Now that I think about it, I think that the fourth and fifth year of any foreign language were designated as honors classes. There wasn't any non-honors option for those, but I guess they figured that, since we were only required to take one year, and most people stopped at three, they'd give the honors credit to people who stayed with it for five.
Who among us can ignore the allure of really funny math puns?

Our wings are not tired.
The state of Florida sticking their noises where they don't belong again. They have already delayed the child 2 weeks and may end up delaying her until it is too late.
The plight of a 13-year-old Palm Beach County foster child, who is pregnant and wants an abortion, is pitting children's advocates against Florida's child welfare agency, which has custody of the girl and has asked a judge to forbid her from ending her 13-week pregnancy.
The Department of Children & Families, which has been responsible for the girl for many years, argued to a West Palm Beach judge Tuesday that the girl is too immature to decide for herself whether to carry the pregnancy to term.
DCF has done such a great job caring for her so far in her life. It has to be child cruelty to make this girl carry a baby to term. [link]

Gronk. Too early to have already been up for close to three hours.
NYC is fun, starting teaching an Advanced SFX class in about 20 minutes.
So. Tired.
I think I just skipped about a bazillion posts in here.

What is even happening?
That's inhumane. I have deep philosophical issues with abortion, but forcing anyone--particularly a child of thirteen--to carry to term and deliver is hateful. Folks, if she is too immature to make the decision, shouldn't that raise the question of her being too immature to endure a pregnancy she doesn't want?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Katie Holmes, overheard. (I bet it's a joke, but still funny.)
Edit because this isn't worth another post: I just heard on the news there's a traffic backup because of a woman giving birth! Eek!

But don't you realize, that unborn fetus is of far more importance than any possible current human life could ever be.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I would get nothing done in my kitchen, possibly anywhere in my house, as I'd keep re-storing the knives.

Besides, if we let her have the abortion then she gets away with it.

I'm in the library right now. A guy just came in and is very loudly asking if there are any books about how to get a computer to mix chemicals, specifically organic and biological compounds.
