Good point, I knew it had some Dutch origins so I had to look it up:

Unilever was founded on 2 September 1929, by the merger of the British soapmaker Lever Brothers and the Dutch margarine producer Margarine Unie

I think the OTC stock is the one traded on the Dutch exchange which is why I thought it was Dutch.

Unilever is a Dutch company

Maybe. Or they over extended themselves and are trying to cut back expenses, which isn’t shady. Typically you budget based on projected revenue and profit, if those go down, you don’t have as much money anymore and you start canceling projects.

I’m pretty sure due to their financial situation and layoffs they’re re-evaluating their brick and mortar strategy. I wouldn’t be surprised if they either sit dormant for a while or close all together.

I can’t speak to subsidies but they could be part of a federal opportunity zone potentially. I doubt they received anything specific for these stores.

I’ll second Azúcar for cocktails. Pretty solid.

High beams are pretty useful in the dark and curvy roads off Rt 2 in Sudbury / concord

Weird, when I was in school it was definitely end of May or early june

It’s March, isn’t Prom in June?

Sometimes it’s worth hiring a lawyer for these sorts of things. Crazier things have happened.

I’m sure a good lawyer can find a way

Just shop around. If you’re doing a VA loan though there’s not much shopping to do, they have very little leeway in the rates.

Sheep farming. Almost all of New England was clear cut for Merino wool.

From Wikipedia:

Merino sheep were introduced to Vermont in 1812. This ultimately resulted in a boom-bust cycle for wool, which reached a price of 57 cents/pound in 1835. By 1837, 1,000,000 sheep were in the state. The price of wool dropped to 25 cents/pound in the late 1840s. The state could not withstand more efficient competition from the other states, and sheep-raising in Vermont collapsed.[39] Many sheep farmers from Vermont migrated with their flocks to other parts of the United States.

I’m surprised by this because typically police officers are required by their department to show up, quite literally it’s their job. Not only that, typically they get paid overtime to show up to court. I haven’t heard of this happening in many years.

Constitutions are meant to be changed

Because that’s what the law says.

Imagine you’re an 85 year old land owner with 200 acres of wooded property. How hard / easy would it be to post every 400 feet? It would be pretty hard I’m sure. It’s not a cost thing.

Fair point on the increased traffic. Of note I saw a Delta livery at Hanscom on Sunday, thought it was out of place, but I suspect it was for maintenance or something.

Unnecessary for who? Someone obviously thinks they’re necessary

It would be incredibly convenient if there was some commercial traffic out of Hanscom

A Peruvian restaurant might sell Capybara meat

I think you got your answer but I’ll add that it’s really hard to fix broken power lines under ground versus if they’re above ground. You have to disable huge sections of the power grid to perform troubleshooting and identify the broken lines. Then it’s a huge pain in the ass and takes a long time to pull the lines and replace them.

Do you know how to use filters on Zillow?

let me show you

Welcome to New England where people have been building houses since the 1600s, there’s not a lot of new ones.
