    If only the SEC, the State of VT, the US federal reserve, the the UN, the History Channel, and everyone else had paid close attention to your statements on a ski forum this all could have been avoided!!! What were they doing instead? Don't they know that the essence of international finance is...

    Cannon Lover's Thread

    At 9:15 Wednesday night the NH House overwhelmingly voted to reinstate free skiing for our seniors at Cannon. The House Ways and Means Committee determined there would be NO increased revenue by taking away this privilege that's been on the books since 1973.

    Percentage of Injuries

    Our small circle of skiers at Cannon suffered: Broken shoulder (mentioned above), 2 ACL tears, 2 broken thumbs, major thigh bruise, and some other painful but non-reportable impacts. I bailed early many days because I felt like conditions would lead to injury. So it's anecdotal but I'd say...

    More likely that you just have really GOOD luck. Considering that the issue is big enough to result in a couple of class-action lawsuits and a recall, it's not just a couple of people with bad luck.

    Seems as legit as any other make-believe reason somebody has to dress a certain way.

    I want to love the 2014-15 Subaru Forester

    The 2014 has been fine since. Sounds like you have the exact issue she had. The frustrating part is that it is clearly a well known problem, yet the dealers and Subaru HQ pretend that it isn't. The same is true with my starter issue. From day one (new car) it wasn't starting properly. I had...

    Wait, which is it? Did JD 'accept with compromises' as you say above? Or did he not, as you said just prior to that? And is it $4mil or $3M?

    Did you go there to pitch them on your idea that if Snowboarding were considered a religion they would have a constitutional case? I think it's a brilliant idea and you just may be the one who finally changes the face Alta.

    Agree 100%. Subaru customer service really sucks. I had a starter issue that was an even bigger deal. I can't believe the lengths I had to go through to finally get fixed.

    I want to love the 2014-15 Subaru Forester

    My 2013 Crosstrek has $60K miles on it. I've owned it since new. Occasionally and randomly it goes from completely full oil to almost empty oil instantly. I have to always carry oil just in case. The dealer shrugs. My Mom's 2014 Impreza has $30K on it. She's owned it since new. Starting at...

    Man, it sure is quiet around here

    The FB messenger app/feature is like mainlining the Internet into the vein of your personal information. There has probably been no other app more implicated in snagging your identity.

    Surprised that nobody has mentioned Wildcat's quad.

    This. Like other people have mentioned, I have a couple of fake accounts in case I want to access info that's only on FB. But I would never put my own name on there.
