Fisherman's and a Quarry

I can't believe it.

“My job is becoming more and more demanding,” he said of his position as president and CEO of Harvard Pilgrim Health Care. “I don’t believe in walking away from a job half done, but I don’t feel I can throw myself as fully into this task as it requires.”

No doubt he's busy. Good on him for not committing to more than he could handle.

However, that leaves two incumbents not running for reelection - and a third who is apparently thinking of leaving the board as well.

In a nod to Town Administrator Andrew Maylor and possible sign of things to come, Paster added, “I believe we have one of the best financial teams in this state, led by Mr. Maylor. If for some reason I choose not be a selectman after this year is over, I know I’ll leave the town in good hands.”

Imagine, Swampscott without a prominent Paster?
