Lane. ln a dozen years, you'll either be Lois Lane, star reporter....whose name is synonymous with the Daily Planet. Or, Lois Fill-ln-The-Blank...Nobody? married to an insurance adjustor in the sticks...In the province? ...with four kids and 40 extra pounds. You won't look at a newspaper because it'll always remind you of what could have been. Madhulk Joined on Mon, Dec 17 2007 Bulgaria Senior Member 3,177 THE MAN OF STEEL Marriage, Relationships

(See Frost's famous poem, "The Road Not Taken."  "Fill-in-the-blank" I think here refers to the surname of her future husband. "Sticks" - Yes, the provinces I suppose they call it in other countries. A rural area without culture, interest or beauty.  Delmobile Joined on Wed, Jan 2 2008 Contributing Member 1,082 Marriage, Relationships, Writing, Countries, United States, Poetry
