Watching a show on a woman killing her abusive husband

<t>Circumstances, Umbetta, circumstances. At first light it would be natural to assume that the woman went back to her abusive husband, so she is 'just asking for it', or that it really wasn't as bad as she made it sound, which would not give her any justification for killing him, whatsoever.<br/> <...

Welcome, Richard. I, too, spend a lot of time in the dark--unfortunately it has nothing to do with my job, and more to do with wondering what is going on in my life.

Pantyhose for men

When my STBX was training horses at a local racetrack, he complained about the cold. I suggested pantyhose for him. He tried them and said they worked wonders. A lot of the jockeys wear them as well.
