"And I'd much rather be researching at the Tax Table than baking cookies and attending PTA meetings."

A human being should be able to change a diaper, plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly. Specialization is for insects.
-Lazarus Long, Time Enough For Love

I'm working on this list. Oddly, I haven't written a sonnet yet.

If you homeschool, you never have to go to PTA meetings!

Good morning, everyone! I'm off to find my cat and tell her I've put another 3/8 c. of diet-cat-nibble in her dish :-).
