I miss Tommy C, I miss the Guru, I miss Persky, I miss the Cosmic Muffin. BLM is a shadow of its former glory but it is still here and has some legitimacy left. The slashing of personalities had made me often listen elsewhere, but i still pop in. I have been lucky to have been born and raised with a monster AOL station and then, in moving to Maine, blessed with another. These are rare. They still are allowed by their overlords to play Beatles and the enitre catalog "A to Z"'s and might play an occasional deep cut off of vinyl. Tommy C at least has his show on CLZ and that is the best thing on the radio. I'll enjoy what we have while we have it.

Yes, but not posting here.
Of note, he was on 107.5 Frank for about a week, if that helps.

Why do you say that? Do you know anything about the firing or any Persky gossip?

Reading the full report by the aquarium makes this lawsuit make more sense, at least to me.
They’ve got a ton of compiled info regarding acoustic conformations and visual sightings of these whales and their own info makes it look pretty bad: in the past decade or so the whale activity has been WAY higher in the St. Lawrence Gulf vs the Bay of Fundy + Gulf of Maine by what looks like an order of magnitude. Reasonable gripe against the Canadian fishery, but kinda unjust to lump anyone fishing out of Maine when all the notable whale activity as of late is a long ways off
I dunno, I’m no scientist nor lawyer nor lobsterman. Just a dumbass with a phone lol

Do it online. You get to choose a different mailing address, too.
Disregard, you can't, because your reg expired over 7 months ago.

Yup, the town wants its excise tax BAD. If you can go 12 months and a day though you'll get a fresh year when you re-register it.
Going 5 months or more expired is a class E fine, not a ticket, if you get caught driving it on the road.
edit, months

Once you said that I remembered having this convo with my old boss, same scenario I said oh I think I got the record and he said shamefully actually no... It's me, I made it two years 🤣

WBCN in Boston changed formats and WAAF turned into some bible thumping station.
Fuller/Jeffries, just two local dudes, sold WBLM and others in its group for $63 million in 1999. Perfect timing.

If it was previously registered, they still go by the registration month of the previous registration. So I registered my car 6 months late, and my new registration is only good for 6 months.

not much but if you end up sticking it out closer to a whole year, they might give you a discount (seriously). then just kick the can on next year as well.
