Nursery Rhyme Heroine Victim of Eviction

There was an old woman who lived in a shoe,
She had so many children she didn't know what to do.
She gave them some broth without any bread;
She whipped them all soundly and put them to bed.

Unfortunately our strict Mother Goose disciplinarian - a long-time Howard County resident - is facing eviction and child endangerment charges. Ever since her husband, the old man who lived in a shoe, dumped her for Angelina Jolie, old woman has had trouble making ends meet. Recently, her storied house, dilapidated and careworn, has been emptied of her many rambunctious children, who are now living with relatives.
