    Son's group finished 3rd in their grade in the Lego-lympics catapult contest. They built a catapult out out popsicle sticks, tape and rubber bands and catapulted a lego man out of it.

    Some of this is sensational reporting. It isn't like horses have never broken legs and been euthanized at a high rate until this year. It's concerning, but it is n't as if all of a sudden horses are dropping like flies for the first time. There were 8, 10, and 14 deaths at the track at this point in the season the past 3 years, and when it became clear that rate was rising, they brought experts in to check track conditions and evaluating the effect of an inordinate amount of rain. I don't know if that was responsive enough or not, but it isn't as if nobody was paying attention.

    I wonder how much of it is genetics in the horses?

    i've never seen the ground saturated in LA like it has been the last month. any sort of rain is puddling immediately. i have to think that's having an effect.

    You had to inspect the Hershey bar for any kind of hidden razor blades, right? I mean, you don't want to injure your son.

    It was long gone by the time I got home.

    Also, his teacher is from Alaska and has got him hooked on The Iditarod, so we've been getting daily updates all week. He now wants to do this when he grows up.

    I would have already gone crazy and probably had to be committed.

    Nope. The physical therapist was just commenting today about a knot I have in the front of my shoulder.

    Normally this would be me, but I'm so ready to retire. I'm tired of my job.

    Remember that time your son's middle school counselor calls you and tells you that your 12 year old just stuck a pipe cleaner in an electrical outlet, causing sparking and carbonization on the outlet and his hand?

    Yeah, fun times. Just glad he didn't electrocute himself.
