If only time could stand still and when it resumes the slate would be clear...If only your words to the greater powers could happen our world would be a better place.

In response to "Holiday traffic "

It's not hot here but I agree about reasonable people changing into sadists when it comes to parking spaces. It's insane during the holidays.

In response to "Keep on trying."

I hear you! I do my best to do things well enough and I keep at them, but I'm not going to kill myself because if keeping at something useless, the effort I put in is useless. When I realize that I quit.
I admire what you did with the fish pond and it made me smile. And to think that you did it in one day! Wow!

In response to "Capital punishment "

The bible also says “turn the other cheek”. ( It’s full of contradictory stuff!)
It’s a complex question & I’m not sure how I feel about the death penalty.

In response to "Texting "

I think texting is detrimental to our communication skills because so many people use emoticons and abbreviations that when it comes to actual conversations they've forgotten how to use words. It drives me crazy when my granddaughters are texting while we're trying to have an actual conversation. I've said on more than one occasion what is it going to take to have your undivided attention. In my home, cell phones are shut off between 5:00-7:00 for family interaction time.

Prompt:
"Why insult someone when you can say something nice in a very sarcastic tone?"
Maggie Smith as Violet Crawley in Downton Abbey
Write about insults and/or Maggie Smith. Also, if you wish, how would you show a sarcastic tone of a character in a story?

How sad I was to hear the news of Maggie Smith’s demise. My husband and I have been fans of her since her role in the Prime of Miss Jean Brody. We immediately looked to see what movies of hers were streaming and rediscovered The lady in the Van on Amazon Prime.
What a performance. She must have been already eighty years of age when this movie was made. It brought us both to laughter and tears. It is based on a true story and I recommend it to anyone.
The script writing was great and sarcasm abounded but the written word is hard pressed to show sarcasm, it is in the telling.
