He may be the last if he is unable to produce a son.

If they won't allow women to be emperor, I wonder if sex-selective IVF will be the answer.

I avoid going out during busy times - e.g., rush hour, school zones, restaurants on a Friday or Saturday night.

I could make a solid argument for the '60s

Into my largest suitcase: cash, medicine, important paperwork, yearbooks, favorite childhood stuffed animals, a week of everyday clothes, photo albums, every greeting card my husband has ever given me, as much makeup and nail polish as I can fit (shit's expensive!), phone, kindle, the watercolor I had commissioned of my dog who is no longer with us, and my box of yorkshire gold

somebody had ripped open one of the bags and placed a roll under the windshield wipers of every car on South Street

I wish Santa Amoroso would visit me!

I love chipmunks! Such a big squeak from such a tiny body, plus I love their pointy tails :)

Yup I live right near the Brandywine. PA gets beautiful fall colors! They're also great along the Delaware up near the Water Gap (but I'm biased because the Delaware is my favorite river) :)

That's strange, I grew up in NJ and our roads tend to be well maintained. It was kinda shocking when I moved to PA and the roads had way more potholes and skinny useless shoulders!

The movie version of A Clockwork Orange was based on the American version of the book, which left out the entire last chapter. In that chapter, at 18 years old Alex pretty suddenly grows out of his violent and criminal ways and wants to start a family. Some say this ending is more optimistic but I actually think it's darker, because it shows that any normal person you meet might've at some point been a wanton brute reveling in the chaos and pain they so arbitrarily inflicted. And that they can just move on and start living like a normal person.
