January 8, 2013 What a great program! Kennebec Valley Community College is going to offer the first two-year sustainable agricultural degree. They have the land. KVCC bought a 120-acre farm a year ago as part of a larger deal from the old Good Will-Hinckley school.
Apparently kids need more "variety" today. That is one of the reasons why Fred Flintstone has been replaced by a professional wrestler on the Fruity Pebbles box.

January 3, 2013 For Christmas, Chad's mom, Jackie Hood, gave me the ULTIMATE gift! I've always wanted one and I couldn't believe what I saw when I took off the wrapping paper! AN ICE CREAM MAKER! Oh, this is going to be a yummy 2013.
