Purchase Info Request II

In the vein of a recent post to iBratt, does anyone have information on how to dispell a curse or a hex, from a Voodoo doll or otherwise?  Some may see this as a frivolous request but it is not.  Confirmation that there is, indeed, a curse applied would hopefully be part of the protocol.

100 Year Old Tree Down in Crowell Lot?

Anybody know what happened to the tree in the Crowell Lot around 3/17? Lightning? Wind? I think D&E Tree was on the scene to clean up the body. The kids just got a new piece of playground equipment – 2 tree stumps. While I’m at the Crowell Lot, has anyone noticed the basketball stuck in the tree about 50 feet up?


Anyone Have Experience with VTel?

Our neighborhood in Guilford is beyond the terminus for cable, so we use Fairpoint DSL, which is, let’s say: better than dial-up. It looks as though a newish company called VTel is promoting itself as intending to cover all of Vermont with good broadband, via, as I understand it, a combination of fiber-optic and some wireless technology. They may be making progress on reaching our area. So I’m asking if anyone knows about them, or, possibly, uses their services?  There have been some similar-sounding schemes lately that haven’t turned out well (see the Great Auk story in today’s Reformer.)

Hello everyone,

Thank you so much for helping me with my survey for my last school project. We just started our final project (can’t believe it’s almost over) and would love it if any of you could help by taking this survey. It will take approximately five minutes and your help is greatly appreciated. Feel free to share it with your friends as well.

Thank you!

Care To Help With A School Project?

Hello everyone,

I am currently working on a project for school. I am studying User Experience Design which is the study of consumer behavior and desires to create products and services that enrich peoples lives (and things they actually want to use!) Right now my group is working on a project and we have a short survey (less than 5 minutes). If you would like to contribute by filling out the survey and/or sharing it with your friends. That would be a huge help.

Thank you everyone!

Japanese or Asian Language Groups Around Brattleboro?

Are there any groups in this area who get together to talk in Japanese?  I know there’s a Spanish group, so it occurred to me there might be an Asian group of some sort.  On behalf of a college-age relative who is extremely into Japanese (incuding anime, manga, foods), so I’m looking for possible social outlets.


Where to Donate Clothes in Brattleboro?

My grandson has outgrown a lot of his clothes – they are all of good quality and in good shape. No stains or tears, etc. Looking for suggestions on where to donate them – maybe a shelter? In the past I’ve given lots of clothes to Experienced Goods but have found that they often don’t get put out in the approriate season. I think at times they’re just swamped with donations and things get put aside. We’d like them to be given to families for free. They are sizes ranging from probably 4 – 5 , some size 6.- a little bit of everything- shirts, sweatshirts, jackets, pjs.

Any thoughts? Or, if anyone knows of a a family who has a boy around 4 or 5 who are in need of warm clothes please message me with the info, if approriate. Thanks.


Minecraft-Loving Gamer Magazines?

My nephew is into video games. For those of you with pre-teens, are there any video game magazines that are popular with younger gamers? Minecraft, Sonic… that sort of thing?

If you have (grand)kids into Minecraft, could you ask them for present suggestions for me. Thanks! Any advice is welcome.
