Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I could barely watch that vid. DEEEsturbing.
I've taken my night meds and now must avoid another Ambiem/Rilutek postings. Thte sensible way is to turn off the laptop, but that goes against everything I believe in. Three machines on all the time.
And everything grammatically correct.
I should just close the laptop. But what if something interesting happens in the box?
Okay, closing now. See you on the flip side.

I didn't know turtles COULD make noise.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
Sara is indeed adorable, as is the house.
I want a house, but I'm pretty sure that's not going to happen for a year or so.

Clearly, I missed the memo about soaring into the 5 digit realm. Scary. Is this due to some of ita's tweaks to the code?
So, does this one goes to 11(K)?

All the gifted kids talk has been interesting. After just two months of school B. moved up a year, and is still coming top in everything.
We still have two big problems, though. One is that he's physically wee, a good two hands smaller than the next kid in the class. The other is that, now he's moved up, the school seems to think it's done all that's required of it, but he's already starting to get bored again.
He has quite a lot of extra-curricular activities but there are no gifted-kids programs to speak of here. At least he seems to fit in well socially.
Next academic year should be interesting - English lessons start. Unless he's co-opted as an assistant teacher, I've no idea how they're going to keep him on board.
