how many dead people would you think would be necessary before you'd call something a massacre?
Wouldn't it depend on context? If someone killed everyone living in one house (i.e. John List killing his family of five or six in the 1970s) that could be a massacre. But as a societal thing? I think it depends on how much of a specific population was wiped out.
vw--I was once stuck at Schipol (the Amsterdam airport) for 5 hours. it's a good airport to wait around in--they have lots of chairs and newstands and a McDonalds and also nice coffee shops. They also have a massage booth and lots of nice little shops. I'm sure they had a pleasant time there--and now they are winging their way home!

I would think so.
Em, there are some interesting things that I googled:
Columbine is considered a massacre.
Massacres of history: [link]
What makes a massacre: [link]
Don't forget the Alice's Restaurant Massacree....
Robin, good to know! Thank you.
Alrighty. I'm off to the hospital. Send the ~ma at noon.
I didn't think d was Dee, because d does post, not often enough, but still. I wonder who Dee is.
Come out, come out, wherever you are, unless you're intent on a massacre, or something.
Cindy's tag is making me think of yams.
Sending vw special early ~ma because I might not be around at noon.
Sadly, I'm a yamless sahm sham. But it made me think of yams yesterday when I copped it from beth's post, too.

This could be my tag into perpetuity. I hate yams. And I am such a sahm sham, it's not even funny. She says as the baby giggles somewhere in the other room, unsupervised...
I'm not big on yams either, but I do think they need to be part of the Thanksgiving dinner, whether I eat them or not, just because.
My boys are at school. My daughter is going in a half an hour (and then I pick up younger son). She is watching Mr. Rogers. I actually think Mr. Rogers is a better influence on her than I could ever be. But most of my shamming comes from the housewife arena of sahmdom.
Huh. I use made up words more often than is seemly.
