      MECHANIC FALLS — I'm looking at my clock and it reads 5:30 p.m., but it's actually 6:30 p.m. even though technically I don't have to "spring forward" until 2 a.m. Does anyone really wait until then? Probably one of those by-the-book-stickler-for-detail types who does everything according to the rules, of which I am not one. I hate Daylight Savings Time.

      SOUTH WOODSTOCK — Our condolences are going out to the family and loved ones of Jim Hooker, Lily Paradis and Martha Flint. Love and prayers to each family member.

      Girl Scout cookies are in; please make arrangements to pick your order up. As usual they are very delicious.

      Many are sick with this awful flu/cold bug that's going around. Get well wishes to those of you who are still down with it. I was down for 14 days with it and believe me it is nothing I want again.

      MECHANIC FALLS — Dyed in the wool Mainers are complaining. They're complaining about the height of the snow banks. They're muttering about frigid temperatures, plus, they've had it up to here with the potholes. Therefore, if a true Mainer is complaining about the weather conditions, then it's official: It's been one rough winter. I wouldn't know. I've only lived here almost half my life which makes me as close to being native as a kumquat. To make matters worse, I hail from that flat place a little over 100 miles south of here where all the bad drivers come from.
