Yes... yours is better. It is really hard for me to put myself in CA's position b/c at that moment, soo much has taken place that has gotten her to that point in time, it's almost impossible(for me) to remember all of it. It takes ALOT to get me angry but once my fuse is lit---watch out! LOL I am pretty sure my anger would have taken over my reasoning (and that doesn't usually help one to think clearly). Honestly, I can't even imagine being in that position b/c I would have nipped it in the bud years before. Anyhoo....
I have just spent at least an hour going through your last link. There is alot of interesting info in that. I have so many notes right now, I need to organize my thoughts on them b/f I post. It's kinda hard to follow so much info. But the botanical evidence they are analyzing has me wondering if that could be those dead flowers in the photo SFT posted. I have to try and figure out where that evidence came from. Was it from the trunk? I'm not sure yet. When I figure it out I'll post about it. JMO
O/T--I had to laugh when I saw your post saying something about "whip me with a wet noodle" because that is one of my tongue in cheek sayings I use on my son. I tell him ok buddy for that you get "50 lashes with a limp noodle"! lol pretty close huh? You know what they say? Great minds think alike!
