    Some mo fo has loosened the light bulb (twice now) that illuminates my shed area. Suggesting that I might (will) get hit. They must like lead or something. Anyone here bullet proof their shed?

    So -- I feel a need to mention this, fully acknowledging that it may be completely irrelevant.

    Over time, for reasons completely unknown to me, one or both of the bulbs in the fixtures flanking our (unused) front door will work loose enough not to light when switched on. I don't know if it from vibration (although, again, the door itself probably gets opened 2 or 3 times per year) or environmental heating/cooling or evil spirits or... whatever. I just know that roughly annually I have to tighten up one or both bulbs.

    None of the other exterior bulbs (either the 'fancy' fixtures by the doors or the floods up high on the sides and corners of the house) do it -- just the ones by the front door.

    Not near in the vibrational sense, no -- but we can hear them sometimes from the yards in nearby White River Jct, VT, when the wind's blowing the right way.
    We do get some vibration when the Dartmouth Hitchcock Medical Center helicopter (lovingly known as The Death Moth to the DHMC docs) flies overhead. I think when they sent out the RFP for The Death Moth, they spec'd "the noisiest chopper ya got". :|

    Can you hear the Vermont Transit busses idling at the bus station in White River Junction, like when Edward Wanderley (Douglas Farirbanks Jr.) picks up his son Don (Craig Wasson) in the film "Ghost Story" (1981)?

    I've caught the bus to Logan from WRJ -- a long, long time ago.
    Rode the train to and from B-more, too -- also a long, long time ago.
