I think this is an excellent investment, as long as someone takes away these kids’ smartphones during the performances.

Along with the magnificent Suzanne Pleshette, Susan Hayward, and Susan St. James—Ruth had one of the filthiest mouths ever to slide down a beanpole. Suzanne was the heartiest, the most likely to make blood come out of a Mormon’s ears, but Ruth had a pisk on her that could parboil a teak log. Susan Hayward made cops…

That’s horrible! *hugs*

I’m not sure why these guys don’t realize this. It’s like they have no concept of something being “bad for the brand”.

I took a turn doing that as my student placement in 4th year university. Thankfully, it was the time in my life that I was at my most idealistic. Even as cynical as I’ve become, though, I can’t imagine crossing that line unless the student is creating an actual danger.

Did things work out?

He must have been called-out on it, yeah. I’ll bet this is going to be even more of a thing going forward. When i was in high-school, if you had told me: “In less than twenty years, every teenager is going to have a powerful handheld computer in their pocket that can connect them to the world’s vast library of…

I agree with you. He probably has an embarassing boner story. Maybe it got set-off during his first slow-dance at a school ball, or he had to present a report in front of the class with one of those unpredictable, not-even-sexual boners that are the folly of many a 14-year-old. I was lucky to dodge those myself, but…

LOL that guy was such an ambulatory sack of runny monkey-nuts. Thank you for drawing-out the insanity in him for all to experience!

“.....and the slug they slithered in on” would have been an appropriate alternate. A+

I’m not sure why more people don’t do this. It seems so much better than going into debt throwing a party for relatives you barely see anyway.

I’ve found that, too. Sometimes stuff gives you a way bigger heart-punch once you are an emotionally mature person.

I’ve never understood these people. Don’t they have any sense of embarassment?

Yeah, the real reason is always that they are afraid people will stand outside and wait for the free ones if they institute a policy like that. I don’t buy that it would ever happen like that.

That is absolutely tragic. Yeah, that’s a true example of letting your greatest strength become your greatest weakness. I’m so sorry if it magnified your trauma.

Holy moly. Getting to sleep must have been hard for a while....

My marriage has for the most part been wonderful, but there have been a few times when if we had just been living together, the relationship would have been easy to just walk away from. I’m not into traditions at all, but I have to admit there is something to be said for actually entering into a legal arrangement with…

I ain’t Catholic. Never was, never will be, but I appreciate that your mom knew how to look for the good in things. People these days are so eager to tear eachother down. I seriously hope we never have a food shortage in this country or we’ll start eating eachother before sunset.

This is such a good point. I wish people knew this.

I'm 33 years old, sir. I haven't heard that one since the sixth grade, back in the early nineties. I'm glad you've been giving it a good home. I always wondered where it went.
