SmARTyTails *:X

                                                      


                                                      In fair Verona, where we lay our scene,
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean.
From forth the fatal loins of these two foes
A pair of star-cross'd lovers got it on;
Whose misadventured piteous overthrows
Did cause their parents' and others great strife and woe
The fearful passage of their death-mark'd love,
And the continuance of their parents' and others' rage,
Which, but their children's end, might could remove,
But we'll never know.

Once upon a time...whilst reading journals, and blogs, and books, and newspaper articles, and Internet surfing about spies, and conspiracies, and deadly nightclub fires, and super expensive yachts decorated with stuff like machine guns and rifles, and
2 boat-loads of saboteurs sneaking ashore in the middle of the night in Florida and Long Island, and super rich and famous people like John Fitzgerald Kennedy, and Inga Arvad, and Timothy (John Fitzgerald) McCoy, and Buck Jones, and Joseph Timilty, and Joseph Kennedy, and Bernard Baruch, and the mysterious Dr. Marius Petersen,  and Axel Wenner-Gren, and Frank Waldrop, and Cissy Patterson, and Clare Boothe Luce, and on- and-on- and-on...a somewhat sweet, simple, elderly lady just happened to stumble upon another sweet, simple, elderly, FAMOUS lady who actually knew all of the aforementioned folks, and all about the aforementioned 'incidents' because she was a well-known newspaper journalist. 
So sweet-simple-elderly-lady decided to write to sweet-simple-eldery-FAMOUS-lady and express to SSEFL her interest in the story about her she'd read on the Georgetown Oral History Project website.  And lo and behold...SSEFL responded via email to SSEL!  But was the responding email actually written by SSEFL...



To be continued...


Sweet, simple, elderly lady
