Keep in mind as weird consider it now back in the day they didn't have teenage years and went straight to being adults. Juliette would have been like 12 or something wouldn't she?

Juliet's age
One aspect of the story which now seems problematic is Juliet's age. As the story occurs, Juliet is approaching her fourteenth birthday. She was born on "Lammas Eve at night" (August 1), so Juliet's birthday is July 31 (1.3.19). Her birthday is "a fortnight hence", putting the action of the play in mid-July (1.3.17). Her father states that she "hath not seen the change of fourteen years" (1.2.9). In many cultures and time periods, women did and do marry and bear children at an early age. Romeo and Juliet is a play about Italian families. Lady Capulet had given birth to her first child by the time she had reached Juliet's age: "By my count, I was your mother much upon these years that you are now a maid" (1.3.74–75). Shakespeare not only explicitly had the characters state Juliet's age of between 13 and 14, but also subtly emphasized her age through numeric symbolism. The name "Juliet Capulet" has exactly 13 letters in it, and she is the 13th character to appear on stage. Romeo also calls her name 14 times in the play.[2] This suggests that he was putting importance on Juliet's age and youth to emphasize her immaturity.

I'm not that disturbed by it but I'm pretty sure age of consent in Iowa is 16 so 14/15 doesn't seem that big of a stretch I guess. /shrug

Medical advances and advances in farming have both changed that.

how are you guys/ladies
Fix it remix was good~
I've been on the phone with a friend who is talking with his ISP for the past hour and a half, Clear, horrible decision on his part but nonetheless, his internet connection has sucked for months. He can't even load a picture while browsing.
They've been giving him lame responses to his questions for the past few months, and he requested management.
After all of that, he got someone to check out the tower, and he asked when he could expect them to come out and check it. The manager told him that he doesn't know. He then asked if it isn't fixed within a week or a month what then? The manager basically told him to cancel if he doesn't like their service.
I can't stand ISP companies, I really, really can't stand them. I told him to change ISP's and stop suffering with this BS, but the thing is it's cheap internet. It was working great, better than mine, for over a year, and now for the past 2-3 months it's been close to dead.
