Have a GREAT year, Grace!! We still have a few weeks left until the school year begins. Thankfully, because of cut backs, there weren't any jobs available at the 2 schools where I dropped off my resume, so I'm still a "Lady of Leisure." Yeah me!!

PS. I hope you feel better soon.

One of the points that administration (and politicians) never seem to understand, what looks good on paper doesn't necessarily turn out the same in the real world. Cutting any part of an educational platform is NEVER a good thing.

Humanism is grand, capitalism is a fine theory as they go, but apeism gets results, or at least is the most fun.

Arrrgh!

May I suggest water ballons at 10 paces. You'll both get an even cut of the ticket sales.....

i second the sentiment, although i knew the expression as "Nolite te bastardes carborundorum" which apparently is also incorrect.

Which reminds I have to cancel my presence to a huge yearly Pillow Fight organized in a park in Montréal, because it's scheduled the day of the Toronto meet-up.

I'll make it next year, I guess!

I thrown mine out the window, everything became quite funnier since then. Of course, now the city is scattered with embarrassing pictures of me, but hey, it's worth it!

Do you really think I'm capable of insinuating anything?

I would never ever dare!

Goodness! I spend a few hours with my reader (and kids

) and the next thing I know, I'm scheduled for a pillow fight with a smattering of water baloons in a mud pit.
