January 24, 2002 - "I just came from your website and want to let you know a thing or two.  Number  one being: your sister, in case you forgot, was a teenage unwed mother.  I take offence of your narrow-minded,  stuffed-shirted opinion on the subject. Just thought I'd get that off my chest."

Man, I've been waiting for this.  What I failed to mention in my Rant was the distinct difference between "unwed pregnancy" and "teenage pregnancy".  Teen pregnancy involves, in the equation, a certain amount of naïveté.  In most cases, these girls haven't been properly educated in sexual protection.  Unwed pregnancy, while including the subgroup of teen pregnancy, also includes those older individuals who should know better.  The Greater Greenville area has an astounding population of the latter group.  They are the ones I was referring to in my Rant, the ones who are making it socially acceptable in Greater Greenville.  Teenage naïveté is one thing, but to have 10-20 years of fucking experience without getting pregnant, then suddenly turning up that way is completely different.  I hope this explains my position better.  Thanx for pointing out the holes in my argument, sis.  Keep up the good work.  Also, I'm going to post a link to this response at the end of that Rant for clarification.

 "Also, you mentioned building a house.  Where?  Have you bought some land or have a place in mind?"

In the article, I mention that I'll be leaving this area soon and that I plan on beginning the house-building process by this time next year.

"I called you during the playoffs and left a message on the answering machine.  I suppose I'll have to pull for the Steelers now...(sigh).  I never hear from you." - Beverley

That's true.  You do have to pull for the Steelers now...that is if you want to pick a winner.  I wasn't home during the playoffs that weekend.  I was at Steve's in the gentle hands of Pabst.
