'Out Of Gas'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Hey, if I were a guy named Shirley, I'd have made myself scarce, too.
I'm still confused by guys called Shir (which becomes more and more common).
The gender of the word (as a noun) in Hebrew is male, but mostly girls are called Shir (for it means poem, or song). And then came the 90's unisex plague of names, yay.
This isn't a good day. But Nilly and ice cream and books will hopefully make it better.
I just opened Anne's House of Dreams, and on the first page, she mentions that you can see the bay from Anne's window at Green Gables. I'm nearly positive that was never mentioned until then, and that's the fifth book.
IIRC, Shirley doesn't go off to war until the very end. Besides, Walter DIES!! Susan's little brown boy can eff off! POOR WALTER!
In checking, Shirley is at Redmond with Una right after Walter dies. I don't think he goes.
Hivemind question:
Has anyone ever used a service to find a missing person? Not missing in the 'I lost him' sense, but in the, 'it's been 15 years and I'd like to talk to him' sense.
I'm leary of just submitting a credit card number to an untested online deal.
Suggestions?
I've not - I've relied on Google, Facebook, and MySpace. However, US Search is pretty reliable. My BF used to be a manager and dept head at their facility in Santa Monica. Them I would trust.
But what's more fun is that Gilbert is talked about a ton in all those books, and I was deeply in love with him.
Who wasn't in love with Gilbert Blythe? Ah, Gilbert.
Didn't Shirley sign up as soon as he was old enough?
We are not mentioning Walter. t sniff

Wish I was at home so I could check any of my millions of copies.
Checked a couple of sites and he joined the Flying Corps in 1917.
bonny,
If you'd like, I can access the online public records databases (if he's bought a house, registered to vote, etc.) those services use to see if he can be found.
Has Jamie Oliver been reading Lysistrata?
Jamie Oliver believes that women should abstain from sex with their husbands or boyfriends to punish them if they refuse to cook.
“Men are driven by sex,” the celebrity chef said this weekend at the annual Hay-on-Wye festival. “So the best way for women to get their men into the kitchen would be to stop having sex with them until they start to cook.”
