Making my choices caused me chest pain. “Oooooo, I could use THAT one too!”

Can we increase the limit for this theme to, say, about 50 entries?

Even if we bumped up the entries to 50, that would only be about HALF my bees.

Have we officially banned sports venues?

Even the site where Three Rivers once stood? I mean after all..the Immaculate Reception and all that.

Also, I think that Heinz Field, and Beaver Stadium should be an exception to this ban. With all of the prayers inside THOSE two stadiums in the past year, I think they ARE churches.

I agree with the baby grave comments. In local Springdale cemetery they have this horrible name for the area where babies are buried. It creeps me out. Plus, WTF is coming out of the sheep’s belly?

Welcome to the forum gambitsgirl. I appreciate the courage it takes to share your story with an audience like Fark. I hope, however emotional the shoot was, there was an element of catharsis too.
