Dr. Cunningham, when will UNH start offering an extension course in Bigfoot studies? Or is it more of a Keene State style of program. Even Plymouth went and got all universal. It time the youth start learning the necessary life skills to function in a state over run with Bigfoot’s.

I highly recommend anyone that skis/boards wears a helmet. I almost died in a snowboard accident riding the side of a trail early in the season, hit ice and got thrown into the woods. I wear a helmet religiously now the new ones are low profile, lightweight and will save your life.

I have been with Granite State for 10 years and have no complaints except that they recently closed the Seabrook branch. Closest branch to me now is Candia which is 30 minutes out of the way. It looks like North East has a better presence in the seacoast.

You might want to ask your local plumbing/electrical supply house they would likely know of women in the trades in your area.

Paying a lawyer to get the arrest expunged is the easiest option. Depending on the crime all anyone has to do is wait a set amount of time before submitting for expungement. I had a criminal violation, waited one year from date of sentence and filed the paperwork thru my lawyer. It removes everything from the state police records including the arrest. If there was no conviction should be a relatively easy process. Misdemeanors and felonies have a longer waiting period, some violent and sex crimes cant be expunged. OP should definitely use a lawyer, my buddy did it himself but its a pain in the butt and you probably need to take a day off work. Lawyers do this everyday.

After watching this war in Ukraine unfold I am 100% not afraid of the Russians.

I just read through some of the recent Select board minutes for Brookline....WOW, unfortunately the type of childish behavior that many of these board members exhibit is fairly common in small town NH politics. Select boards wield far too much power for elected officials. There are no qualifications to be a select board member and often in small towns people run unopposed, same with state representatives. I used to work in a town on the coast right on the border, everyone knows it, select board members were always getting involved where they don't belong and creating major issues and liabilities for the town. I wouldn't expect the knuckleheads running your town to be any different. If you want to message me I can help you look up your well drilling records filed with the state, I would also do as I mentioned and inquire about your occupancy permit. But as everyone else has said you really need a lawyer and don't waste your time dealing with the Town you will likely get nowhere because they know very little about hydrology and actual laws. Small towns sub out all engineering, legal, and usually only have a part time building inspector that they share with other towns.

Someone in the town planning board/dept approved an occupancy permit for these houses. You need a working water supply and septic/sewer to obtain an occupancy permit. If you are on town water and dont pay your bill your water gets shut off they can eventually pull your occupancy permit and condemn your house for health violations. I would get a copy of the occupancy permit from the town and potentially inquire with the board of health.
