RAMBLING from 5


viously more efficient than its forty year old predeces- sor, which said Whirlpool on the door. But, let me tell you, it


is one noisy contraption! Usually, when I get up in the morning, it is sitting silently in the pantry, not even running. But, I’ve come to notice that the minute I disturb it by opening and shutting the door on the refrigerator compartment, it rattles off to a start. The ini- tial start up’s cacophony slowly diminishes, but it never becomes what I’d characterize as quiet. The Frigidaire owner’s manual is peppered with reasons as to why you should not be alarmed by all the noise your new refrigera- tor will make! What does that tell you? But noise or not, I consider myself for- tunate to live in a country where refrigeration, indoor plumbing and other civi-

lized amenities are avail- able to almost everyone. May that always remain true for our offspring and their descendants! The status of the so- called investigation of the Stacey Burns murder re- mains the same. That is, the New Hampshire Attorney General’s Office has not reported on any progress in their investi- gation of her brutal mur- der on Mother’s day 2009, at least that I have seen. From all the evidence that I have seen, that’s prob- ably a good indicator that there hasn’t been any significant progress in the investigation of that crime. Then there’s another


unsolved murder with Wolfeboro ties. One year after she was shot and killed in October of 2010, Roberta “Bobbie” Miller’s family is trying to stimu- late some activity in find- ing the person or persons

Here is a photo of my remote reading fuel oil gauge that was installed this past summer by Terry Biehl of Terry’s Independent Heating. As you can see, the readout unit may be plugged into any convenient AC outlet. You can also see the base of the unit’s small antenna, but what you can’t see is the fact that the antenna is but a mere three inches long.

time of Bobbie’s murder she was recently divorced and was not on good terms with her ex-husband Gary Miller, who once owned a five franchise new car dealership on Route 28, in Wolfeboro. Miller later re- treated to Sanford, Maine, where he owned and op- erated a Ford agency. None of Miller’s original franchises now survive. Around the time that Ro- berta Miller’s body was discovered, a camp prop- erty in or near Sanford, Maine, that one or both of the Millers owned, mys- teriously burned to the ground! The New Hamp- shire Attorney General’s Office reports of progress in this case are similar to the progress reported in the Burns’ case. (No progress has been report- ed.) Some people on area discussion forums try to make a case for allowing the Major Crimes Unit of the New Hampshire At- torney General’s Office enough time to conduct their investigation. This prompted one discussion forum’s member to post the following: (With my additions of minor im- provements to grammar, spelling and punctua- tion.) “What’s the hurry??


You’re joking, right? Some nutbag is out there on the loose, who killed a women, and her dog, and your asking what’s the hurry??? Compromise an investigation? Let them take their time. And how much time is appropriate, 2, 3, 4 years? You want to kill someone? Do it in the state of NH. Just don’t be stupid enough to leave your wallet behind, and you should be all set.” The old 1825 Cape Cod
