Wow, I've never had an instant suspension from the Twitter. What's up with that!

What did you say now?

New CEO?

Are you channeling Lt. Provenza from Major Crimes with the Twitter, the Instagram, the YouTube and all the others?

I think he gets banned just for logging in to "the" Twitter. I'm sure they have a Polaroid of him on the Twitter Wall of Shame.

On the bright side, at least you're getting some productive work done. Scanning those old negatives sounds like a nostalgic and interesting task. You're even diving into Christmas 1965, which must bring back some memories. It's cool that you're taking the time to restore and revive those precious moments captured on film.

I have to give you credit for your resourcefulness too. Soaking those old negatives in some "magic juice" (Filmguard) and watching them come back to life is pretty satisfying, I bet. And the fact that the scans are turning out well after some restoration work shows your dedication to preserving those memories.

Sure, it may be a quiet and uneventful day, but at least you're making the most of it!!! So keep up the good work, enjoy the trip down memory lane, and make those scans shine! Who knows, you might even uncover some hidden gems from Christmas 1965))

Welcome new person!!!

"**** slap" in any context. It was immediate after I hit tweet. Cause I'm sure it wasn't the Will Smith part.

It must have been automated. Your phrase was censored here, too. The original version shows when I quote the post.

Interesting. it cost me 7 days of Chet's profound wisdom. Seems Twitter allows so much worse. Definitely the word i-d-i-o-t is a no-no as well. You have to acknowledge that you still want to post it in your Tweets.

My crazy 2nd grader( granted end of the year), had off Friday decided to do some multiplication. Also decided to lookup and write the longest words he could find for each letter of the alphabet (yes, he missed on a couple). He worked on that till 11:30pm. During the day he wrote down dots and dashes for each letter in morse code and wrote us messages. He then re-arranged each letter and made his own Horse code.

Here's what he worked on Friday.

This year he gave me the proud parent, I have no idea where this kid came from joy. Scored in the 99th percentile nationally in Math, and the 94 percentile in reading.

Well, you have that going for you. :) Is her head abnormally large? Not Travolta giant cause we know that it just filled with hot air, but larger than average indicating an abundance of gray matter?

You missed one spot when you were sticking black tape on his name.

He's remarkable for a second-grader, no doubt about that. The notebook pages show it.

I read somewhere that those don't correlate, leaving out mIcrocephaly, which is an obvious exception.

Maybe you should watch that lifetime movie, Switched at birth. Might explain things. Then again, there is always the alien scenerio. Was you wife abducted? Maybe she is missing some time somewhere?
