You would not believe the science test he's taking right now! It's so HARD!! Space and Earth Science. They're talking about heliocentric and geocentric theories and all the dudes that had anything to do with that...Ptolomy, Kepler, Galileo, Tyco, Capernicus,...I swear, when they got to Newton, I nearly cried with relief...I at least know him! LOL!!!

He just diagrammed a picture of the Earth with all the degrees and tropics and stuff...

It's fun, though...he's eating it up.

Tycho Brahe is a fun one to learn about. He died after a banquet where he had too much to drink, for reasons of etiquette could not leave the table, and his bladder exploded. I like to tell people about him at movies while waiting for the previews to start.
