Oh, boy, Marjie, you've already become famous in P-Town and you haven't even moved in yet! People can be such assholes so I say ignore the 192 posts (and probably more coming!). Never get in a pissing contest with skunks!!! You did the right thing.....that barely hanging to life huge tree was just waiting to plop a huge dead limb on an unsuspecting passerby which, of course, would have started an entire new post about the murderess of Commercial Street :) You go girl!!!!!
oh there is way too much to respond to in this treatise: one juicy item after another! All I can say is that it is delightful; it inspires rage; it is inimitable. But: a "tree warden"? Is it just that I've never had to call one?? Does that excuse that I never knew they existed?? I could easily start swearing just thinking about them pursuing you this way, but not in your forum here.....(maintaining decorum you know). Well done.
Living in Somerville will be good practice for P-Town. Everyone in everyone's business and a moral indignation buttons the size of the former Soviet Union. My advice: never, never, never say anything about biker lanes.
Another post that cracked me up. You do have a way. I'm sure you also had quite a way with your complaining neighbors. A good reminder not to criticize or be judgemental until one knows the full story.
This post, like many others you’ve written, improved my mood. You demonstrate an irreverent, but still respectful and compassionate, approach to describing yourself and the people in your community/the world. A dead tree is a hazard, but people want to scold before they know what’s up. Courage!
I first had linden tea in an extensive tea assortment given to me for Christmas one year. I like it a lot too. Wish I could remember where I found it locally.

It’s always nice when strangers tell you you’re wrong with no information or context. Or any part of the responsibility.
Great stories as always.

So will we get a follow post about the fight amongst all the neighbours for the wood for their fires?
If there are no takers I’ll put my hand up for it…I have a trailer…
I think that Vizzini was too busy watching that “thing” behind the DPR to remember the 3rd warning; although it should’ve definitely been added.
Maybe as well as a follow up post about the wood you can write about how live with all this notoriety. I have ambitions and will be taking notes.
Wonder how people would have felt if it took out those lines:)
This was great, Marjie. Barbara Rushmore and the judge sound like characters!
