I want a Gargantuan Green Dragon finally.
You see, normally, I'd get all up in arms about something like this, involving the words "selling out" or some such. Honestly, though, this... is really cool, actually. And without even having opened it, I know that the Beginner Box (nickname: Black Box?) is going to be light-years ahead of Wizards' Red Box. I may even buy a copy myself. Once I actually have money.

Some school districts have no limits on in-school suspension. This terrifies me.

Serious, possibly gut-wrenching, question for the FaWTLy clan -
** spoiler omitted **
'Good' idea or 'Bad'?
Sorry I didn't see this earlier, E7.
1. How superficial these needs are on their parts?
2. How much risk does her presence do to the dignity of the proceedings?
3. How much risk her presence might present to her own health?
4. Within the scheme of how much you guys have to fight with them about, how much this one part of the battle is worth?
A parting observation: One thing I've had to remind myself over the years at funerals is that even crazy family members mourn, in their own way, no matter how freakin' crazy or incomprehensible those ways are.

My son goes to a charter school and has the "priviledge" of having school until the 2nd of June.
Just not sure what the point of 2 days suspension is when it's the end of the school year anyway.
When I was in high school, we didn't get cut loose until July first.

Amen to that. I wish *I* could forget those days sometimes... Remind me to tell you about it sometime since you're curious.

Good morning FAWLTIES
Its cold bleak and miserable here in Sydney (This is Melbourne weather and belongs back down in the Emo Hipster Capital of Australia not here in sunny Sydney).
The Queenslanders won the first game of the State of Origin Rugby League series. (The best players are selected from the teams to play for the state that they were born in or first played Rugby League in). State of Origin I highlights
My youngest is chucking a nanna (tantrum) because she cant find her wellies (gumboots).
Silverchair have gone into permanent hiatus because making music together has become unfun.
Other than that things are good.

See, I know you and I know what you look like.
I'm trying to picture you saying "Bless your heart".
Yep, still having a hard time with that.

I always thought the classic WTF policy was to give out a day or two suspension for skipping school.
"Wait! Let me get this straight. My 'punishment' for skipping school which I hate is to get two days off from school which I hate? Awesome!!"

I really try to respect that last part, but it's still not OK to hurt others even if that's not the intent. It's very hard to balance sometimes.
