Enough that I wear orange while I am gardening lol but I support it

Moxy and Cava, two tapas restaurants 18 feet apart, both are good, but one is great.

If moxy is a birthday party, Cava is a wedding

I live in Lee.

I don't have a God complex.

I am God.

Why do I believe they did? Well, as a tiny ISP trying to sell competing DSL on wholesale Verizon copper in 2007 (and failing at it because of their monopoly), the joke we made at the time was that Verizon was terrified a Democrat might win the 2008 election and do something nuts like mandate broadband for everyone. And Maine/NH/VT were the fastest way to lose on that deal, so they sold them off and laughed all the way to the bank.

It might be less money to put a human on Mars, than to trench the granite state.

It seems very reasonable that each house will have its own relationship with the reliability of the electrical grid. Many of us live on towns with one feed, on 50 year old side streets with grand arching limbs as a deep forest canopy, a chain made entirely of weak links. Others live in multiple dwelling units 1400 feet from aggregate supply lines under the street. Any two random people from this fine state can have completely opposite experiences during a heavy winter storm like this, alas.

The shed needs to eat more fiber

Any professional daring enough to share their expert perspectives on a social media platform, with the goal of appeasing anybody, is going to combine the passion of their craft with the feedback of people who have none.

With your successes, there will become a game of identifying your failures. It feels amazing to point out someone else is wrong, the reward exists and some people collect it.

Engagement is the onramp to burn-out. As one professional to another, I encourage you to find ways to throw all your fan mail in the trash. I win arguments at work all the time but I have never won a single argument on Reddit.

I dunno, first time. But I had to wait three months so maybe the demand is high

My vet is doing my dog in April, 1500 bucks, but it's about 35 minutes from Portsmouth

Modern architecture looks like a PDF file.

Am I celebrating or hating? Well, I'm at the 50 yard line, myself.

most solar is grid-tied, so it'd be easier to just crank up the delivery rate to get that money back ...

Sure, you can get that rate. You just have to move to a new address first.

Ab asino lanam, a donkey has no wool. Friendships in NH are born in kindergarten and give way to time and entropy - never rebuilt. Friends, split into people who are dating, split into people who got married, split into people who had kids ... but we never rebuild after we divide.

Ask yourself this, if you were in downtown Boston, how would you find some friends your age? If that's already a challenge, you're going to pull your hair out doing it up here. If it's obvious how to do it in downtown Boston, then how logistically expensive would it be to start there and slowly work your way backwards?

spending your life trying to guess what a lava lamp will look like is about as good a use of your time

i went for a single year in like 2000 or 01, the C++ teacher was also the Spanish teacher

we had to do "heads down" cause the class was being hyper

you can finish this story literally any way you like, it'll be accurate cause i am from Claremont

This wont help OP but I've taken to cutting them town with 6 feet of stump, and then after 2 or 3 years I just pop them onto a strap and pull them over with the jeep. It's very cheap. A lot of backbreaking work, too.

A variation is to make a 12 foot a-frame with 4x4s, and then drive them up instead of over.

someone makes a roof rake that splices a slip and slide plastic liner under the snow .. the snow instantly slides off it. so you are only exerting the force to insert the plastic and not as much to pull the entire snow out

that painkilla is my #1 favorite portsmouth

one drink there is like two drinks most other places. they are very generous pours

I grew up in a suburb between Punkershire and Balloch, near an Amtrak station and a tiny airport.

this is probably unpopular to say but those folks were up in 40mph wind on Christmas Eve getting my power back online so I could watch family guy reruns and avoid my family, and I'm feeling like most of the value on my power bill is actually in the delivery fees...

they have this one area that's all antique bathroom stuff, and for the life of me I cannot figure out what one of the items is. It's like a very tiny bathtub, or a huge bidet. Someone said they were antique sanitorium bathtubs, where an 1800s nurse would strongarm someone into the thing and hose them down before chaining them to a bed. I'd love to find out if that's true, because I might need something like that for my work-from-home office.

there's these bands of 'zones' across the USA, and as the weather gets warmer, the zones drift north. Trees and plants are assigned to a zone, and if you stick to your zone, you should be less disappointed by them dying or underperforming.

You can google a picture up, just search for "USDA Zone Map" and voila, you'll pretty much get 90% of it in 10 seconds or less.

I've been feathering in higher-zoned saplings here and there in the (increasingly reasonable) chance that we're headed for zone 6a and up here in the NH seacoast area
