Which Reminds Me

Yes, Oh, now I can sor of see that you are confused. It was actually Turner who was our MAPS worker, which means that she was working as a financially independent volunteer, not really on salary. She was originally from Nebraska, but she married a native man there, so that is how her family became intertwined in a residential way with that of her husband, Leonal, but that is a different story for another day. And how does Turner of Nebraska converse with Tuner of New York? This is not clear.

Which Reminds Me

Yes, ok, so I sort of remember hearing that you borrowed your sister's diet pills and then could not sleep for two or three nights. That was the only thing that I can actually remember hearing. Everything else beyond that would only be a useless embellishment of something that was not much interest, because anyway you were not really that important to a mere eavesdropper, it just did not matter. I would hope that you would have learned your lesson and never did that again, but how knows. I cannot be expected to keep track of all these people. 

Which Reminds Me

Yes, I vaguely remember that we have already discussed this point more than once, about how the Spanish word for freckle is the noun "peca," a word that can also, in another context, when used as a verb, signify "to sin.' So if I sit out in the sun getting myself sunburned, my freckles and/or specks of melatonin, might get a shade darker, and thus I would be sinning. Yes, ha ha ha! A tedious sort of funny. Enough about that. 

Which Reminds Me

Yes, it is always so amazingly clever, how they make all of these arrangements behind my back, never explain anything, and then I am supposed to somehow pull a rabbit out of a hat to defend them. I do not know that I care that much. 

Which Reminds Me

Yes, I vaguely remember that while I was working in Central Florida, I was assigned to write a story about lemon lawes, and my source was basically the manager of the local Ford dealership. He semmed to be very knowledgable on this topic, so that he definiately was not you, and one supposes that it is always good for readers to know that there are legal remedies in the event of getting stuck with a lemon car, one that is apparently defective and always breaking down and costing a fortune to maintain. He almost might have been persuaded to buy a Ford myserlf, but then again, you know what they say about Ford: FIX OR REPAIR DAILY. So I don't know. Maybe it is only the people who got stuck with a defective Ford who say that. I would have to think about that. And anyway, whatever was said about lemon laws at that time is probably out of date by now.  A completely different set of information and statistics would be required, but we do not have time for that now given that there is no job to require that.

Which Reminds Me

Yes, interesting how some people had already listed me on their roster of villains even before I ever knew they existed, or maybe I was only vaguely aware of their existence later. How many times do I have to explain that I never took a puff or even touched the cigarette that was being passed around the girls' locker room. So why should I care about the cigarette butt that you left in your toilet? I have not the slightest clue what to say about that. Something is wrong with this picture. I am not going to knee-jerk perform some dramatic skit about that for your entertainment. Figure something out without bothering me about your life decisions.  

Which Reminds Me

Yes, what was all that twaddle about the title of Dorothy, and how just being a redhead is not enough to qualify to bear the moniker and/or title of Dorothy? That the redhead ruse of the movie was only a twist added by Hollywood to some other previous traditions about Dorothy? Thus, the redheads of the world should not be imagining themselves the heroine of the story. And also, Dorothy with her degree from SCC is boasting that she may have more influence than some Dorothy Barth, my Dad's cousin, long since deceased, who married an Italian man, and became the mother of the Italian branch of the family. That is a lot of stuff to ponder when I have other things on my mind.
