A panicked or a heartless one.

I don't forgive it, but I understand it.

An Eskimo family floating on an iceberg in the arctic ocean has no choice but to let the old ones go.

The desperation in New Orleans was of a different sort, but it was desperation nonetheless.

I would have preferred the situational ethics had been governed by a better sort of character, but who am I to judge?

I thought of you this morning. Last weekend we went to my brother's to continue helping him clear out closets, and we did the pantry. I found a two pound can of Irish oatmeal from Killarney. Lugged it home with me and today made some. It took forever. I ate two cups of it at 11:30 this morning and it's now 7:30 and I am STILL not hungry.
My mother used to say, oatmeal sticks to your ribs, but I didn't think she meant it quite so literally.
It was interesting, but not terribly good til I added cream, butter, and brown sugar. It says on the cannister I should use buttermilk.
I must go look up your old posts on this topic!
