That's too bad Jill. I recently discovered that librarians make pretty
good money. It is curious that in this pandemic the town has recently
laid off 22 staff, even though some of them had work they could be
doing. The library was one of the first facilities to close, but none
of the librarians have been laid off.

*sigh* I said his house burned down. I assume if your house burned down,
you'd have nothing as well/

Most people with half a brain have homeowners insurance. If he chose a
policy that does not provide for 100% replacement then he's as stupid
as you.

I wonder if he was kicking the shit out of his oven while it was
turned on.
 
Insurance might not cover that.

Not to worry. If you ask her about this in the future she will deny that
she said it.

There is a park across the street from me that is known for drug deals. That
could be why we see them here so often.

I probably saw that footage. It was a red kangaroo, and on the program I
saw, they were playing "Waltzing Matilda" while it streaked along the
fence. The stride would have been 19 feet, because they can do 25 feet or
more.

Thank you! I knew it was an eyebrow-raising length! The kangaroo didn't
look like it was even breaking a sweat.

I made coffee this morning, made my bed, had a bath, and later in the day
I went to Aldi's. Oh, I put a new roll of toilet paper on my holder
yesterday.
 
P.S. That trip to Aldi's involved b.u.r.n.i.n.g. g.a.s.

Of course they do. Lots of people have enough musical training to be
able to identify instruments by make. I took instrumental music for a
while in high school and we had lessons on identifying the instruments
in an orchestra. I took guitar lessons for a while, have owned a number
of acoustic and electric guitars and jammed with people and attended
lots of music venues. One day I was going somewhere with a co-worker
and he said something about the the guitar work. I commented about it
being an acoustic guitar. He expressed some surprise that that I could
tell the difference between an electric and an acoustic guitar. I told
him I could do better than that, that I could tell the difference
between nylon and steel strung acoustic guitars, and that if listening
to rock or jazz I could probably tell him the make and model of the
electric guitar.
 
My wife used to doubt me when listening to rock and jazz and I would
comment on the sound of the Hammond B3. She is now capable of
identifying that one too.

The show I was watching featured a trained 14 or 15-year-old boy who's
grandparents were there to buy him a grand. He narrowed it down to two
of at least 15 in the showroom he liked. I could _barely_ tell the
difference in the sound and that was only after he played the two 3 or 4
different times. But it was enough of a difference he could immediately
detect the different tones.

> Did you ever find out - or guess - exactly why she was so terrified? That is, what her parents might have told her or not told her, beforehand?
 
She told me her mother didn't tell her anything about sex. Just that
she should "be ready" (whatever that means) for what her husband needed
to do. She had no idea. These things were never talked about. I don't
know what grandma told her but grandma was the mother of 5 children. I
think the only thing my mother heard was the pain of childbirth. She
sat on the stairs and heard her younger sister being born. Grandma was
upstairs crying in pain.
 
I think that's what she associated sex with. Pain.
 
It's amazing to me. I feel rather sad that she never experienced
pleasure in the act.
 
Oh. That same younger sister...my Aunt Jean. When she was an adult and
married to her first husband (who died of a flu in the 1940s). My
father (my parents weren't married yet, he lived next door) came over to
visit and found her sister upstairs in the bed having a miscarriage. No
one else was at home. He called a doctor and stayed with her until my
mother and grandmother came home (Grandpa was working at the mill) to
tend to her.
 
What a horrific thing to witness. So, that was my mother's introduction
to childbirth. Oh dear.
 
Home births were common back then. My brothers and I were all born in
hospitals.
 
> It reminds me of what I once told someone. If a young woman today truly wants to save sex for marriage, well, there's no shortage of good reasons for that, provided she doesn't use that as an excuse to marry at 18 or to marry a charmer she hardly knows. BUT...if she's still talking in terms of "giving" herself to her husband, that just might mean she isn't really ready for marriage, since the implication is that she doesn't really want to have sex; she just thinks of it as a "wifely duty."
 
> (Yes, I realize that "giving" is pretty common terminology, but still...it's not as though evangelicals are known for encouraging women to exercise their sexual rights IN a marriage.)
 
> Lenona.
 
Virginity is overrated.

I grew up in a small town. When I was 12-14 the Saturday night activity
was dance lessons. It is a small world, because it turned out that my
wife, who had grown up in nearby city and attended private school, had
lessons from the same couple. The only problem was that, it being a
girls' school, she often led. By coincidence, years later I met and
became friends with the couple's grandson.

There is a missing young girl from here and she lived two blocks from me.
She's been featured on unsolved/missing persons programs several times.
Her name is Tabitha Tuders and she disappeared 17 years ago April 29 at
the age of 14. Supposedly she was talking to someone online at the local
library that her parents did not know about and also supposedly, they were
quite strict.
 
Did she meet up with this person she was talking with online? Did he kill
her or was she kidnapped and sold into the sex trade? No one has a clue and
no trace of her or sightings since she disappeared.
