The first time I took my boyfriend (now my husband of 60 years)to my home we were visiting with my Mom, Alberta, who was sort of on the quiet side, as was my boyfriend. We had done the usual little chit chat and all of a sudden it was quiet and I think we were all trying to think of something to visit about. I glanced at the newspaper which was lying beside me on the couch and noticed my Mom's name in a headline. So I read the headline out loud and it said "Alberta to release her natural gas." (This was news from Alberta, Canada, but we were all a little embarrassed.
