You met Clarence Thomas? Well, I met Thomas Sowell, so there!

In other news, Bill got an improbably high PSAT score. We’re all still in shock. Probably not a National Merit Scholarship, but the Army ROTC recruiter is going to be climbing in throught dryer vent.

Congrats to Bill! When you've finished brushing all the dryer lint off the recruiter, see if you can get a written commitment for a branch designation.

My husband was able to choose his branch back in '73 at GA Tech (he chose Chemical Corps, he's a chemist). That may have been a special deal with Tech, don't know for sure.

To be absolutely accurate, I guess you can say I met him - if by meeting him you mean smiling and nodding in a crowd after a speech!

But I've heard him speak, and he's good. And I'm not just saying that because he's from right down the road from my parents' house!
