Open Question: I am rescuing 2 kittens about 1 1/2 months old from an abandoned building, any suggestions?

Beebe bought the business after working there a year and Lucey sold the building to the family of President Kennedy. Beebe said the Kennedys bought the building because they wanted a business reason to visit Wisconsin where the former president's sister, Rosemary Kennedy, who was mentally retarded and lobotomized at age 23, spent decades at St. Coletta's in Jefferson until her 2005 death at age 86.

They "wanted a business reason to visit Wisconsin"? What can this mean except that these superrich self-styled champions of the little guy were looking for a tax write-off for their personal trips?

Resolved Question: Have you ever walked around barefoot inside a home or building and got really dirty soles? Where were you?

The worst for me was visiting a friend in college and deciding to walk around barefoot in his dormatory. My feet got soooo black!
