rf, i was calling her old number. just got off the phone. ha she was like i was going to call you at 3pm today, i totally beat her too it! she said she had a cold in her kidney since new years but that she’s on antibiotics. why do old people call everything a cold of something?
Re Challenger, I met a nice man who lived in DC and came to NY periodically and we went out a few times. He worked in an administrative capacity in the Air Force. When I asked him about the Challenger experience (he had worked on this), it was 3 or 4 years after it happened, he burst out crying. In a restaurant.
It was very disconcerting. But I guess he was traumatized by it and never got over it. It freaked me out though.
Men who cry that way kind of unnerve me. But I remember going home questioning my own views of male crying and also thinking this must have been really terrible for him.
You are right. An individual case with various ethical considerations versus a deliberate whitewash of an organization’s history in promoting government-enforced eugenics.
Donatella, once a week I go to Fairway and then stop at Pathmark in Gowanus on the way back. Both with big parking lots. Sometimes I take a look at Key Food on Fifth Ave. (another parking lot) on the way home. I make lists!
Of course I have to use the back of the van as a pantry!
Benson, I mentioned it because you mentioned Planned Parenthood (pre-WWII? That’s 60 years ago) vs the church on eugenics. This is NOW. It’s a pretty factual issue, no twisting words there.
ugh. i havent talked to my grandmother since new years and im crap it’s been like almost a month and i just tried calling (twice) and i keep getting a message that says, you have a reached a number that is no longer in service.

Compelling logic.
Next.
Rob, do you have any other way to get in touch with her? Why not send her a letter TODAY?

I had a brief fling with Luxenburgan semi-royal. Is he considered Euro-trash. He was circumcised.
