My Seventh Summer
What a wonderful story, Lana. You had a very pretty mother. I know how you felt. My first memory of flying to Kentucky to visit my grandparents and aunts was when I was four years old. My grandmother came flying out of the house and grabbed me ...

My Seventh Summer
I love your story of the summer you spent in Italy as a child. And what a wonderful thing that you can remember so much of it! Isn't it amazing how children pick up on things and adjust to new things so easily and quickly? I don't envy your ...

Stupid criminals! But I guess their egos get in the way of their brains. I enjoyed reading this article.

What is Self Harm?
This is an excellent introduction to the topic. Didn't know about Self Harm Awareness Day. It's a good idea and should get more publicity, IMO.

Why Shouldn't We Speak Ill of the Dead?
I guess it's where you're standing at the time. I can't imagine the Miners' Strike ever being a footnote in history around here. We're still surrounded by closed down pits. In fact there's one right across the road from me. I can see the ...

Why Shouldn't We Speak Ill of the Dead?
