Re: “State Auditor Doug Hoffer Wants to Keep His (59th) Job”
I've been a Hoffer fan ever since the pivotal Job Gap Study, which changed the discourse forever on how much Vermont households need to earn to attain a very basic standard of living. His analyses are thoughtful, incisive, cogent, objective--and, importantly, compassionate where the needs and concerns of everyday Vermonters are involved. We're very lucky to have him where he is--he's perfect for the job of Auditor.

Re: “Grilling the Chef: Adam Woogmaster Talks Tacos and Food Trucks”
Adam's tacos are amazing and well worth a trip out Route 2, especially on a sunny day. Whatever you're thinking of paying, double it! His payment scheme is a genius mix of pure capitalism and socialism.
