It's emphasized over and over the distant, frightened past of it, the terrified, ignorant townspeople. But that's so long ago. I mean, people believed in fairies too,

This is a fantastic write-up, and we need to keep in mind stuff like this still happens. Why you don't have a newspaper column, I'll never know, you've got the talent....

Aww, thank you! I think it might have to do my with extremely sporadic writing, and the lack of newspapers willing to accept a column centred on "things I think about in the bathroom".

I get the feeling that more newspapers than you think would be okay with that title. :P

[happiestsadist]

To be fair, writing a sporadic column about the things I think about while I'm either doing gross stuff or bathing would be a pretty sweet gig.

It would definitely be one of the better jobs out there, I think.
