It isn't used to fix anything in MA.

MassHealth is amazing as long as you can find a doctor that takes it. During covid the spouse lost their job, my income went down and we moved to a little higher income town - the child was put on MassHealth. Covered every single thing, not one cent of payment.

And the multiple lies he told investigators. He’s done, he’s locked up and not going anywhere.
I’m just glad the boys are safe.

Brattleboro area. Seems relatively civilized.

That’s awesome. My uncle has his originals but had them refurbished. They look like new. The guy told him this is the last year I’m going to pass them so my uncle fixed them. Lol

Ok. Be better and stop using “Massholes” then.

Original green plate or did you need to have it refurbished?

My uncle had his refurbished. Is yours original or did you have to have it fixed?

Dude, I think you may be taking this a little too seriously. Poking fun at other states - especially New Hampshire, the Northeast’s equivalent of Florida - is a time-honored tradition.

I'm no lawyer but that seems like a lot of evidence against the husband to me. Did they do forensics on the blood found on the knife? And did the husband have to explain what that blood was there for?

Maybe cleaning the house was just really high up on their list of New Year's Resolutions. /s

It’s typical tribalism and labeling.
Tribalism makes those people put them-alike above others.
Labeling makes them wash the humanity of other people and mark/group them using some nasty word, e.g. some lefts calling some rights - “nazi” and rights responding with “commies”. Fun fact- in both cases most don’t understand the meaning of the word they use and when questioned why they call those ppl like this quickly get lost.

You may start to feel differently, once you start paying income taxes and find out that so much money collected in our state is used to benefit those states that frustrate us.

Can confirm, I spent a few years in AL and every time it rained there was a car on the side on the road on its roof because no one would think to check their tires to see if they are safe to be driving on.

You used to be able to get cell phone numbers with 617 area codes back four decades.

Reply to comment by _violetlightning_ in Anyone here old enough to remember Mass having one area code? by Fisk75
i love that! i've had the same cell number for 20 years, and i guess that will probably become more common now that numbers are portable, but it's just not the same thing.

Agreed. Ever been to Atlanta? They have 8-lane per side highways and it still grinds to a standstill.

I remember when calling my grandmother in Springfield (from Waltham) required an operator. Then we got Direct Distance Dialing and my precocious sister (four years old) ran up the phone bill calling Grandma. Before that the operator made her get an adult on the line.

Considering the police are lazy self-righteous fucks that have the blue flu every time there’s even a sniff of reform/accountability most laws in this country are unenforced, particularly ones linked to crimes that entitled white people commit.
What do you call that? Systemic racism.
