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.

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

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
