    Questions & AnswersAny predictions on the outcome of today's Democratic Governor Primary?

    This election cycle has been almost completely devoid of polling, maybe because of the tough economic times.

    Need Free Old Attic Floor Boards?  View Printable Version  
    Saturday, August 21 2010 @ 03:41 PM GMT+4
    Contributed by: AMnookin

    Questions & AnswersWe tore up our attic floor to add insulation, and we have a stack of boards in our garage that would be PERFECT fuel for a sugar house. The wood is untreated and dry with some nails still attached, and could also be used for creative carpenters (picture frames?). Varied size up to 1 ft x 12 ft. Pick-up required. First come first served. Call 257-4146.

    Questions & AnswersCan anyone suggest a realtor for some long-distance "realtying." Have a home up there that I want to sell but would like to do it without having to come back up there. I've kind of lost touch with who is still there and who isn't so any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!!

    Questions & AnswersI just got a "pay-as-you-go" phone recently and am hoping iBrattleboro readers could answer some questions for me. Do you have to pay when you RECEIVE calls on it? What about making toll-free calls on it, numbers that being with 1-800 or 1-888? Does anybody else have them? If yes, what do you like/hate about them?

    Questions & AnswersI have a pretty good CD collection, in part because I was briefly a radio DJ.

    Recently I tried to reorganize it so that artists and genres that belong together are together.

    I couldn't help noticing that my CD collection was two-thirds crap to put it bluntly. Every f-ing small time band I had ever encountered had given me their free CD or in some cases I had even paid for the CD to support the band.

    Swimming Pool Memberships in Brattleboro?  View Printable Version  
    Tuesday, August 10 2010 @ 07:30 PM GMT+4
    Contributed by: Brattlebird

    Questions & AnswersOur Living Memorial Park Pool closes this Sunday! We wish it were staying open a bit longer, loving the swim to end our day.

    It looks like a YMCA opening in Brattleboro won't be anytime soon. Does anyone have recommendations for a family pool membership in Brattleboro throughout the year? I know the Colonial Hotel is one, but we really aren't interested in the spa amenities. Just a swim! Any suggestions would be appreciated.
