RE: Erika and Charlie Kirk Fairy Tale: "Have More Children Than You Can Afford" and "Leave the Finances to Your Husband"

Ah! I had the same question. Wow. Well, they are banned anymore, right? Okay, I went and looked it up. The ban was lifted in '85. Whew!

RE: SEEKING HOPE | FICTION | (EN-ES)
This is such a poignant story, @neotopher. It takes me back to my youth when small objects or gifts carried huge meaning, symbolism and importance. And also, the end of a relationship was like the death,

RE: My visit to the Bougainvillea Garden, a colorful and beautiful space at the entrance to the city (Eng - Esp)
I love bougainvillea. We cannot grow it where I live because it is too cold in the winter. But I love to visit places where it grows. The bougainvillea garden is beautiful!

Ha ha. Such a humiliating defeat! Oh, and just a note. You might want to change felt-buzz to felt.buzz in the first paragraph of your post!

RE: The Talking Castle: From Otto III to Elon Musk
Wow, it must have been a truly magnificent place back in its day. It must be eerie to hear that voice over the speaker telling you that you're trespassing.

Sounds absolutely amazing, @litguru. My kind of place! I am a seafood fanatic. Last summer on two separate trips to the west coast, I ended up buying fresh fish off a boat — once in Oregon and once in

RE: A promise that still lives
This is a truly lovely story, @dusan.stojkov. I love your insights on life, and how our stories are written — like movie scripts with sequels. Your story of how you met your wife is particularly touching!

You did a very nice job with these photos. The black and white suits the subject well, and the dramatic lighting is really well done. Of course it is also nice to have a beautiful subject!

RE: When Dreams Stir Memories: Reflections on Fried Rice and My Father’s Love
I'm sorry for your loss, @leighdalisay. I understand what you mean by bittersweet. On the one hand, fried rice brings back the memory of your father, but on the other hand it also makes you miss him even
