Most of us have at least a rudimentary familiarity with yoga, either as a practitioner or someone who knows one. You can confirm that lots of poses are named after animals. To all Granite State yogis and yoginis, I present the “Hilliard Position.” Stay with me here.

“I Don’t Want to be Shannon Faulkner” is the Answer, But What is the Question?
I’ll start with a quick review of 30 years ago when Ms. Faulkner disgraced ALL women (real adult females), veterans, and civilians alike by litigating her way into the Citadel and then dropping out. Look it up if you want to learn more, but I’ll get back to her later.
Night Cap: The (not so) “Quiet Phase” of Campaigning
I’m guessing most of the Grok Faithful are familiar with the areas of interest of the regular contributors. A few examples would be Ann Marie Banfield and education or Claire Best and law enforcement/justice system corruption involving the youth center.
Celia Isn’t the Only One Breaking My Heart
In a previous article, I noted that I thought Attorney Celia Leonard was being coached by Attorney Bolton and his hired legal Dream Team on Wednesday, 4/10. The next day, I looked for a camera in Courtroom 3, as Mr Buckmire, the head of security advised me to mention in my request for footage.
Chuck Morse, “Are You Ready for the Question?”
Whether from the gallery or on video, if you’ve watched the senate for enough hours and minutes, you know that the one with the gavel regularly asks the rest of the body “are you ready for the question?”
Do Not Let Your Community Lose Its Dignity by Becoming Another Nashua.
I will start by sharing a video link for the readers to bookmark, though I don’t recommend wasting 98 minutes of your life listening to the insufferable drivel of the Nashua local swamp.
Miscellaneous Thoughts from Day 5 of Ortolano vs. City of Nashua
Before leaving for court Thursday morning, I submitted a mockery of Attorney Celia Leonard and provided a link to a Simon and Garfunkel song that mentions her name. This time, the song I will share is a few years older. In fact, it’s older than me, and it’s called The Cheater.
“Celia” is Breaking My Heart, and that of Lady Justice.
I never thought I would have an opportunity to name an article after my favorite Simon and Garfunkel song, but here we are. I am talking about Attorney Celia Leonard, locally known as Deputy Corporation Counsel, and a direct report to Attorney Bolton.
Was Sen. Reagan Recruited to Steal the Non-Establishment Vote? You Tell Me.
I was going to name this article Part 3 of The Case for Nurse Terese, but things often don’t go as planned, and such is life. And let it be known that Mr. (John) Stephen is still due some acknowledgment for why he is NOT the correct replacement for Ted Gatsas.
A Private Citizen Spectator’s Thoughts on Attorney Bolton’s Compensation.
With the Senate Judiciary hearing for the dastardly RTK Tax (HB 1002)scheduled for Tuesday and the remainder of Laurie Ortolano’s RTK suit against the City of Nashua set to resume on Wednesday, Attorney Bolton has been a squatter in my mind. I point readers unfamiliar with him to this video.
Dem State Sen. Flip Flops on Protecting Women’s Sports
If you look through the recent works of Ed Mosca, you will find him calling out a few of his local enemy camp reps. I’m here to request that he take those good skills to “the other side of the wall” and apply them to Manchester’s Swampiest. D’Allesandro needs no introduction, but those in need of a refresher profile of him can click here.
The Case for Nurse Terese, Part 2.
In my previous article, I discussed the earliest candidate slate members for the executive council seat being vacated by the retirement of Ted Gatsas. I elaborated on Ryan Terrell and have been asking some questions behind the scenes and even emailed Scanlan.
The Case for Nurse Terese (for Executive Council).
Sometimes, I choose a title, and that’s how it’s published. Sometimes, management alters it at its discretion. Sometimes, I submit a piece and call it “untitled,” thus letting the editor finish the job for me. There are a variety of reasons and one of them has to do with the enjoyment of pretending I’m Howie Carr or Ed Mosca, but today’s literary inspiration is Victor Davis Hanson.
New Cross Referenced List and Merrimack Reps.
Think of me as the guy who doesn’t always drink beer, but when he does, he prefers Dos Equis. It’s funny I should think of that because I am presently a paying customer in the new Mexican joint in the Bertucci’s building on Amherst Street, using their Wi-Fi hot spot because my former employer’s product is being a POS.
Night Cap: What Does The Stratford Fire have to do with the Worcester 6?
WMUR has been covering quite a few fires lately, including this one. https://www.wmur.com/article/stratford-fire-barn-no-injuries/60362376 Since the story is not very old, not much detail is available. However, one can adjust their searches of coverage of recent fires by dates, location, damages, victims, and media outlets and come up with a variety of data.
Garry Rayno is a Misinformation Spreader, Change my Mind!
Most Grok readers already know that In-Depth NH dot org is an enemy camp publication that routinely spews garbage op-eds, like this one, written by its “State House Bureau Chief,” Garry Rayno.
One Paddler’s Thoughts of Franklin’s Whitewater Park
Admittedly, I have not kept my knowledge current on the efforts to create a paddling park on the Winnipesaukee River in recent years, but recent Grok coverage and attention from the NH Journal stirred some thoughts and memories.
The Time to Donate to Lily Tang Williams is Right Now!
I’m sure the grapevine has reached all corners of NH and cyberspace with Annie Kuster’s retirement announcement earlier today. I was at the state house and wearing my “Chuck Morse’s voting record matters” shirt when I received the news just before the executive council was called to order. Readers ought to be familiar with his 11/19/21 crime against NH.
Chuck “Backs the Blue,” But Will he “Weaponize the Green?”
I feel like a broken record in saying that criticism for one is not necessarily an endorsement for the other when discussing Chuck Morse and Kelly Ayotte, but keep in mind that the latter is a lawyer, after all.
Defund the Police (Chief)!
That’s right, I said that. If the Hollis Police Chief doesn’t care to serve and protect Hollis until the moment of his upcoming retirement, I say that his retirement should be defunded. Chief Hoebeke appears(looks and acts) like his Merrimack counterpart, Chief Levesque.
