by the way , she does n't work because she has ' chronic fatigue syndrome ' and gets financial support from the government . she seems to have the energy to cook dishes and go out on Saturday nights . Jesus , i suffer from depression but manage to juggle work and study . Speaking of work , i work with a bunch of egocentric 20 something y.o .

A: What does the speaker think of the woman they are talking about ?

She 's only been here about six weeks and is from Ohio . She loves it so far ( they ' ve always wanted to move south ... she 's never been fond of the cold ) , and it 's neat to see how excited she gets about everything . There was an armadillo in their yard the other night , rooting around for bugs and such , and she and her husband were completely fascinated . One of their neighbors ( another friend and customer of ours ) hollered from his yard he 'd be glad to come and kill it for them ( he hates what they do to HIS yard ) .

A: What does she like about the south ?

i just framed my long - ago bought ' aht . ' adventures at the framing place worked out like this : i have two hand - painted gainsbourg portraits , both 11x15 inches . it 's an odd size , but not unmanageable .

A: Why is the narrator so interested in frames ?

As long as the protesters are n't attacking people in the streets , they have a right to be there and be heard . They certainly do n't deserve being arrested , let alone being brutalized beforehand ( and afterward , while in jail).This is not getting the press it deserves . Which is ironic , considering that the press should be freaking out at its rights being trampled , the way they freaked out at the idea that Judith Miller might have to give up her high and powerful source . Freedom of speech , in other words , is no longer the concern of the ones who are supposed to fight for it : the media .

A:
Why may they have been protesting ?
