How do you establish online friends by talking about the weather?

I told Mama and Savannah about Ruben's proposal. That got us to talking about marriage and we laughed and cried some, and missed Papa, and it felt good to belong to each other. I don't feel as lonely today as I have in months. At least I know there are other women around me.

If there somebody talking to Toby about the weather in New Mexico or anywhere else, if somebody heard Toby talking about a good friend living somewhere else, they should call us. In isolation it might seem insignificant, but in terms of a pattern, it could give us another substantial lead to pursue.

I'm happy about the weather, ... I'm happy about the turnout. I'm happy to see so many old friends and new faces as well.

Sometimes questions are more important than answers.

We are seeing online social norms that support really irresponsible communication. Kids think that on the Internet 'I have free speech and I have the right to say what I want without regard to the harm it may cause,' which is obviously not true and is a message that parents need to get across to children.
