HUH? Was there any conversation involved, or anything to indicate her train of thought? Not good at all, and school nurses need the money just as much as the teachers.

This game should not have been lost on that question. What does jealousy have to do with "aw shucks", anyway?

A google search (let's hear it for hyphenated last names!) shows here to be a bit older and from Rome, not Schenectady.

But she was at the real Woodstock - I guess the brain cells suffered some lasting damage.
