Come on now...you must have heard the rhyme (I'll paraphrase)
"Lizzie Borden took an axe, gave her mother 40 whacks...when she saw what she had done...she gave her father 41"

She was from Fall River...tried...not convicted...no one else was ever tried for the murders.

That's your complimentary history lesson for today...any more will cost you!!!

There used to be a restaurant named after her in Concord, NH. It's where Margaritas restaurant now is. The building used to be an old jail long ago, so they kept a lot of the jail cells, metal bars and all. They have the tables set up inside of the cells.

I hate this job, I hate this boss and ....... arrrrrrrrrrrr. So I guess it's cool for the boss to have the on-call shcedule and not tell anyone. I would think that would be information to pass along to your employees who actually have to do the work. But what woulld I know.

Long story short... I am not going to be able to attend this weekend. I really want to do this too. Maybe some one will want to go again with me? I'm really sorry for the short notice, and the trouble for everyone ( especially Don) but I was supposed to be off.
This sucks.

Hey kiddos...just got back from Battleship Cove...great trip...fascinating...I highly recommend it for those of you who have never gone before. The weather cooperated...overcast for most of the afternoon...mild temps...very interesting later on as you could watch a line of clear skies pushing away the overcast...mother nature just added a special touch to the day.

Special thanks to Big Don for his efforts in planning the event...I really appreciate you stepping up and taking the reins. Good to see Don and his son Bob...Dick W. and his friend Bill along with his son Chip...who have promised to join FTE and the NE Chapter...everybody watch for their signup and give them a big old NE welcome. Last, but not least, as always we enjoyed the company of our fearless leader, Sean and his daughter Squeaky!!!

Those of you who couldn't make it missed a great time. Hope to see you in November!!!
