That may well be Katy.... but I can't really see how you can stand judgment
on someone when they are trying... and it is a trial & error situation for
us all!! My Dad always told me that the only people who don't screw up are
the ones not doing anything! As far as the Lady's Son is concerned... he's
devastated... he's now more aware... he's learned from this but that will
not mitigate the damage nor the results. Zellers is proceeding with the case
in court.

I get pretty riled up when I see Bully picking on someone weaker.... the
last thing I want to hear is someone telling me it was the victim's fault
because they shouldn't have ventured there. In your case it's blame for the
son who shouldn't have let her wander there. I don't see it that way....
and it irks me to no end that you would. We are all due basic common
respect.

Now ... I've worked a nine hour day.. was up at 0530 hrs to complete the
chores prior to driving the hour to town and came back to find my Dad had
taken full advantage that Mom had to go for Physiotherapy, [I picked her up
after my brother dropped her off]... left the garden hose on and flooded the
tomatoes, removed the phone from the hook and no calls came through.... but
not before he buttered and jellied an entire loaf of bread into neat little
sandwiches... placing each one in a line... he still does not know why.
Yeah... we left him at home alone.... I guess I must be an asshole as well.
Odd... but I wouldn't trade the aggravation for all the tea in china.

Regarding my rash words.... In retrospect ... you are correct... and I
apologize for my statement regarding your religious beliefs... it was
uncalled for and unwarranted.

That said.... I'm left sorely disappointed in your judgment on this matter
and it's more than obvious we shall remain miles apart on this topic.
