Here’s an old political cartoon from the Cold War era. It’s amazing how the more things change, the more they stay the same. I can’t even believe this is still relevant, but it is.

The other day, my husband was clearing out his old zip disks and he found one that had all of my old posts from my first She’s Right website. There are 23 entries from July 2002 through July 2003.

This is the time of year when many people are making resolutions to live better in the new year. If you find yourself wanting to make some changes to your financial health, I recommend a couple of personal finance blogs that I have had in my feed reader for quite some time.

Now for a local focus – very local. I have a state post planned for later today, but this one is for the Burlingtonians.
As you know, Town Meeting Day is the first Tuesday in March, so I will be posting more frequently about local politics.
Yesterday, the Free Press had an article about this year’s [...]
