So here’s the irony about school sports: it totally throws the pod system out the window. So why bother separating kids anymore? EMS already had community spread before break sooo what the hell are we doing? #btv @GovPhilScott #vted

Dave's Corner 💭
At the beginning of the new year, I put three marked pieces of paper under my pillow. One represents good luck, one bad luck, and one neutral. When I wake up on the first I pick one piece of paper out and it represents my fortune. This year I picked neutral. This tradition comes from my grandmother. She's 97 years old, so you know it's legit.

Random Burlingtonian Quote of the Day 📝
The rise of new science in the seventeenth century laid hold upon general culture in the next century. The enlightenment... testified to the widespread belief that at last light had dawned, that dissipation of ignorance, superstition, and bigotry was at hand, and the triumph of reason was assured -- for reason was counterpart in man of the laws of nature which science was disclosing. The reign of law in the natural world was to be followed by the reign of law in human affairs.
—John Dewey
