          Large man is angry to learn Jolie is back. He should have killed her twenty years ago.
          
          Graphics designer, Jolie meets Bart at work and they begin dating. He discovers her sleeping on the job and learns she has insomnia. Nightmares she’d had during childhood returned after she came to Minneapolis. On one date, a psychic lady stops and spouts poetry, warning her to guard her little girl from danger. The only little girls in Jolie’s life are her nieces, so she panics and drives her sister wild calling to ask if they are okay and telling her to protect them. 
          
          Then the psychic tells the police where to find a dead woman and claims there’s a connection to Jolie. Complications and attempts on their lives continue as they fight the problems and fall in love. Can they solve the mystery, prove Jolie’s innocence before someone succeeds in killing them?

The republican/tea party proposal and vow to ban abortions sends chills down my spine.
           I lived through the 50s when abortions were banned. I know many of you didn't, you're much too young. So you have rose colored glasses on about how life would be in that situation.
           
          Let me tell you how it really was, down in the trenches of young women who had little say about their own bodies. Rape was common and mostly unreported. If a woman reported it, she was treated by police and many others as being at fault. She'd asked for it, was the common comment. 
          
          If a girl got pregnant, many times she was forced into marriage, whether she or the man involved wanted that.
           
          Or she could try for an illegal black market abortion. These were done by fly-by-night and often untrained people, willing to break the law for fast big bucks. The woman was led to a back room, aborted often with unsterized equipment and then immediately sent away, bleeding and in great pain. If she developed an infection, as many did, she was often afraid to seek medical help until it was too late. Many died. Others became sterile from the scars.
           
          Or a 'friend' might claim she knew how to cause a spontaneous abortion. A friend of mine died after being poked with a coat hanger until her uterus was perforated and she bled to death.
           
          Is that the kind of scenario you want our country to return to?
           
          If you don't learn from history, you repeat it.
           Remember prohibition? Did that work? LOL.
           Think about it. Take off your rose colored glasses and face reality of what would really happen.
