You’ll argue it from hell and back because you can’t admit you’re wrong. It’s your ego flapping it’s lips right now. “I’m right, no matter what!”

It's waiting for you to forget it's there and stand under it

Nationalize their businesses. Seize the means.

I’m about 5 miles from Augusta but in a different town, and yes. Several times I’ve seen things coming on Informed Delivery and then they never arrived.

Because republicans still fall in line behind (previously) trump and now desantis and others like him. Laughing stocks to the rest of the world but Republicans stand by it.

If your own business is not doing well, you might consider seeking a job at a local business or even Hannaford or Walmart. Virtually everyone is hiring right now. Adding to your debt load only makes a bad situation worse.

Grew up out there and we swam every summah!

Thank you! This is Jacks Cove, just up the road from Philips (right next to Perkins Cove)

It’s real bad down in Portland / South Portland too.

Very mature response. Please let me know what the made up radius is for news papers. I would love to understand the logic on why Portland to Waldoboro is ok but Bangor to Waldoboro isn’t. So how many miles does it need to be for it to be ok? You don’t even make sense.

Washington County has a bunch of stone statues along the coast from eastport, cutler, machiasport, jonesport, addison and millbridge and I think there's a few I'm missing. My sister wants to go see all of them and I kinda want to as well. We have seen 3 and that's it.

Another one is up in the county up north from Presque Isle to Houlton there's a bunch of planets to see along Route 1 and we tried stopping to them but missed 2 and wanna try to do it again.

In Sanford it wasn’t an elected official. It was a candidate and they caught him real fast. Unlike this Waldoboro democrat who got $14,000, won the election, and got away with it up until today.

Phillips Cove? Just beautiful!

You mean like the guy in Sanford who nobody ever heard about that committed the same violation this past year and is being indicted?

Where is the BDN front page story about that?

It's a problem in other cities as well, not just Augusta. A lot of Maine post offices are short-staffed and have generally been suffering over the past several months.

The best thing you can do is use USPS's Informed Delivery service. It'll tell you what mail is coming on each day. The only problem is that sometimes we'll see what mail is coming and it'll come a day or two later, but a lot of it is junk and shit. Still, it's a good tool to keep tabs on your mail. Easy to sign up, too.

"Affordable" is starting to become a subjective term as the days go by. Now you can't read an article about affordable housing without asking "okay but how affordable?"

Roof rake

That's a pretty low bar for "evil"... I guess we really are "post-truth" where everyone's feelings trump reality...

All utilities have multi-year maintenance schedules and limited resources. Can you imagine if they had to push their maintenance schedule for EVERY layperson homeowner who called in with a "totally definitely serious and immediately urgent concern"? There are branches on lines fucking everywhere and only a small percentage of those lead to outages, and an even smaller percentage to bodily harm.

What's your hypothesis here? You think the people they hire don't know what their doing or how to assess risk as well as you? Do you think the company WANTS outages and infrastructure damage they will need to pay for? Or do you think they just get off on the thought of YOU being in the dark for a few hours?

Get over yourself...

Cool.

In the future, feel free to expound sand if you have nothing intelligent to offer.

You southies are tiresome...

The Victorian Mansion in Portland, Longfellow house also in Portland

Guess it's time for me to throw another Dunkin gift card in the mailbox for my mail carrier. Happily, my mail carrier hasn't missed a day.

Ok

I’m just going to add that not all republicans are conservatives. Really need to get out from under this two party bs and let the vocal minorities have their own space to try at being something more than that.

I asked Versant to address branches leaning on a line. They are evil. They stated the only reason they would come out is if the tree was down and on the line. They are evil.

Fuck them
