And if you have the tires, think about driving to mad river or sugarbush for a day to ski and chill. Have you looked into Jay Peak. Bit out in the middle of nowhere, but maybe that's what you want. Every thought about a day, or a few, in Montreal?

Boy are you going to be mad if there's no snow in the roads when you're here

Drop your gear. Let your foot off of the gas instead of mashing your break. Break and stopping are the enemy. Remain in control enough to not need to be breaking much. Give yourself plenty of time to stop, and ease into it. Don't jam on the break. Going is the easier part, momentum is your friend. Feel the road and take your foot off of the gas when in doubt. It's the slowing down and stopping that'll get you

I think the point is that they might as well put some effort into it and still make the click bait really good, not just throw together some shit and be happy someone followed to the site. Whether it really matters or not, it still makes a difference, and you might as well not suggest you don't give a shit. It should be a bit better than good enough if they really give a shit about projecting a good image of the city and aiding with tourism in Baltimore

Yes, mate. Innit

At least it's not Stowe!

No you're right, but that's exactly what I'm saying. You need to have local people employed for success, but given the current situation, that's pretty much impossible. It's not their fault, but rather unfortunate circumstances

That's why it's necessary to hire locals and people already there, but in this work environment, that's proven to be futile

Portland microcosm

Been in VT off and on for many years, and also lived in PDX for a while. Over half the population of VT seems to be out-of-staters at this point

I'm involved and engaged in our local school system, though my schedule doesn't allow me to run for a position on the school board. I am, however, referring to the fact that the Scott administration doesn't particularly value a strong public education system, and I am very much opposed to Dan French. I would hope a different governor would see the value in supporting better pay for teachers and working to reestablish a strong force of quality teachers throughout the state. 10+ years ago, Vermont had a very good public school system. Beginning before Governor Scott came to office, the quality and reputation has been steadily declining, and I know, first hand, of several long time Vermont educators who have gone to NH or changed fields entirely because of frustration with the direction of things.

Imagine if we weren't watching our education system go completely down the tubes
