My boss and his wife did this. I'm sure they told their family and close friends, but they never mentioned it to anyone in the lab. She would come in once every couple of weeks, and I started to suspect, but depending on what she was wearing, it was not quite obvious. Of course, no one wanted to ask, but…

I think the reason the "original owner" (or thief or scammer) is getting less scorn is that is goes without saying that he's a criminal. He sold a dog using a fake picture to make a fairly large sum of money. When criminals act badly, we aren't really surprised and the scorn is kind of implied.

they basically made her look less happy by smoothing out the skin under her eyes.

SO MANY nieces and nephews (beyond Grady, of course)

"Acting," although he is an athlete (football player). He plays the guy that get accused and Jessica is SURE he's innocent (even though she just met him a day or two before).

Growing up, we only got 2 TV stations at home, so my grandma taped Murder, She Wrote (and a few other series) to send to us in the mail.

Brian Cranston (twice!), Megan Mullaly, and Bruce Jenner are my favorites so far.

Last year I started watching Murder, She Wrote last year from the beginning. I'm currently in the middle of season 6 (which is where the non-Jessica episodes start to pop up). As I reach the halfway point, I'm starting to panic about running out of episodes.

Did you read what I wrote? My mom owned a size 0 nice dress, but she was a size 12. That does not "fill the quota" unless the purpose of owning a dress is just to bring it along with you on a hanger. You can not alter a size 0 dress up to a size 12.

Listen, I own a few nice dresses, my husband owns a few suits. I get why for many people it makes sense. We live in a big city (fancy restaurants/events), are at an age where we go to 2-3 weddings per year, have white collar jobs (potentially have to look extra nice for meetings/conferences/interviews).

But why? Some people are poor. Some people have weight that changes over time.

My dad posting the the photo of some guy (I think from Washington, on trial for murder) with a gun and a wad of cash in his mouth with the caption "Why doesn't the media show THIS picture of Michael Brown?"

I went wedding dress shopping about 1200 miles from where I live. I went where I grew up because that's where several of my bridesmaids/close friends live. Without my Matron of Honor, I would have been a mess, I don't know the names for any styles or anything. She helped me articulated what I wanted and also knows…

Maybe he was tested for it? It's a genetic disease, so he couldn't have been vaccinated for it.

You are right.

From the conversation we had 3ish years ago, I think she thinks all the antibodies have kind of coagulated into a blob and are just chilling.

Thanks, I'll definitely look into the book. Currently, we live about 1000 miles apart, so we only see each other about once a year. If we were living in the same town, I know the conversation would have been unavoidable long ago. We're planning a trip together over the summer, so hopefully, I'll get a chance to…

I am also confused. She works as an assistant (although she is getting certified, so maybe they're more like partners now) to a Nutrition Response Therapist. If you want to be more confused, google it.

This is a topic I agonize over...I work in science, and her science background is barely passing high school science (not because she isn't smart, but because she didn't care). Now she talks about all sorts of crazy things (mostly other people misinterpreting studies) and has gone to "conferences" (one was affiliated…

Yeah...I know.
