Different generations seem to feature a lot more meatspace ICMP messages, particularly for those who grew up with cell phones being a normal part of the routine.  Most of us on this site probably didn't have cell phones until adulthood, so it was different when calling home was a long-distance call and required coordination of location to make that call from.

I'm surprised that the cops would perform a wellness check that soon, but obviously she was able to convince them to do so.

As for the situation here, the only surprising part to me is that the accused murderer had enough of a home of her own to have a fire pit and be undisturbed long enough to engage in this sort of thing.  In my younger days I had some rather questionable girlfriends that she seems similar to, but none of them were well-off enough to have been able to try to dispose of a body in a firepit at home.  Most were apartment dwellers with roommates as they didn't have the income to have more than that at that age.

Perhaps.  I hadn't accounted for that.

I guess that the ladies I knew, none within those dysfunctional roommate-households individually were reliable enough to make rent every month, but usually at least one had the extra cash to ensure that rent for the group got paid.  That would end up rotating among them, depending on who had a windfall.

Admittedly I wasn't associating with these particular gals for their strong decision-making skills.

Probably overthinking it. Some parents and children actually like each other (weird, I know!), and so she just knows that it's uncharacteristic enough that something could be wrong when her son didn't answer her for 24 hours. It might just be normal that she'd text him and expect an answer back by phone, email, or text within a day and that it was weird for him not to answer at all.

Would've been a couple years before my father wondered what became of me, and my mother mighta been the one to have killed me, so I'm jelly of folks like that - but I also know they exist. My wife and her mom don't talk every day, but if she didn't answer her mom back for 24 hours her mom would figure something funky was up. It just wouldn't be normal for them.

It's a house, in that kind of 90s neighborhood that every city has. I could imagine it's her folks' house.

I lived in that part of Missouri for a while, and still have friends there. Apparently whatever part of the state does not have a major issue with opioids is struggling with meth. Too bad. I liked Missouri.

Ah, there we are. That is too sad.

"He was just a beautiful, sweet and gentle soul that didn't deserve this," Martin said. "He met evil."
According to Martin, Clemons loved a lot of things and a lot of people, but notably, he hated the song "Baby, It's Cold Outside" written by Frank Loesser.
"He thought that it depicted a man forcing his desires on a woman wanting to leave," Martin said.


You wonder what went down with the murderess. Probably arguing about the symbolism in Barry Lyndon.He thought it was an allegory about ambition, power, corruption and fate, she thought it was a fine romance. It came to blows, as would be expected.

My mother had a hard time letting go when I went to college. It was pre-cellphone days, so she called every morning and every night for the first few weeks until one of my roommates answered one more and said "HE'S A GROWN-UP! YOU NEED TO LET GO!" After that she let me be, but I know it was hard for her.
