You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

Has this always been happening, or is tearing folk in half a trendy new thing for Aussie sharks?

It happens. Most attacks are more tentative, but I think we average about one fatality a year.

Bag the crypto. Say what is on your mind.

erikaj: I understood your post. I worry about me.

Tearing people in half in the land down under... Do we need sharks for that?

The message center link has gone away. My world is askew.

Actually, yes. Croc teeth aren't designed for tearing.

How are you doing? It's been forever since I posted with you (though I have been wondering how you're doing, from time to time).

Welcome Mallory James!

Hey ThreadKiller. LeePerkins had some issues with her subscribed threads after she changed her name.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Welcome Mallory James, and congrats to Raquel and DH.

Not being fond of kids is somewhat isolating as an adult, but it makes for an Emily Dickensian childhood.

One of my friends told me a story about her eight year old calling from camp one day with the horrifying realization that she had been stuck in a canoe with children.

Welcome Mallory James.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

Welcome Mallory James!

I had a lot of trouble socially in high school. I remember getting some information about an early college program, and my guidance counselor mentioned that I could take the GED and go to college without finishing high school. I asked my parents, and they said no, and I didn't push it. I'm not really sure which was I would have done better. College with kids my age was definitely really important socially, but I'm not sure it balances out the bad aspects of high school.
