Heh!
It seems like to me it's getting really hard, especially for Matthew. He's studying Ratio and Proportions. I think they are trying to challenge him right here at the end of the school year.
Only one way to study that... PIE!
mmmm pie....
If he were older, I'd imagine they could use Anna Kournikova in the lesson somewhere. ;~D
Well, we could, but I tape the lessons one week and we watch them the next while the next week's lessons are taping...does that make sense? We do Bob Jones Homesat.

Awesome ! Awesome !!!!!!........ I'll drop ya the duckets for the Becker Tool in the AM with some extra to support your knife program..........ya made me feel good with that gift. Better than you'll ever know.
Thank You......
Kinda like the trip home from Desert Storm when thousands of strangers , hugged me, shook my hand, cried and gave me help with my gear, some kid that tried to carry my 100 pound ruck and 4 other kids jumped in to help him drag it to a redcap's cart.......... That to me was better than all the gold, the awards or paper praise that one could receive for their service. Your gift reminded me of that time when I experienced the praise America showed me in person.........thanks !!
Bless ya Sir ........Squantos !!
Thank you for your service, Squantos!!!
Rick, I did see that you've begun populating the Bloggit Hole. If you'd like help uploading your many back posts here so they are there also, I'd be happy to. Hubby just has to build me a permission!
Excellent work gentlemen. Thanks to you both.
The schedule is one reason I wouldn't like a video lecture series (the other being that I expect at least one of my kids to be like me, better able to understand the written word than the spoken word).
Mom always had us on a year-round school schedule, eight weeks on and two weeks off, with flexibility as needed for vacations, really nice days, and other treats... although my favorite "week off" is the one I took in high school that nobody knew about. I was working at that point on my own, with Mom scheduling me three weeks' worth of stuff and me turning it all in at once, and there was one week I just decided to do nothing but math (community college classes, less flexibility) and read a fantasy series. It was great fun!
Any questions, just freepmail me! ~smooch~
You're the coolest guy I know!
I'll wait though... winmag might be actually looking forward to populating it his way ;~D
Hey - You're goofin off!
I'll be plenty busy just putting up my ramblings on the how and why of knives and gadgets. You're perfectly welcome to start a section on feedback and testimonials we've received. With proper respect for opsec, of course. I think one way or another I've sent you all the good words that have been said.
OK! - I'll look back at it in the next couple of days...
They look well, no reported van problems, and even the kitty seems to be taking it well. I gave them breakfast, tunes and Vernor's.
g'nad: Lookin for some :) bona fides?
300WinMag: still looking forward to some sort of MiniShootMoot one of these Saturdays, but not this Saturday-- I have plans :)
Most excellent report!
*waves* Hi Rosie!
So where, exactly, are they, and did they give you any indication of when they expect to arrive?
Glad to hear the trip is going smoothly for them! Thanks for giving them a friendly face along the way.
They expect to be in Talon territory tonight.
