A social media lurker in the Green Mountains with no cable, no iPhone, and banned from Instagram for no other reason than trying to sign up and to get to 'Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me's' pinned post. Bad Quaker extraordinaire.
Another successful run for our annual #CharlieBrown #Christmas tree. Cost of permit, $5.

All I can say is never complain about schlepping your ski gear to base lodge.

Still gets me every time.
The finale of the great TV comedy show Blackadder goes Forth.
Back then I didn't expect one of the funniest programmes ever to end with a scene that makes me cry every time I see it.
Every single time.

Far more entertaining.
Yesterday in Ottawa. I knew football games were held even in the show, but I didn’t know soccer games did too.

Cellist Yo-Yo Ma performed in the Upper Valley last month as part of "We Are Water," a special series of performances inspired by the waterways of the north.

It was part of the reopening celebrations for Dartmouth’s Hopkins Center for the Arts, which just completed a three-year renovation.

Pastor David Black was shot in the head with pepper balls while attempting to pray for and comfort ICE detainees in Chicago.

I asked him why he feels called in this dark hour to stand up for immigrants.

Please listen to his response. Especially you, Speaker Johnson.
