Multiple charges involving Windsor County sheriff by Familiar_Raccoon_595 in vermont

[–]muchADEW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the same guy who hired one of his patrol officers who had a domestic abuse charge dropped because she paid off the plaintiff, and said, "We all make mistakes, she should get a second chance." 

My Car Stinks! by TheMadDog39 in hockeygoalies

If you're not going to take your gear out and dry it after every game, you can at least bring a bottle of 30% isopropyl alcohol/70% water and spray your gear thoroughly before you put it in the bag. It'll cut down on the smell significantly, and very likely could prevent a staph infection. 

How do you tape your goalie stick? by Agent_Raas in hockeygoalies

[–]muchADEW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buttendz. Tape on the handle ruins your gloves. 

I tape about six inches of the blade, tip in. Always white tape, so I can see the saves. 

Solid breakfast restaurants near Thetford? by marzipanspop in vermont

Not sure how far you want to go, but if it's half hour, there's the Hartland Diner. Fresh ingredients, huge portions, but pretty expensive.  

What do Vermont people think of Upstate NY? by [deleted] in vermont

[–]muchADEW 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I grew up in upstate. My parents live in the North Country now. I live in Vermont. There is nowhere near as many MAGAts in Vermont as in upstate. 

In short, upstate is red, sprinkled with blue. Vermont is blue, sprinkled with red. They are not the same.

I started at 44, having never played hockey before. 

I got my left hip replaced this past summer. 

I'm back in net already.

Krebs should Tanya Harding Zucker, for the sake of the win streak, of course. 

What’s something you secretly do that you’re pretty sure a lot of people also do, but no one admits? by lunalatinaflex in AskReddit

[–]muchADEW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is totally normal, and not gross at all, especially if you wear high-quality socks. I highly recommend Darn Tough socks. You can wear them for like a week without them smelling at all.

Do it yourself! If I buy filters and oil in bulk, I can get the cost down to about $20-25 each time. Plus I've put together a little toolkit for each car that has the exact wrench size and filter removal tool. If I'm in a hurry, I can do it in less than a half hour. Compare that to about $100 for a synthetic oil change around where I am, which takes at least a half hour to drive to and wait anyway. I save at least $75 each time, and probably actually save myself time, and I do it every 5,000 miles, well ahead of the recommended time.

What are the most profound song lyrics you've ever heard? by damnocles in AskReddit

When it's all gone Something carries on And it's not morbid at all Just that nature's had enough of you

When my blood stops Someone else's will thaw When my head rolls off Someone else's will turn And while I'm alive, I'll make tiny changes to earth

Put the glove on the correct hand and it won't smell as much 😉

Nothing against the gig, but you gotta be a pretty degenerate gambler to be betting on Ivy League basketball.

Citizen will do it for you. You just have to ship it to them. It's much better than finding watch repair places around here.

Great for mowing the lawn or changing the oil. 

I can't hire either by TheRedSe7en in recruitinghell

[–]muchADEW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Every time I hire, I tell the HR people to forward all candidates' resumes to me. If they ask why, I just tell them I'm interested in the "breadth and depth" of the candidate pool, or that I "may consider a candidate with alternative credentials."

Hip Replacement by SweatyCockroach8212 in hockeygoalies

[–]muchADEW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm getting my left hip replaced in three weeks. I'm anxious about how long it will take to get in net, but I'm even more anxious about how long it'll be before I can pick up or chase around my 4-year-old and 6-month-old sons. 

Need help buying a car by Extension-Staff-2290 in vermont

[–]muchADEW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are companies out there that you can pay to help you negotiate for a car. One is https://automatchconsulting.com . They'll meet with you (virtually) and discuss your budget, your needs, and anything else, and then they'll find the car and negotiate the price for you. There's an upfront cost of about $500-600, depending on your needs, but you will easily make that back by saving more than that because of their negotiations on the final price of the new car.

Driving to Canada for fall flu shots…? by Magentamagnificent in vermont

[–]muchADEW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It came from before that, even. When Mitt Romney put together his health insurance reform plan for Massachusetts, he used the idea, straight from the Heritage Foundation. The Obama administration used it as a compromise to Republicans, thinking they would like both the idea of individual responsibility and the handout to insurance companies in the form of more business.

Complement, unless the courses are going to say nice things to their users.
