Fall--100 Words

Fall.

Been thinking a good deal about fall lately. Especially this week as we might see temperatures drop into the 40s.

Think about some of the ways we use the word fall.

There’s the fall season.

There’s falling in love. Falling down the stairs. Falling out of someone’s good graces.

There’s falling down on the job.

If you have read my many posts, you should know that I love words and how we use them.

So many words in the English language have double meanings.

Others are clear as can be.

And example? Simple. “For God so loved the world…”

Grammar Crackers

I am very thankful that one of my favorite bloggers is back at blogging. Heidi is a great blogger. She shares from her heart. If you don't want honesty, stay away from her site. She'll hit you between your eyes with unbelievable truth!

The other day, Heidi published this picture on her site. It is too funny! And, worth sharing here.

What Does It Mean?

Today is your day to provide the caption. Look at the picture again, if you dare. What caption would you like to give to it?

As you think, here's what the picture really is. This model is wearing a creation by Indian fashion designer Manish Arora for his Fall-Winter 2009-2010 ready-to-wear collection, in Paris, Monday, March 9, 2009.

You did get that? Right? Ready-to-wear collection? Are you kidding me?

Ladies, if you don’t mind, please tell me something. Where is this outfit ready for wear? Church? The mall? To visit your mother-in-law? A funeral service?

Feel free to provide a caption for the photo and to comment about where this outfit could be worn.

Some Things are Beyond Description

You know, nothing like this story ever happened to me as a kid. Never. That's good, I know.

It appears that a 27-year-old woman has been arrested on charges of distributing harmful material to a minor after a 14-year-old’s parents found a topless photo of her on his cell phone.

Victoria Ann Chacon, a former middle school teacher, allegedly met the boy at their church, where she was a Sunday school teacher. (The story just gets worse and worse, doesn't it?) Authorities at Somerset Independent School District said they found no evidence of any inappropriate relationships with their students; the 14-year-old attended school elsewhere.

The boy’s parents called police in March after finding racy letters in which Chacon professed her love. The boy initially refused to give a statement about the relationship, the arrest warrant says.

Several months later, the parents found a cell phone with a topless photo of Chacon. The phone was owned by Chacon and the two had been calling one another, according to court documents.
The woman was arrested Tuesday.

Sad, really, it is. This poor boy will be changed by this for the rest of his life. Ms. Chacon, well, there’s nothing good to say about her and the damage she has done. Hopefully, she will seek help through this. And, hopefully, she’s take ownership for her actions and mistakes.
