“We used to call this neighborhood ‘Cautionary Valley’ in the old days...where vague threats of physical retribution for childhood misdemeanors came to violent fruition. Get out of bed, play with matches, refuse your soup or suck your thumb, and there was something under the bed to grab your ankles, spontaneous human combustion, accelerated starving or a double thumbectomy. Of course, that was all a long time ago.”
