By way of reminiscence on similar topics:
RantWoman thanks Ferrener Husband again for long ago recognizing that RantWoman would probably try to have a truthful conversation with people Ferrener Husband must have known would not be safe to have such a conversation around. RantWoman also sincerely thanks the lovely couple she is still in touch with for being really gracious alternative lodging when Plan A proved untenable.
Well, RantWoman can almost forgive one of the host couple for wanting to fire a teacher at the school the host was principal of. The reason: the teacher was too flamboyantly gay. So last century?
