Best of a F.O.O.L.* in New Hampshirename

BRENDAN SMITH HAS BEEN A COLUMNIST FOR THE WEIRS TIMES since 1995. Many of his early columns focused on his adjustment to life in Central New Hampshire after having moved there from Long Island, New York, in 1985 and were presented in his first book, The Flatlander Chronicles. Today his weekly A F.O.O.L. (Flatlander’s Observations On Life) in New Hampshire column focuses not just on his continuing adjustments but on life in general in New Hampshire and beyond.
