Wonder if TS may have suffered a similar childhood trauma equivalent to having her pet murdered, teaching her well: choose wisely with whom to do biz with?
Probably the only one, but I read “... (‘the’ Stanford) ...” 🤣
I thought D&D was going to be about your blue checkmark. Just kidding. D&D perfect way to end the week. Fair(lol) management, kill the goat, something twisted like out of a Hunter S Thompson piece.
"If “abiding by the rules” means breaking the hearts of children who are having second thoughts about a contract involving a 4-H animal, then there’s something very unfair about the state of affairs."
But you knew that Jane. And it's prevalent throughout our society.
wow! a nice run down and my BP went up quite a few ticks..... i'm constantly in awe over the conflict of legal verses ethical and a poor little goat-girl gets wrapped up in the same conflict! "can't we all just get along?" yet the shinning star of the moment becomes Taylor Swift? well i do have a weakness for pretty blond girls ~ so my BP is under better control now!
I am in tears laughing sooo hard reading this! (& I'm only to the bit about "we didn't have cake") Spitting coffee outta my nose, etc... Gonna have to digest this DELICIOUS piece (of cake?) in bite-size morsels, 'lest I expire before reaching the end!! GAWD I love your sense of humor & HTH you can consisently crank these out as often as you do is beyond comprehension (says the frustrated writer in me)! Your IQ is clearly in the stratosphere!!! heart! heart! heart!
Great article!! Jam packed with wit, great research, and nuggets of wisdom! Makes me laugh, contemplate the meaning of life, and wonder: who writes this stuff?? (Oh yeah, it’s her!!) #janewells2024!
I have missed Dumb and Dumber. Welcome back! You still have it. Maybe you should spend more time in Kona.
I always feel so much smarter after I read your columns, Jane. Thanks! Writing from Kona, eh? Good for you.

Good Stuff, as always...
I guess I’m out of touch on the worth of Birthday cakes! That must have been an organic carrot cake with buttercream frosting!(but still!)

Loved your dumb and dumber column.
Other than making you feel like you have a 9-5 job, this could easily be a daily column.

Glad to hear that you are still on Hawai’i Island. Is this turning into a extended stay?
