18129. thoughtful - 1/8/2006 5:31:00 PM Yeah, that's what I thought.
I don't remember how old I was but if I had to put it in chronological order, I'm sure my learning about Santa came BEFORE my period, not after!
No, she's not home schooled but goes to a very good public school...these folks live in a very expensive section of a very expensive town, and both husband and wife are well educated and making 6 figure incomes each. They aren't overly religious and while he's of a conservative bent having gone to UChic for his MBA, he's dumped all over W enough not to be considered a radical anything.
Perhaps the daughter is more like Ms No's mom or polly anna and just wants to avoid adulthood as long as possible.
I feel badly for the girl as she's just been diagnosed with severe scoliosis and is facing 18 hr days of being in a back brace for the next 18 mos...and that's the best prognosis. Otherwise it's heavy-duty back surgery. Not fun. Esp since she and her family are very athletic. And of course being that age, you really want to be normal and look your best. Not easy. 18130. wonkers2 - 1/8/2006 7:14:55 PM R con r cigarro,

How about elevator shoes, a wig and contacts for openers? 18137. Magoseph - 1/8/2006 11:41:10 PM I have deleted a post of mine, folks. 18138. wonkers2 - 1/9/2006 12:57:25 AM Cap'n Dirty sez, "Yah, and it's abserlootly true whatever it was!" 18139. Magoseph - 1/9/2006 1:19:07 AM Oh, good, so maybe you read it then. I thought I was being too personal. 18140. wonkers2 - 1/9/2006 2:04:46 AM The Cap'n sez, "Call The Cap'n if'n you wanna git personal." 18141. arkymalarky - 1/9/2006 2:19:38 AM I read it and didn't think it was personal at all. It was a nice compliment to Wonk, who does look great. Beautiful fam and future daughter-in-law, as well. 18142. wonkers2 - 1/9/2006 4:01:45 AM Mago, Arky, W2 was not in any of the pictures. He was the photographer. W2's younger brother was in the group picture with the bride and groom and the bride's parents. Rest assured that wonk's beard is intact. 18143. concerned - 1/9/2006 4:15:03 AM LW Attaboys -

It wasn't bad, considering.

Magoseph - 1/9/2006 5:23:40 PM Hello, everyone, finally things are returning to normal, which by this I mean that the regular train-train journalier (as my brother puts it), is back until we have to face the birthday celebrations the next few months.
