Whatever doesn't fit elsewhere, you'll find here. We'll
tell you what is going on behind the scenes and take the podium if it seems
appropriate. This is where the opinions fly and problems bubble up. You are
invited to send a contribution, and if we're in the mood, we may even print it.

TAKE ME TO YOUR LYING LEADER
Will America make it to November? With politicians spreading distrust and hatred
in an already contentious electione, who wins? You can't trust the candidates,
they say. You can't trust corporations. You can't trust your friends.

You know it’s one of "those days" when you find yourself reading some tacky chain email letter instead of getting your work done. And why not? It’s a glorious day in New England. Tourists are sucking up the perfect weather and you – the native -- are pounding away at the back-end of a web site in a dark room with the shades drawn.

 Your great- great- grandparents
didn't know the half of it
Monorails whiz overhead. A subway from Ogunquit Center drives underground to

Shuffling a 90-year old deck
can deal a surprising hand
When I was in second grade I started piano lessons with a woman named Mrs. Pond.
Her house in Grafton , Massachusetts, with its dark Victorian parlor was not far
from the schoolyard, so I could walk there and then home after a private class.
There is nothing much to the memory now besides a deck of cards that the teacher
gave me, perhaps because I was sad. Our family was moving to New Hampshire and
I did not want to go. |

HERE WE GO AGAIN
Created in 1997 even before the dot-com frenzy, this regional site has not changed
much since the initial appearance. All that changes today when the "new improved"
version goes online. This could be the re-start of something big.
