That's funny, Jesse. I wonder if it's true.
On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

According to this article, it's not illegal to be publicly nude in Vermont. Huh.
That's good to know.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
The best quote from that nudity-in-VT article:
"I would suspect that if it were OK, you'd see it in Boston," he said.
Yeah, Lee, I dunno.

Did I miss something? Did Boston move to Vermont, or is the guy just that dense?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
How many days out of the year is it warm enough to WANT to be publically nude in Vermont?

From what I understand Boston traded nudity enforcement rights to Vermont in 2004 for 934 gallons of maple syrup in what has become know as "syrupy nudegate" scandal.

Boston is just the closest place where people Know How To Act, I'm sure.

I'm not sure what he was trying to say, but it seems like it'd be a variant on a Boston-is-more-something than we are. Usually it gets the evil liberal label, but this one I just can't parse.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
According to this article, it's not illegal to be publicly nude in Vermont. Huh.
Now I'm wondering if it's legal in Vermont to be in public with no skin.
I'm also wondering what's wrong with my brain....

Lobster shippers find a creative way to get around the new airline restrictions: [link]
Clearwater Seafoods used to add frozen gel packs to live lobster boxes when preparing a carry-on for travellers looking to take home a taste of Nova Scotia.
That stopped on Aug. 10, after British police said they foiled a plot to blow up planes flying from Britain to the United States using carried-on substances.
The Canadian Air Transport Security Authority reacted by banning almost all liquids and gels in carry-on luggage on flights within Canada and those to the U.S. and Britain.
To get around the new rules, Clearwater started to vacuum-seal bags of frozen vegetables so passengers could once again carry live lobster.
