I loved it! I remember her doing the SOP - dol, as she would sharply accent "SOP!" then follow with the "dol" at a little lower pitch said in a softer tone and dragging it out a little - it would always make the hairs stand on the back of my neck... whatever hairs you have on your neck at the age of 12! We thought she was a little crazy - now that I'm older and wiser, of course I she that she was a brilliant educator and am grateful to have this memory.

Mine generally is... I like the part about her husband going into the house to die with her, though. That was either pretty touching, or implied interesting things about his apparent innocence. I enjoy how it's left ambiguous. Um… wouldn’t her wedding ring have been on her left hand? Mine generally is… I like the part about her husband going into the house to die with her, though.
