    Chapter Two

    We are in a comedy of errors where everyone is confused. Except perhaps Sabrina.

    For the record, I hate Carey Okie.

    Chapter One

    My read on it too. I imagine the 'important call' was carefully planned.
  5. There is a town in Iowa named What Cheer. What cheer was used as a greeting in the 15th Century.
  6. "Mad dogs and English men go out in the midday sun." He wrote songs too.
  7. Blithe always reminds me of the classic 1945 movie Blithe Spirit with Rex Harrison.
  8. Blithe should be used to express carefree, innocent, or heedless gaiety.
  9. When I think perky, replies aren't what comes to mind.

    River is such a good caregiver. Now Alec is consigned to Finn, Kenji is his new project.

    Safe can be a relative term.

    Chapter 32 S2

    Dogs and cats are very perceptive and we have seen Louella isn't much of an animal lover. The dog undoubtedly senses her distaste. The real question here is why did she agree to watch the dog if the woman isn't even a friend? What's her angle?
  13. Buoyant can also mean having the quality to rise or float in liquid.
  14. Now I would be delighted with less and fewer rules.

    Chapter 32 S2

    Why does the small dog at Louella's bark? A.) It's mad their owner left them there. B.) It's warning people to stay away from this strange woman. **** On another note, wouldn't this be a great time for some doggies to have some late night or early morning bark and howl sessions?

    If it happens while they are supposedly out of town, who cares?

    But turn off the water first and pour fast setting Quikcrete over the meter.

    I prefer Devin's approach, it's honest. I take after my mother. If I don't like someone, they know it.

    Chapter 32 S2

    Now we know about the mystery man asking about places to eat and it turned out to the boy's benefit as well. It's more than a little hypocritical for Gramps and Pops to admonish them over Louella since they've participated in some of the past hijinks on the witch. I'm sorry for that poor dog.
  20. With its Latin root, delighted can be one of those puzzler words for people who try to decipher meanings by breaking words down. One might think it means something was unlit, as in, the fireman quickly delighted the fire with an extinguisher.
  21. From the Latin delectare, meaning to allure, charm, or please.

    The motto framed in mob boss Carlos Marcello's office.

    Chapter 13

    I don't recall what diverted me from finishing this, but I made it back. Very different from Shirley Jackson's brooding tale and more uplifting. The lotteries so many obsess with now give dreams of escape to some tropical isle, while in reality you'd be inundated by moochers, both known and unknown peddling guilt trips from hell. A very nice and well told tale.

    Using antibacterials on viruses is a waste of time and effort.
