Hey, Teppy! You remember that marked-up version of a speech that Obama was looking at? You can download a high-resolution copy of the photo here: [link]
Angel: Will you just shut up for once?! Illyria: What? Angel: My God, the speechifying. Has it ever occurred to you that now might not be the best time for when-we-were-muck stories?

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
That sounds like a crazy project, Hec. Was he supposed to be doing stuff throughout the year that contributes to it?
Why is it, in an org full of people who escalate via cc when it's completely unnecessary, the one time someone gives me a critial piece of information that she's the expert on, she doesn't reply all??

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame
CJ is in the middle of a huge project and I am having to keep checking his progress because there is so much to do. They have been reading about Utipia's in his Language Arts class - Brave New World, 1984...
For their project, they have to create their own Utopia and create a wiki page online with the constitution, mission statement, flag, social structure, government structure and so on. I think there were at least 16 things. And the wiki tool they are using is a PAIN. Not intuitive at all.
Then, once they get the wiki pages set-up, the teacher will present each one, anonymously, to the class. If the class votes that your Utopia isn't viable, you have to start over.

Is any Utopia truly viable?

I know! Seriously.
But I have to say, the boy is one of us. He named his Utopia - Serenity Valley.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Possibly the "Kill the Stupid People" Utopia....

My parents had no idea if and when I had homework or assignments. I sank or swam on my own. Of course, I never had a big 40 page project in grade 8.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Hm. I wonder if that site by the author of Jennifer Government is still up. Remember when we all had our own countries there?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Wait, what? Doesn't that kind of miss the point?
