It is \"Life\" in twenty-one scenes from \"back when\" the days were \"old\" but not necessarily \"good\" These mini-biographies depict child abuse; incest; a \"crazy lady\" who wasn't crazy at all, just perhaps lonely; a lady who was \"crazy\" and disappeared; several happy, intact families; a handicapped child who taught us all how to live; a sweet, gentle young man whose love of the ballet ultimately killed him; and myriad others all included here because despite the claim of a well-to-do neighbor south of our area who once declared, \"To us, those who live in your area are all 'pretty insignificant',\" well, everyone matters, and everyone is important.
