While I was out today, two men in a van attempted to kidnap the nice teenage girl across the street. Chinchy bassas.

A couple thoughts:
(1) You do have some interesting experiences, DR Laura.
(2) Is there an implication here that had you been home, then...???

We're STILL on page six?  How can this be?  We've had like eight posts in the last three hours.  I tell you, those who have been errant and truant will pay the price, oh, yes, they will pay the price.


Bruce, pls note that I'm BACK! (For what it's worth.)

DR Laura, that's a terrifying story.  How old is the girl?  Why is it this madness didn't seem to be occurring 50 years ago when I was a kid?  I know it must have, but surely not with the enormous number of situatons today.

Yes, it DID happen fifty years ago. Little was done, things were hushed up. Sometimes when a group of women get together many stories pour forth. In my experience, a great many women have suffered some sort of abuse or near abuse. We just don't talk about it.

Well, I didn't have the experience; she did. This has always been a very safe neighborhood, so it is upsetting. It's a shame a young girl can't even walk around the block at noon.

I was out getting my new camera when this happened.

So let it be written, so let it be done.

This is a couple of news photos of Frances when she was rediscovered clerking at the Sheraton Palace Hotel in San Francisco in 1957.  ;D

Hey, maybe that is what has become of June Kenney...only she hasn't been recognized yet.

I make potato salad but I don't put mustard in it.  It's just potatos, hard boiled eggs, onions, celery, salt, pepper and Miracle Whip.

My mother-in-law's "secret" ingredient is Marzetti's Slaw Dressing.  

I buy Kroger's mustard potato salad and DH Richard adds a dollop of mustard to his serving.

Give a sharp look to all those clerks checking you in and renting you cars in LA....one could be Ms Kenney!  

I still think her relatives in Boston would know something.  8)

I can understand your concern.

I was in downtown LA many years ago when I walked into a mugging. The guy with the gun was standing right next to me. I slipped into a local shop to get away from him. A few minutes later the police arrived, etc. It's unsettling, to be sure.

Did they catch the people, dear reader Laura?  Or did they just get away?

If you want to see a real Belgian waffle, ask Jean Claude Van Damm if he is straight.

Hmm... Looks like I'll have to venture elsewhere if I'd like some Popeye's Fried Chicken... I was just watching the 10:00 news, and the lead story was about a woman who had a leg cramp while driving, and ended up stepping on the gas, and driving into a Popeye's Fried Chicken location.  The one two blocks from my apartment.  Thankfully, no one was hurt.

I had gone out for a walk earlier, and noticed some commotion and TV cameras out there, but couldn't tell what had happened.  Guess I know what happened now.

Everyone on the OTL message board thinks the judges are crazy and the hostess is a lost cause.

I didn't join to vote, because I don't think it matters, but IF movies are really all barfing, farting, and peeing, then I know why I don't go to a lot of movies.

AND no matter what his mother says on the message board...the guy in the short movie seemed "special" and not "a nerd."

I know too many stories of abuse in my own family's past. but that wasn't my point. I was talking about abducting children off the streets.  The local news is full of stories.  It's clearly becoming quite a popular thing in criminal/psycho behavior to abduct young people. I don't recall much about this at all 50 years ago, even though it must have happened.  It seems so prevalent these days.

Maybe this is beside the point, but I had Kentucky Fried Chicken last friday without incident.  

(I did have sweet and sour sauce, though.)

I could have sworn I posted something earlier today from Orlando.
Don't remember what it was, but I thought I did.
Well I am back and looking forward to the new week.

Exciting isn't it?

I remember going to see the Russian Giselle (Bolshoi Ballet) film years ago. Is that similar to the Lithuanian Gazelle.
