I’ll send you a friend request on facebook so you can see some pics of how I turned out. Promise not to laugh to hard, eh?

I came across this website while looking for a former girl friend I knew in college. By any chance, did you happen to attend FSU in the 80’s?

As a resident, I want to read a paper that informs me of what is going on in my community without sensationalizing the story. I hope you covered it.

I remember when the attacks of 9/11 were happening. I watched the horror unfold on tv. 99% of my brain thought it was made up, a Hollywood fabrication. I had become so desensitized to images on tv I could not discern between reality and fabricated imagery.

Perhaps this young man you are following in this story is in his American numbed out state, seeing the rest of the world as a movie and he the audience.

I don’t suppose a returning Iraqi war veteran would feel the same as a returning political eco-tourist. That’s a given. But do we really have to be in a war to feel anything real for another people’s plight? I hope not.

Like you, I have never had children. I’ve always felt I have had many children in many past lives and in this life, it’s not about children. I’ve had (and continue to have) other important things to do. My guess is that you do, too.

I support you in the notion that it is important to spend as much time with your mother as possible. My mother lived a thousand miles away the last nine years before she died and I made a point of talking with her on the telepone every week or so and going back to Illinois to see her for more than a couple of days at least once a year. She’s been gone fourteen years and I’m glad I did that. I doubt that she and I would have made great roommates and I’ve no doubt that having your mother living with you can be challenging at times. But I also doubt you’ll later regret having had this time with her.
