Well... ah... Hi there. This here is The Jet!! I decided that I would take over writing this column for the “old fellow”. First, I know that I have a lot more fans than he does and second, I have a bone or two to pick with him. As you might guess, I love picking bones. However, Mr Big Shot hasn’t shared a bone with me in years. He’s always worried about my weight. I just had an appointment with my friendly vet. Gosh I love seeing those folks, except they do make me get on a scale. So... okay, maybe I have added a couple of pounds in the last year or two, but Mr Smarty Pants has been gaining a few pounds of his very own, and no one is cutting back his kibble. Big dogs need energy!! Big

dogs have rights!! This big dog will chew his butt off if I get any hungrier!! Then of course there are the flies. Since early July, there have been flies that come out every time we head out to take a walk in the woods. They are mean critters who like to burrow into the hair where my ears attach to my head. It is not unusual for me to collect 4 or more of these blood suckers within a 40 feet distance on really bad days. So I walk up to Mr Smarty Pants and stand there so he can see them. Now, if they are all actually buried in the hair, he will normally be not too rough and start digging them out and killing them, but if there are a bunch just kind of scattered about loose... well... he starts whacking my head like a bongo trying to get them all!! Why, if I weren’t a big dog my head would be bouncing like one of those bobble-heads you see in cars. I mean... there just has to be a law against that kind of abuse. I want to trade this red necked maniac in for someone a little more sophisticated. Someone... say smart enough to buy me a hat, with ear covers or something. Yeah... that’s what I want and that’s what I deserve!! Someone smart and sensitive. Someone... just like his Missus!!!!! But... Yuck!! She’s one of those CAT PEOPLE. Okay Mikie, let’s give this one more chance, Some more kibble please. . . 0001 Mike Hickey Tech Support, Ossekeag Publishing

HAMPTON 5-MILER: SPONSORING FITNESS IN OUR COMMUNITY The Hampton 5 Miler, which takes place on Sunday, September 13, is actually three events - not just one. At 9:00am, there is a Kids’ Kilometre Fun Run for children 12 years old and younger, and 9:55 is the start time for the Three-for-Me 3 km run for youth 16 years old and younger. Kids’ K and 3k participants receive a T-shirt, a running bib, a Subway coupon and they are invited to the free light lunch that takes place after the 5 -Miler. The “kids” also receive a participation medal and a popsicle after their run! The 5-Miler, which is recognized as one of the premier running events in the Maritimes, begins at 10:00am. For more info, check out: hamptonriverrunners.ca website. Register online at: runningroom.com or atlanticchip.ca. Despite the low registration fee and the fact that the Hampton 5-Miler was never intended to make a profit, the event has indeed raised some money, all of which has been returned to the Hampton community to promote sports and fitness. Here are some examples of recent Hampton River Runner group donations of 5-Miler dollars: Hampton High School - $1500 for gym equipment; Hampton Middle School $1500 for indoor hockey equipment; Hampton Elementary School - $1500 for gymnastics equipment; Dr AT Leatherbarrow Primary - $1500 for playground maintenance and PE equipment; Hampton Soccer Club $2000 for soccer field drainage repairs; Hampton Resource Centre - $3000 for seniors’ fitness classes.
So come and walk, jog or run at this year’s 5-Miler. You’ll have a great time, and will be helping to support healthy Hampton lifestyles. Your doctor will tell you… exercise fits reduce hissyfits! 3626

STROLL THROUGH TIME IN KARS Residents of Kars and the surrounding communities enjoyed stories and pictures of the past at the Kars Community Hall on August 13. Many of the attendees were descendants of early area settlers. Family names including VanWart, Cookson, Merritt, Reicker, Urquhart, Jones, Palmer and Toole were featured in the presentations. The costumed narrators, Lynn and Kelly Reicker, and Emilie Matheson transported the audience to the past with vivid descriptions of the schools, churches and businesses from Loyalist times through the early 1900’s. Among the attendees was NB Southwest MP John Williamson, who is a history enthusiast while engaging the present. The afternoon driving tour and tea was followed by an evening of talks and displays. The Hall itself returned to its origins as the Princess Alexandria Lodge #36, Temperance Hall of the Women’s Christian Temperance Union and Sons of Temperance for the day
Tour participants in the Kars Community Hall with tea, lemonade and old fashioned desserts. Efforts are underway to restore the Hall, currently almost 150 years old (built 1866) and which remains in use by the community for social gatherings and as a polling station. The Tour, Talks and Tea were organized by the Belleisle Watershed Coalition
and the Kars Recreational Society which jointly sponsored the summer’s research by Lynn Reicker. Lynn, a third year student at St. Thomas University, was doing the research under a grant from Canada Summer Jobs. They are organizing the summer’s research into a book for publication later this fall. 3663

POINT OF VIEW THE NAME GAME What's in a name? It's an important question to ask yourself when bunching a group of letters together to form a name. Names define us people and they have the power to shape our self-esteem and identity. A simple name, right or wrong, influences how your child is seen and treated by others. It's difficult to say what gives a name choice so much weight. But, most likely it's the permanence of the decision. Like it or hate it, you're most likely stuck with your given name for your entire life. Personally, I think it's cruel to bestow a handle on a kid that they'll be made fun of or criticized for forever. There are plenty of roadblocks to get through on the path through life without being handed a life sentence for having a bad name. Once upon a time, parents chose traditional names like Michael, Sarah and Elizabeth for their children. Now, more than ever, parents feel the need to look
for unique and trendy names or spellings of names to give their mini-me. While there is nothing wrong with wanting to be different, your child's personality, not their name, should be what sets them apart from everyone else. Don't change the spelling of a seemingly normal name, just because you like how it looks. Your child will spend forever correcting the spelling and being questioned about why it's spelled that way. Luckily, I only had to make a naming decision one time. I can remember poring over names for many months before finally settling on my daughter's name - Olivia. It was a somewhat traditional name, but not very common in 2000. Today, it's among the top five baby names. Celebrities, more than anyone, have a knack for choosing cruel and unusual names for their kids. They don't get enough attention already, so they feel the need to name their kids something dumb. I leave you with a few examples to ponder, and be thankful you didn't choose these for your child. Actress Gwyneth Paltrow named her
daughter Apple! Why? Because apples are sweet, wholesome and Biblical! Michael Jackson named his first son Prince Michael, which is fine, if you're a prince. Then, he named his second son Prince Michael II – but they call him Blanket for short. And, what can I say about musician Frank Zappa's offspring? Diva Thin Muffin, Dweezil and Moon Unit – I'm speechless too! The not-so-honourable mentions go to attention loving Kim Kardashian (still not sure why she's famous) and her musician husband, Kanye West, for naming their poor child North West! And actor/director, Rob Morrow named his daughter (are you ready for this?) Tu Morrow! I guess it's better than Mary Christmas! 0032

OBITUARIES GANONG, Rita Eileen Surrounded by her family, Rita Eileen Ganong (Stanley) of Kiersteadville, age 88, wife of Paul Ganong, passed away at the Saint John Regional Hospital on June 24, 2015. She was born in Hampton NB, on July 26 1926, the daughter of the late Milton and Mabel Stanley. Rita finished High School in Hampton in 1944 and went on to Business College at a time when most didn’t finish past Grade 8. Following this she worked as a stenographer for a short while at Red Rose Tea Company. Her keen mind continued to be evident in Scrabble games of later years. Rita enjoyed church and for the last
20 years attended Hatfield Point Baptist where she from time to time played for Sunday Service. Over the years, she and Paul made many trips out west which she would talk about with great fondness. As a young girl, Rita cleaned house for a local piano teacher in trade for music lessons. Rita became an accomplished pianist and delighted various congregations and her family. She lived a full life and was a hard worker, who enjoyed her family, driving her car, going to Tim Hortons, making bread which she shared with family and friends which most said was the best they had ever eaten. She enjoyed talking on the phone; it was truly her lifeline. Rita is survived by her children: Paulette and Garnie Boyd, Hatfield Point; Ronnie and Susan, Kiersteadville; Cathy and Fraser Morrell, Hatfield Point; Bonnie and Doug Bates, Quispamsis; Tammy and Troy Duplessis, Riverbank. 18 grandchildren, 37 great-grandchildren and 1 great-great-grandchild. Brothers: Curtis Stanley, Kiersteadville; Keith
Stanley, Quispamsis; Ronald Stanley, Woodstock. Sisters: Lois Bartlett, St Stephen; Shirley Flegg (Murray), Hatfield Point; Glenna Ronson, Ontario. Sister-in-law Shirley Stanley (Roy), Hampton, several nieces and nephews. She was predeceased by her sons Terry and Jeffrey; brothers George, Murray and Roy and sisters Lillian, Evelyn, Jean and infant twin sisters. The funeral for Rita Eileen Ganong, wife of Paul Ganong of Kiersteadville, was held June 27 at Outreach Pentecostal Church, Hatfield Point NB. Celebrants were Rev. Preston Mowry and Rev. Dwight Cole; music by April Nice. Active Pallbearers were grandsons: Todd Boyd, Adam McDonald, Rob McDonald, Michael Ganong, Jason Ahearn, Patrick Ahearn, John Clark and Jeffrey Ganong. Honorary Pallbearers were granddaughters; Diane McMillan, Amy McDonald, Marsha Boyd Mitchel and Becky Ganong. Special music was provided by Rita’s brother, Ronald Stanley and family
LOOK GOOD FEEL BETTER We believe that if a woman with cancer can be helped to look good, chances are she’ll feel better, her spirits will be lifted and she’ll be empowered to face her illness with greater confidence. We like to call it a ‘makeover for the spirit’. Look Good, Feel Better workshops are held on the third Monday of each month from 1:30-3:30pm. This program is geared towards patients experiencing skin and hair changes due to radiation and/or chemotherapy. The workshop is free of charge and is held in the Oncology Conference Room at the Saint John Regional Hospital.

OBITUARIES friend, George Howe. Family reflections were shared by Rita’s sister, Lois Bartlett, while memories were presented by grandson, Trent Boyd. A private family committal service took place in Bayview Cemetery with prayers by Rev.

IN THE GARDEN INCENTIVE TO LEAD A GOOD LIFE! If the recent blistering heat could be a foretaste of the alternative to Heaven, then I imagine that we will all be striving to lead the ‘Good Life’! Certainly the gardens are suffering in the intense heat and where so many of us are dependent on wells for our water, the hope of watering the gardens has long gone; farmers are struggling to maintain the crops and we will doubtless soon be paying a higher than ever price for fresh fruit and vegetables. Despite these rather dismal words, the Black Currant plants seem to be doing well and yielding great crops; now is the time to put away some tasty morsels to brighten the season that will eventually follow Fall, ( I dare not write the word). Quite the nicest use for the harvest is, to my mind, the making of jelly. Black Currants are very high in Vitamin C and have a delightfully sharp taste and
deep flavour. A good spoonful of the jelly placed in a mug of steaming hot water is a delicious way of warding off a seasonal cold. The fruit can be used in a multitude of ways and can be frozen ‘as is’, then processed when work in the garden is a thing of the past. It’s wise to do the pruning at the same time as harvesting; basically, the oldest fruit bearing stems should be cut right down to the ground and a combination of first and second year stems, about 18 or so, need to be kept for the next season’s production. If too many stems are kept the next harvest will be less abundant, ‘less is more!’ These instructions work for Red and White Currants as well. By pruning at this time the bush is able to better sustain the remaining stems under these drought conditions. Another way to preserve water for the advantage of the plants, would be in the Strawberry patch; these tasty treats are a great deal of work but again, less is more. Many of the runners that are taking nourishment from the parent

plant need to be snipped off; by now they will be rooting themselves and the contest for nourishment will be on. A maximum of four runners per plant is the generally accepted number to keep and all the rest should be chopped off and discarded. The four lucky chaps that ‘won the lottery’ can be planted out when they have made good root systems and a new bed will be in the making. The dry hot weather has the slug population fairly discouraged, however Red Lily Beetles are still on the rampage, they and the pesky cucumber beetles can be packed off to ‘Kingdom Come’ with a spray of 1 T of dish detergent to 1L of Water.

DOLLARS & SENSE BACK TO SCHOOL & Your Money Dare I say that it is already back to school? I know some will be rejoicing, while some of us are wondering what happened to the summer. While September marks the
beginning of a new school year and new discoveries through learning, there are ways at home that parents can help increase their child’s financial literacy. Let’s take back to school shopping. You likely have a list from the teacher as well as a list of what did not survive the prior school year intact; this is a

great time to sit with your child and determine the budget for what will be spent on these items. Some ideas are: -Scan flyers with your child to determine price and where you will shop. -Prioritize the list from mandatory items to nice to have items, and have your child make decisions on where their items fit on the list. -Discuss ideas on how you can save on cost. -Set a limit on how much you are willing to spend. Activities such as these give a child an understanding that items have cost and that there are decisions that need to be made when making purchases. You can give additional options of having your child contribute when a need starts to turn into a want. For instance, they need a book bag; an average book bag is $20, they want a themed book bag costing an additional $15. Options that can be given are, you would match cost, or they would need to pay the amount over the cost of an average book bag. The same method used with supplies can also be with clothes for back to school. Make a list of items, estimate cost and then set a budget before you head out shopping. The key to success is involvement in financial decisions to create awareness that behind that card swipe is not an infinite amount of money. Setting realistic limits in spending will assist children in making future financial decisions and seeing the value in what was purchased. I know life is busy and it can be easier to pick up items on the way home from work, but I do encourage you to start incorporating some of these ideas. The benefits of the financial skills learned from this exercise include budgeting, evaluating needs and wants, savings and decision making. This also opens the opportunity to have discussions on consumerism, credit and financial behaviours. 0005 Tamara Kelly Director of Education Credit Counselling Services of Atlantic Canada
ASK THE CHEF PREPARING YOUR MUSSELS Colin Sifton here again with another answer to your questions. This week we were talking with some customers about preparing mussels. What is safe and how should they be prepared? Mussels are a favourite appetizer in this part of the world all year round. The first thing I will warn you about is having live, clean mussels. This is a big problem when preparing mussels because eating a dead mussel, before it is cooked, will make your stomach upset and even cause vomiting. It usually doesn’t last very long, like salmonella, but it will ruin your meal and night. So how do you make sure the mussel is still alive when you are preparing to cook them? A mussel will be closed tightly if it is still alive. What we do is rinse the mussels in cold water. Since they are salt water species, you cannot leave the mussel in the fresh water too long, but
for the time it takes to clean them, you will be fine. So as you are rinsing them, find all the ones that are closed tightly and set aside. You may find some that are open, but this doesn’t mean they are dead. Best way to make sure is to bang the open ones against the table. If they are alive, they will start to close. If they are dead, they will not. Discard the dead ones and place your clean live ones in a bowl. If you are not ready to start cooking, cover with a damp cloth and place in the fridge. Another reason we rinse and wash the mussel is to improve taste. These are animals and animals do what all animals do (I’ll let your imagination fill in the blanks), so always give a good rinse. So how do we cook mussels? Well the options are endless. You can bake them, steam them, fry them, put them in pasta or any other dish. This is the second stage of making sure mussels were alive before cooking. Once a mussel is cooked, it will open. If it was dead prior to cooking it will not. Never force open
a mussel, it was dead prior to cooking. The most common way to prepare mussels is to steam them. A simple but tasty way is to have a hot pot ready, add some oil or garlic butter and as many mussels as you wish. Add chopped onions, garlic and parsley. Pour in a good splash of white wine and cover for a few minutes - about two or three minutes. Don’t over cook them because they will shrink and not be as full of flavour. Pour all contents into the bowl, liquid and all. Serve with garlic butter. If you want to get inventive, change up the flavour by adding curry powder or sweet chilli. Change the a l c o h o l by using pernod, vodka, or schnapps. Enjoy! 0040

LIVE WELL MAKING PEACE WITH YOUR PAST Have you ever over-reacted at work or in a personal situation to something someone said or did, and then found yourself at a loss as to why you became so upset? Part of the reason is because many of our current relationship issues, feelings, traits and behaviours are actually greatly shaped by past life events. The truth is, our past will keep affecting our future until we become aware that the two are connected. Gentle Path Counselling Services is offering a oneday workshop for adults who have struggled with anger, fear and resentment as a result of an unhappy childhood, failed relationships or a past history of abuse, disappointments or
hurt. It is not always easy to let go of one’s past or to make peace with experiences that wounded us or left us wondering, “Why is this happening to me?” Sometimes what helps is to embrace our story for what it is and for what it can teach us. It is not always an easy task, but it is one that can teach us great wisdom. You are invited to come to this oneday workshop where your heart will be given the chance to speak, and where you can find a new way of making peace with your past, on Friday, October 30 from 9:30am to 4:00pm at Church of the Good Shepherd (small hall); 668 Manawagonish Road.

Planning Ahead The best time to begin making your prearrangements is now, while you’re thinking about it. By taking the time now to collect the information and calmly make choices related to your own funeral arrangements, you’ll be protecting your family against the stress of having to make these decisions at an extremely emotional time. This ensures you plenty of time to carefully choose the items you want and need. Today more and more individuals are making the decision to prearrange their funerals than ever before, because of such factors as inflation, fewer family members living close by and peace of mind.

On that list, I wrote: rock star, astronaut and/ or veterinarian. When I was that age, I danced like no one was looking & didn't care what people thought of my vocal abilities.

to care and stopped singing - it actually became my biggest fear. Funny how it took so many years for me to come back full circle and realize that 5 year old me knew the answers all along.” Apryll enthusiastically tells when answering what were her earliest memories of wanting to be a musician and songwriter. “Songwriting & writing comes first nature to me - I've kept a journal since I can remember (and actually have all of them to date”. She elaborates on the creative process. I have always been intrigued in solo female songwriters. My first music business gig was working with Alanis Morisette’s first manager in Ottawa. I think that is where it started. That and other females pop stars including Madonna, Cyndi Lauper to name a few. “In my late teenage years, I really connected with Chantal Kreviazuk and Sarah McLachlan's music”. Apryll says in expanding on her own earlier musical influences. I wanted to know how she felt her individual music and vision would fit into today’s music business model? Tough one I know! “This is a great question, the vibe of the album is very uplifting and sounds like Norah Jones teamed up with Grace Potter and hired the Dave Matthews Band to jam out in the studio! Haha”. “I've been describing it to people as a soulful pop genre. The song "Butterflies" that I wrote for Cayman Grant's short film "Butterflies" will be featured on the album - this song started my musical relationship with Producer Kenny Munshaw in Toronto. He has lent his production knowledge to the album and I can't wait to share it with you in the Fall!” Saint John has been an integral part of my music career - it has given me a launch pad to grow and develop who I am as an artist. I would very much like to represent my community on a global scale.” Maybe I (We) are in the midst of the next “Alanis”? Only this time it’s Apryll! 0041

FUND RECIPIENT OFF TO CAMP The YMCA of Greater Saint John's Camp Glenburn provides a wonderful camping experience and lasting memories for those fortunate to attend the only overnight Y camp in New Brunswick. David Walker spent many happy summers at Camp Glenburn as a camper, counsellor-in-training and counsellor. He loved the outdoors and it was at Glenburn that he honed his outdoor skills - swimming, canoeing, hiking, climbing, working as a team, and making friends. At the age of 17, when David found out that he had brain cancer, he decided to live his life as close to normal as possible, working hard, enjoying time with his friends, and seeking outdoor adventure. During the 10 years he was ill, Dave’s Glenburn pals walked with him on his journey. After his death in 2011, David’s family and friends established a fund to support deserving campers in developing their skills in outdoor leadership by attending Camp Glenburn’s Leadership programs. This year the David Walker Memorial Fund recipient is Katie Barsalou, a 12

LSD KINGSTON KINGSTON LSD NEWS The situation with our ferries was in the news a fair bit over the past few weeks. Glen Baxter was talking with Bill Oliver, who indicated that he has received many calls & emails concerning the ferry and has been in contact with the minister. You may have noticed an extra deck hand on the Gondola Point ferries. The temporary measure seems to be make a significant difference in the traffic handling, as the line-ups have improved. I can assure you that your committee is concerned about this issue and we are keeping it alive by promoting and initiating positive and meaningful dialog with DOT officials and our MLA, Mr. Bill Oliver. We are soon to meet with them again to discuss ideas we feel could improve service. Representatives from the Red Cross were at the Legion in late July to
conduct a building inspection. I am pleased to inform you that our Legion building will be designated as an official emergency shelter/reception/ warming centre. With that, I will be completing an Emergency Plan for the Peninsula with input from our two Fire Departments. The benefactor group “Friends of the Peninsula” have donated funds to the project which will see a 22 kw generator installed at the Legion this fall, along with a new heating system focussed on the upstairs hall area. I would also like to highlight the very timely resurfacing of route 845. Comments have been positive about the good work, even if loose gravel and one fast driver did cost me a windshield! Your Committee continues to plan for the Community meeting scheduled for October 6 at the Legion. Items on the agenda will include: Status on the Peninsula - housing growth, students, population, ferry stats, (picture of
the parish map); LSD Committee - overview of who we are, what we are responsible for and what we are not, budget overview, what we have been up to and our communication strategy; RCMP - review of stats for the peninsula EMO plan for the legion, review what is being planned, when it will be in operation, location for and when it will be used. I will provide more agenda items in our next new publication in September. We have extended an invitation to the Westfield East LSD Advisory Committee to attend this community meeting as they represent a portion of the Peninsula population on the GBW end.

HAMPTON-PIGGS PEAK NEWS “Global wealth is increasingly being concentrated in the hands of a small wealthy elite. These wealthy individuals have generated and sustained their vast riches through their interests and activities in a few important economic sectors…” So begins a January 2015 Oxfam publication, “Wealth. Having it All and Wanting More”, that reports that the wealthiest 1 percent will own more than half of the global wealth by 2016. Put another way, this means the top 1% will have more wealth than the remaining 99% of people on the planet. This may not come as a surprise to many of you. We have all heard the stories about the enormously wealthy – people like Bill Gates and Warren Buffett. But who exactly are the “one percent?” The surprising answer: If you’re a Canadian you probably make the list. According to the Global Rich List, a website that brings awareness to worldwide income disparities, an income of about $40,000 a year will allow you to make the cut. This is well below the average Canadian wage
(and, yes, it’s even below the average NB wage). I remember being at a fundraiser a while ago and the speaker made a very memorable comment. She said “I have good news and bad news. The good news is that we have enough money to meet our fundraising goal! The bad news is that a lot of it is still in your pockets.” As Canadians, we are a lucky to have been born in a part of the world where there is abundant wealth and plentiful resources. At the other extreme, in Swaziland over 50% of the population lives below the national poverty line and makes less than $2 per day. On a global scale, wealth is unfairly distributed. The good news is that, overall, there are enough resources to eliminate poverty. The bad news is that it’s still in our pockets. I am not suggesting we can immediately

undergo a drastic change that creates a radical redistribution of wealth. However, as Bruce Springsteen once sang, you can’t start a fire without a spark. For a donation of $25 per month you can be that spark by becoming a starfish sponsor. Your “redistribution of wealth” will pay school fees for a student in Piggs Peak that will allow him or her to attend high school… and break out of the cycle of disease, poverty, and despair that afflicts Swaziland. Like the starfish on the beach, we can all help solve the problem… one person at a time.

MUSINGS A DIY PROJECT Like many (maybe you too) I have a long list of projects/to do items backed up and waiting for my attention. Some get done quickly. . . those with an urgency to them (the wheel fell off my wheelbarrow which I use to take out the garbage) or that are impacting on others (like meeting deadlines for Musings!). Others, not so much. One of those “not so much” items got done recently on an overly hot weekend that had me staying indoors to keep cool. Several months ago I picked up a fairly large roll of upholstery fabric at Habitat’s ReStore for somewhere around 5 or 10 dollars. The plan was to recover the seats on the six chairs for the dining table. The current coverings had been on there for far too many years and had grown faded and stained in spite of the numerous cleanings. I had been on the lookout for fabric
for months and finally saw this piece I thought would be perfect. Carted it home, and it was! Just the right shade. I did not make the mistake of storing the fabric away. . . that would guarantee it would never get to the top of the work list. Still, it has been months, not weeks, since I brought it home. The recent shuffling of furniture and “stuff ” to accommodate the larger fish tank had me placing the fabric roll in a more prominent spot so as to prod myself into action. Sometimes it’s necessary to do that, right? Worked, too. Of course, there is an ulterior motive at work here. I had mentioned to Michael a few days ago that, silly as it may be, one of the things I will miss when I retire from Ossekeag is the opportunity to “dress up” each day. Oh I love my jeans as much as anyone,
but I also love dresses for summer and dressy sweaters for winter and. . . well you get the idea. So. . . with the brand new chair covers it would really be a shame if Mr Hickey were to have them soiled before Christmas by sitting on them in his grubby woods clothes, don’t you think? Hmmmm. . . perhaps a new family tradition of “dressing for dinner” should be considered. “The finest clothing made is a person's skin, but, of course, society demands something more than this.” ~ Mark Twain. 0002
