[quote=senior citizen;590376]They don't tell people NOT to bring up the tragedy. It's actually cathartic to discuss it. We always listen with interest and tears in our eyes.....even my adult children. Better to talk about the memories and family stories than to bottle it up.
The biggest kick I have gotten reading TOTV is when so many folks DENIED that the lawyer had jumped into his backyard pond to rescue his little pooch that was truly being attacked by a REAL LIVE ALLIGATOR.
They denied the man existed, that it was all a made up story......even when the gator was captured by the trapper..........it was still denied, even when it made the GREAT BRITAIN (England) newspapers.
Does anyone else see something wrong with this picture?????????
Senior this is the first I've heard that people denied the man existed.
Anyone who has lived in TV for over a week or two knows there are alligators and they need to be cautious around ponds. It gets old when people who do not live here become authorities on how we Villagers think and feel. Oh and thank you for the psychoanalysis of why people who suffered a tragedy should be more open and discuss it, I know I feel better.
