I just said that you're pretty. Even when you're covered in...engine grease, you're... No, especially, especially when you're covered in engine grease.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

How did the rest of the visit with Biology Boy go, Allyson?

This is the question that needs answering.

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

Batman and Robin

Pictures in Life magazine from the '60s TV show....

eta: Gotta love the TV Batmobile. That car, of course, was originally a concept car for Lincoln. I think the person who designed the Lincoln Futura (what it was called before it was the Batmobile) helped design my Lincoln too.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

How did the rest of the visit with Biology Boy go, Allyson?

Excellent! We went to the Observatory, the Getty (Rembrandt exhibit) had many excellent dinners, slept in, went shopping, and it was all very romantic.

I'm going to Toronto to visit in late Spring, I think, depending on his school schedule.

He was very tall, and seems to think I am pretty or something.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

seems to think I am pretty or something.

All right-thinking people believe that.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

All right-thinking people believe that.

It's true.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear

Hee. Silly Buffistas.

It was nice to wake up with a pretty boy in the morning. Ruby was unimpressed and wanted him to get out GET OUT GET OUT!

New in the Maker Shed: Fifty Dangerous Things (You Should Let Your Children Do)

Fifty Dangerous Things (you should let your children do) is the first book from the people who created Tinkering School. With projects, activities, experiences, and skills ranging from "Superglue Your Fingers Together" to "Play with Fire," along with 48 other great ideas, the book is a manifesto for kids and parents alike to reclaim childhood.

Easy to follow instructions, fun facts, and challenging undertakings that will engage and inspire whole households. Why Fifty Dangerous Things? First off, Five Dangerous Things just weren't enough (although the audience at TED thought it was a good starting point). More importantly, there are many "dangerous" things that are interesting, eye-opening, enlightening or just plain fun! And while there are aspects of danger in virtually everything we do, the trick is to learn how mastery actually minimizes danger.

Coding and Sleeping

That sounds excellent, Allyson. Well, not the Scholastic part.
