Default That's him!

he just started last year. Julian Underwood. Really small world. Do you live near Woodstock?? He and his wife love it there as there's so much to do. They both run bike ski and have two young boys. They actually just started building a new house and when I was there a furniture maker named Charles came by with an Audi exactly like yours. An English guy.

Default Charles Shackelton?

my wife brought our son, who at 8 years old is a HUGE history buff, in to see Julian, who has shared all kinds of really neat stuff with him. great guy!

We live in Pomfret, next town to the north from Woodstock. I graduated from that school... My parents ran a Deli in town for 15 years..

Woodstock is a good school, but has a big problem with drugs right now..

Default it seems any good school has drug problems, at least ones in nicer towns

That's wild you've met my brother.. He enjoys Woodstock high. He started as a teacher in NYC then out in aspen CO so he sees all types.

I think that was Charles' name, good guy.

Default I see the same thing outside of Burlington

Just this morning, had to NASCAR two old ladies driving 15mph on my 4 mile trip to work...on clear stretches of road.

People are idiots in the snow everywhere, even in VT.

I did see the neighborhood RS4 driving around yesterday while shoveling. I think it might be Ben or Jerry's.

Default I passed a BMW X5 on the access road last night and got high beamed for it

The speed limit on the access road is 35mph and the touron was going..... are you ready for it?..... <b>7</b> mph! I could barely even idle in 2nd gear without rear-ending him.

I passed the guy uneventfully and with a wide berth, so when he decided to flash his high beams at me, I figured that meant he wanted me to stop in front of him and then cover his poor excuse for an SUV with snow.

Default So did you? The best thing to do for morons like that is just stop. Then floor it...

they'll be sitting there stuck, and you'll just go skiing.
