Ed Vebell illustration to “Loneliness Is Dangerous” by Harry Coren. “Alone in the midst of millions, the girl, who longed to talk to someone, stood on her fire escape as the voices of others, enjoying the companionship denied her, drifted up through the night.” Sunday Mirror Magazine, August 14, 1955.
Centralia, Penn was once a booming mining town, but after a mine fire broke out beneath the town in 1962, the population dwindled to 10 residents as of 2010. The fire still burns to this day. This town was the inspiration for the town Silent Hill
Black Cat Moon
This pic has meaning to me. One of my sons writes novels and poetry. One of his main characters was named Blackcat Moon.
I was never used to being happy, so that wasn’t something I ever took for granted. You see, I was brought up differently from the average American child because the average child is brought up expecting to be happy. I was a mistake. My mother didn’t want to have me.”
Famous ladies.
The Nineteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which gave American women the right to vote, represented the culmination of several decades of struggle.
Dylan Thomas. These poems, with all their crudities, doubts, and confusions, are written for the love of Man and in praise of God, and I’d be a damn’ fool if they weren’t.
Nancy Green a former slave, was employed in 1893 to promote the Aunt Jemima brand by demonstrating the pancake mix at expositions and fairs. She was a popular attraction because of her friendly personality, great story-telling, and warmth.

“People are strange: They are constantly angered by trivial things, but on a major matter like totally wasting their lives, they hardly seem to notice.”
Bettie Page—looking just a little less glamorous than we’re used to seeing her. The iconic 50s pin-up model was arrested in Hialeah, Florida—-following a wild domestic dispute with her ex-husband Harry Lear.
Bettie was arrested on 28th October 1972. Police answered a call placed by Harry, when they arrived on scene that found him and Bettie out on the front yard with Bettie hitting Harry, repeatedly punching and verbally attacking him.
Bettie would stay at Jackson Memorial hospital, a state mental care facility for six months spending most of the time under suicide watch. Harry would come and visit her regularly reassuring her that there would be a place for her to come back to if she wanted it. When she finally left the hospital she left a changed woman, she took up Harry’s offer and moved back in.
