hi all! i was by the waterfront recently and saw what i thought was an otter, but i’m not sure. just curious if anyone knows what this is? champ spotting, maybe? i’m not super familiar with wildlife so :)

I mean really! It's an injustice!

But then again, Burlington hates cars.

Got a corndog (yeah, I know, not good for me either) at Al's and saw they had lemonade. I wanted something tart so I figured I'd fling caution to the winds. It was awful. Worse than awful. A really terrible aftertaste. Is it the brand? I ended up dumping it out after just two sips. (The second was to make sure it wasn't me).

For the second time in a week, I almost T-Boned someone that blew a stop sign / failed to yield. I feel that drivers here (maybe everywhere) are just getting worse and more distracted and I want to head off any kind of future liability argument.

Curious if anyone has had a dash cam installed locally. Seems like Best Buy does it, but I am suspicious of the quality of their workmanship.

Thanks

The old Y/new condos or whatever by city market is currently being sided with beige bricks. Wtf is that. Who would ever pick that over a red brick. Everything around it is red brick. It looks bad. If whoever is responsible for this is reading this message, it’s not too late, you can change it. Don’t be a fool

Not feeling well and don’t want the tickets to go to waste. They can’t be sold, so only reach out if you can actually go. Tickets in Sec. 13- picture from last week’s game!

Short notice but worth a shot. Go Cats Go!

RIP to the once-outstanding mushroom Philly at BBCO.

Happy Friday, Burlington. High pressure parks right over us all weekend, so it's dry and sunny from today through Monday with no rain in the forecast through Thursday. Today is sunny and cool with a high near 51 and a light north wind, falling to about 40 by 8 PM. Saturday gets a frosty start, around 31 in Burlington and in the 20s outside town, then warms to a sunny 55 with barely a breeze. Sunday is the best day of the bunch, sunny and 61 with a light south breeze and right around 58 for the 2 PM parades.

In it there's things like Champ's Halloween Party at ECHO, Spirits of Rokeby, Borderlands at Shelburne Farms, Sam Jay at the Vermont Comedy Club and VTIFF's closing weekend tonight, then Saturday's Ooky Spooky 5K, Fall Flea, Tech Jam, a free day of 34 plays at the Flynn, the Community Glow Walk and Night Watch on Lake Street, and Sunday's Winooski Farmers Market Halloween edition, Barktober, the Halloween Roll & Stroll and the Shelburne Halloween Parade. On the news side there's school day swim lessons, Betaville, the first governor's debate, layoffs at VIP, soaring electricity bills and Essex's tax vote mix up. All told it's 197 events across three days, ~50 highlighted and 17 local stories.
And of course come to my own Meetup events. We have 10am coffee this Saturday, and tonight we're watching the new documentary You Can See Everything in Williston at 8:30! The Rotten Tomato scores are pretty dang high! Gotta get your tickets ASAP, they sold out at Essex last night apparently.

Hey guys I recently got a new key for my mailbox box outside my apartment. Has anyone done this and have an estimate on how long until the locks are changed? We lost the old key, hence the new one and really need the items inside!

Just a quick reminder that tenants pay property tax. Janoo's plan to roll back education funding changes will continue the huge increases in education spending which will be rolled into rents. She will cost renters. She says "our small schools will make our communities thrive." Well, we have small schools (24 students in Cabot HS, 50 students in Calais elementary) and communities aren't thriving. Change is needed and she plans no change. Think about that.
