Admiral, there's a distraught woman on the phone.
What does she want Alice?
It sounds like your wife
Hand me the phone.
Hello
Sam? You've got to come quick.
What happened
She was in an accident. She was shoved down the stairs at school
Who?
Rose.'
Oh my god...I'm on my way
Emily's been in a stupor since the incident. I can't get her to talk comprehensibly.
I'm on my way.
Please Hurry, she's at Bellevue.

What did you see Emily?
I saw what happened Mr. Bukater
What happened then?
We were talking, and suddenly out of nowhere came Millicent King.
Okay, what happened next?
She said 'Die Rose' and then she pushed her.
Pushed her?
Yes. Oh god I should have stopped it! It all happened so fast
Here take my handkerchief.
Thank you. Is she going to be ok?
I don't know.
Oh god, if she dies it will be all my fault. I was powerless to stop Millicent!
Calm down Emily, it will be ok
No it won't, I'm a horrible friend.
No, you're a hero.
How?
You got help and you saw who did this.
That still doesn't make me a hero.
But you are Emily, and for this I am grateful to have you as my child.
I do hope she's going to be ok.

Just because you have one, doesn't mean you have to be one.

My damn emotional anorexia has flared up, again. I have a history of not eating as much as I should, when something is bothering me. I know what it is, too. Teresa. She's the superficial breed of NT female, who expects everybody to look and be prefect. I hope she never phones me, again if she doesn't want to be my friend. :evil:

i watched a show called "how it's made" tonight, and i was impressed at the automation in a pringles factory.
the factory is totally automated, and trucks back n and tip their dirty potatoes into a chute, and the potatoes get washed automatically, and they get peeled automatically, and they get sliced automatically, and all the slices get scanned by a scanner that decides whether the slices are adequate, and if a slice is not adequate (due to color or size) then it is blown off the conveyer belt.
the slices that are accepted continue along the conveyer, and they are dropped into a vat of boiling oil, and cooked for 3 minutes.
then they are lifted onto another conveyer belt that carries them to an area where they are scanned again and a machine collects them into bundles of 64, and ferries them to another area which intersects with the packaging side of the factory that makes the boxes for them.

but the process is then slowed savagely in a bottleneck because there are humans who put the pringles into their boxes.

i started to laugh at the fact that they had not automated the part of the factory that packaged the pringles into their boxes. it seems like such an easy step to automate, and yet they had not yet done it.

then i thought that possibly they are required to keep some laborers in the process of making pringles so as to not put every one of the labouroers in the factory out of work.
how draconian.
it is hilarious to me that there is an efficient production line that bottle necks around a forced human element that is required by law to remain employed.

Yeah, sometimes I over-analyze things and it's good to be reminded to stop thinking so much and look around and see what there is to see. Anyway, it was just my ego sulking.
