Those are the spots that also usually have some great lunch deals… like two large slices and a drink for 4-5 bucks.

Buys only the cheapest ingredients from Sisco and supplements them with local supermarket brand when it’s on sale. That was the local Italian place I dishwashed for when I was 15 and 16. Nothing but the cheapest ingredients but people ate there like it was flown in from Italy.

Yeah that’s not murder. That’s trying to look too hard into something. Things like heat exhaustion or hypothermia come on subtly and slowly… they trick the brain, you get confused. When family is like no way, so and so would’ve called for help… happens all the time. The person doesn’t realize it’s happening. Like when it happens on Mt Washington… he never called for help, but they found him bootless in January and looking like he laid down for a nap. “Investigators say they expect Tramonte died of heat exposure and that foul play is not expected. Tramonte’s friends say the details surrounding her death don’t add up because she always carries a phone and would have called someone if she was sick. “She did not die of heat exhaustion,” Gerardi added. “I just know it.” An autopsy is being performed to determine an official cause of death. The officer who was with Tramonte is said to be cooperating with the investigation.“

Yeah I don’t think that’s an oyster… but if you crack open hardened bear scat you can find berries in the middle. Not quite the same thing.

Good like Vermont seafood.

He’s dressed like DIT on an 82F day when the dew point is 48F. Shivering.

Ok yeah those prices and pies fit. $25 for a large specialty pie.

Haha, more like you walk in and the entire Stowe High School graduating class is employed there.

Ha it snuck up on us how it is too with fast food. We don’t get it maybe once every 6 months when traveling or something… driving to CT we stopped at Mc D’s and every meal is like $10. I ended up going to Subway where you can at least still get a foot long for under $10 and feel slightly better about eating it lol.

Resort town prices here for sure… that’s not a pie shop like on a beach destination town in DE? Piecasso is the name here in Stowe and the place absolutely prints money. You’re right though, the pie is good so people pay it. And big, they say large pizza, it’s like a manhole cover in a box. Personally I’ve always wanted a Dominoes or something… see those large pies with toppings for like $7.99 and I’d be down with that instead of $25+ with tax whenever the wife or I want pizza.

You got 3 pizzas for only $50? For the last decade here a large pizza is $20-$24. Is this not what people pay for pizza?

Some crazy flash flooding has closed I-70 west of Denver for a while. That’s a big deal out there.

But the dew point.

They need a day off.

These two are a match made in heaven. Need a cage match, just lock them in for 90 seconds and see what happens. DotRat is bloodied and out cold on the mat, while Phin limps around holding the cage walls with a Pfizer needle sticking out of his ass-cheek. DotRat sacrificed himself to try and jab Phin.

72/50 right now and roosters strutting around like the real cocks they are. What a day after an inch of rain last night.

With a side of Randy Marsh playing the politicians.

“Uhm we think you should get the vaccine.” ”I told you several times it’s a matter of principle and my rights. I’m not getting the vaccine. ”Oh so you need an incentive?” ”No I just told you I’m not getting it even if it’s 100% foolproof. I feel comfortable with the risk of COVID and it’s not worth giving in to authority.” ”So you want to be entered into a lottery for a million dollars if you get the vaccine?” ”No, I just told you…” ”But you might lose your ability to go to TGIFriday’s on Friday evening. The days of the week will lose all meaning without a stop at TGIFriday’s to end the work week.” ”I told you I’m not getting…” ”What if we give you a puppy?” ”No god dammit what don’t you…” ”Free money, I’ll give you money.” ”No I’m not getting it even if you give me ten thousand dollars.” ”What about ten thousand and one dollars?”

This whole thing is like a South Park episode where neither side understands the other and they just get more and more ridiculous.

It goes both ways and it’s both disturbing as a way to say “told ya so!” Vaccinated love pointing out unvaxxed who are sick or dying… meanwhile the unvaccinated also come off as getting pleasure from hearing vaccinated folks are getting sick and almost cheer for vaccine complications. Both sides using people’s health to prove their points…almost gleefully.

It’s a vibe, too. In the mountains, the cool air just hits differently, like it’s expected on those dry dew point days. Cool nights and warm days with large swings happen no matter what season.

I still remember back in like junior high when someone told me what those were called... like huh? A “wife beater”? Yeah I mean, it makes sense. Ha, it's hilarious...that was just the way it was. If you ever saw a COPS episode for domestic violence back then, every single one of the suspects were filmed with that type of undershirt. Usually in like a humid Florida trailer park .

Shorts and hoodie for life. Flip flops occasionally. Should wear them more, very easy and low maintenance.

Manchester VT area getting another 0.8-1.4" so far. What a wet few days. Took the dog out and we are 0.47" so far. Best is by far south and east again.

The vast majority are with you on that. And been living our lives. COVID goes away quick when you just go about your day, ha. If it wasn’t for this thread to keep us informed… there’s life happening.
