The Maria Puzo of St. Louis

A few weeks back Laine and I were out for the day with her mother, the lovely Mrs. Kohl, of the Kohls of Missouri. Well, Mrs. Kohl was telling us of her doctor back home and his troubles of late. It seemed that this gentleman of a certain age had recently been left by his wife of two decades due to another gentleman that the Missus had met online. (Yikes.) The story came to a conclusion when Mrs. Kohl said, "She did come back; she took the horses, left the children."
