Mine too! Bravo - excellent perspective and one I share. :-)

I have to admit that "hospitalism" is a new term for me.

It's muzzle time!

and additional i have to say i have very very strong deja vu feelings when i look at exactly these pic. even the doors and windows are deja vu. :O

Motts, ain't that right!
I did no such thing, did I?

some years ago i had a disturbing dream of right this place. in my dream it was a school, the building around were school buildings, the yard was the school yard and in my dream i and the other kids spent the school-break there, and the small building in the middle was the GYM!!!

Mark, i've heard the same screams you're talking about in the caf, but also in the theater. I've heard that lynx inhabit this area of Western Mass, and they can sound frighteningly similar to a woman's scream. I'm still looking into it, though.

Jesus - powerful stuff, mari!

I know a gentleman who has lived in an institutional setting since the late 1920s. He has had many opportunities to move out, but he says the place is his home and the staff are his family. He also worked the institutional farm when they had one - took care of the hogs, chickens, and cows, worked the fields, planted and pulled potatoes, grew and harvested hay, slaughtered the hogs, gathered eggs, etc. He talks very longingly of the excellent food they used to have and all the marvelous stories of what happened over the years since he has been there - some good, some bad.

Like mari says, now most facilities have food service deliveries, cook/chill units, processed food, "appropriate diets", etc.

Ah, progress - can you beat it? ;-)

the theater is straight back through adminstration. admin being what links the north and south wings.

I sucked no one!!!! I sware it!

~Me,

WAWAWAWAWAWAWAWA!!!!!

By the way, somehow that original entry mysteriously disappeared off this website. I can't believe you sucked Motts into deleting that! >:-P

Anybody who knows ~Me would not!
