This is not a vent board or any other kind of therapy. Before you hit the POST button, ask yourself if your contribution will add to the level of discussion going on.
Important notes on articles:
- Please do not copy entire articles into your post; rather, provide links to them.. We are now links-only for ALL Internet publications. If only a small portion of the article pertains to your post, Fair Use allows you to copy those one or two paragraphs, provided you cite the author's name and the publication for which he writes. Otherwise, put a link in the HTTP Link box.
- Even if you're copying a reference to an article, provide a link to the page from which the article came. We're trying to cut down on duplicate topics, and the posting process will check the link to your article to see if it's already being discussed on this board. At the very least, you'll save yourself some grief on the boards.
- If your first reaction after reading the article you're going to share is the author is uninformed / stupid / a jerk / all of the above, it's not worth sharing with anyone. Not every article needs to be discussed. The more the hair-pulling articles are discussed (e.g. ESPN Page 2), the more the authors will write hair-pulling articles.

Thanks for Background by dillon77
Makes sense now that you specify those factors.
A few hours after posting this, I was wondering what happened to Daly, who had gone to a D1 college.
The academics and religious factors...check, given her HS background.
But #4 was the question mark: after all, she had put the years on the hamster wheel, so to speak. Maybe, the next step into the a very intense stage was something she didn't want to do. If that's the case, all power to her for "looking for the next best thing," as Warren Zevon once wrote and sang.
