Manhattan's latest child disappearance was tragically solved today:
http://www.hinterlandgazette.com/2011/07/levi-aron-arrested-for-murder-of-9-yo.html

I may have some information wrong here, but it's my understandng that he had begged his parents to prove he was grown up and to walk home from school/camp, and I gather he got lost before this creep came across his path. What I really wonder is why any parent would let a 9 year-old child walk home alone without being certain he could do it. It's so sad.


Tragic!

I just did two short updates on Kickstarter, posting two videos I shot with the iPhone - unfortunately, because I was watching in low-light, the iPhone's contrast gets wonky, so the Lesbian, Butch, Dyke number gets REALLY colorful - it looks great when you're in person watching it - here's a link to the first clip then just go to update five.

Tragic!

Truly heartbreaking & the parents will be haunted by there decision forever.  I can only say as a parent I got lucky sometimes regarding my decisions.

OK - I will be E & T until after dinner tonight.  My travels today require that I navigate something called "Spaghetti Junction," so some vibes would be appreciated!

Bye for now, y'all!


Let us know when you get pasta Spaghetti Junction.

LOL, DR TCB!  I got pasta Spaghetti Junction twice with no problems.  It helped to know which lane to be in - my cousins coached me yesterday.  Had a delightful lunch with Gail who was my roommate our junior year at Michigan and then had coffee with a Facebook Vera Bradley friend.  I got back to church in time for communion and dinner and now I'm about to call my (and DR Elmore's) longtime friend Becki.  She may come over for a drink this evening.

On the news tonight, it was explained that the parents had walked the boy through the route, but they must have not heavily pushed his remembering any landmarks. He should only have walked a couple of blocks and turned right once, then it was straight to where his mother was waiting for him. He didn't make the right turn, kept walking straight, and got horribly lost. The person he asked for help was the killer.

I would have made him walk the route and followed behind him to prove he knew where he was going before I trusted he could do it. The community, which is heavily Hassidic Jewish, is a very safe neighborhood, so the residents are completely stunned by this.

I am tired of proofreading, so I will watch some tv and chill out. Tomorrow is laundry day, and I want to begin it early.

I just read about the safe neighborhood making it more understandable his parents let him walk alone.  I probably would have done what DR elmore suggested or begun with letting him just walk to the street where he needed to turn.

So very sad.

I have an MRI scheduled for this coming Saturday morning.  I am already having panic attacks about it.

If someone can drive & pick you up you can get your doctor to prescribe a mild tranquilizer.  I find it difficult to hold still & it helps me to be relaxed.  Sing songs in your head to deal with the noise.

Been a crazy day. (And not enough hours in it, to quote someone else, I can't remember who).
