Dammit, he was supposed to live forever.
Seriously.

Ray Bradbury gave a commencement address at my college while I was there - not my graduating class, but I went to the ceremony. It was a lovely, tear-inducing speech and nice to remember today.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb
mac took money out of purse, lied about it, and then refused to go to the outpatient place because he did not like the consequences here and he didn't them there. fuck all. I am working from home (thank dog I never turned in my loaner laptop) and have cancelled what was to be day 2 with the new sitter. This may well be the end of the new sitter, I do not think she likes the idea of this type of thing popping up unexpected and/or what it would mean if it happened with her.
One stupid decision on his part - all these cascading consequences. Will he ever get it.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I just went to a cafe, which had a gaggle of 9 or 10 year old girls in it. Most of them had cellphones. Things have changed since I was a kid.
Do lots of kids that age have their own phones? Or is it because I'm in Highland Park (a wealthy suburb) at the moment?

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l
I think that's about the age when kids start to get them, since it's the age when they start being allowed out without parents, and the parents want to be able to reach them. Nine seems a bit young, but 12 or so, certainly.

My nine year old niece has an iPhone. She lives in a small city in borderline Appalachia Ohio.
Here, starting in 7th grade the high schools are city-wide, so the kids can be at school a long way from home. And starting in 9th grade they are required to use city buses for transit, no school buses. So I'll probably get my kid one by age 12, and definitely by 14.
