Definite Maybe
I got through it and I hope you did too. It will go down in history as the biggest “maybe” snowstorm so far this century. Having had many experiences with killer “maybe” snowstorms here in…
Waiting Game
A few weeks back, I was in the waiting room at my doctor’s office. It was a busy afternoon with about nine other folks trying to pass the time waiting for their name to be…
A Serious Issue
Have you seen my oversized political mailer I have been using to promote my current campaign for governor under The Flatlander Party ticket? Chances are you didn’t since we only had a hundred and sixteen…
More Scratch
As biennial candidate for governor of New Hampshire representing the Flatlander Party, I am as committed to the education of our children just as much as the next guy…uh person. Of course, there is no…
Get Used To It

Breaking The Curse?
I was recently asked if I thought “The Curse Of The Flatlander” would ever be broken. I had to stop in my tracks. It had been a longtime since I had been reminded of…
My Plans For The Fourth
