    Another 20 years and our crew will finish Freshman Orientation at the University and will be about half way through the Registration line

    I'm assuming that there will be a time skip and we will pick back up in the middle of their freshman year.

    Yes to both. We were required to take a short nap. Also, recess was often marching around in a circle. We only had half a school day of kindergarden.

    I don't recall kindergarten as having a recess as such.  Started having them in the 1st grade of course. Kindergarten was half day for me as well.

    Getting to be too frequent hearing about celebs from my life passing. My 50th HS reunion is this year, and I'm thinking of going. I expect there will be a lot of the same.

     

    I've got 6 years before my 50th.  I didn't like enough of the people in that school to want me to come back to a reunion.

    (I stopped reading it when the real titular cats died and the cartoon critters, IMHO, turned from cats into tiny humans in cat suits.)

    Yeah, there was a real shift after they died.  Grant has had some other weird comics, but this is the longest lasting one of his.

    We did not have desks, but we had tables and chairs. I remember we used the for finger painting, and I think we had snacks on them.

    I remember having a sleeping pad and sitting on the floor for being read to.  I suspect that there was a table for doing "art" on, but I don't really remember one. 


  6. Anybody else noticed a trend for military YouTube videos being narrated via text to voice?  It's really irritating, enough so that I've unsubscribed from several feeds because they grate on my nerves. I'm assuming, probably with out cause, that some of you watch military videos.

    40 years after childhood he's still a young adult? He didn't SEEM a bit slow...

    (Personally, I preferred Emma Peel as the sidekick - several years before I figured out why. And I think she had a nastier side-kick, too.)

    Wait.  The Avengers (not those, the other ones) are canon in ANY version of Batman?

    So then squirrels have their own equivalent of the cat righting-reflex?

    Pretty much.  Which means Grace should have that ability as well.  Not sure if it will scale to human size or not.  Not sure if the big cats always land on their feet or not.  Leopards spend a lit of time in trees so they should have something like that.

    I saw a slow motion video of a squirrel being flung from a low powered catapult trap towards a net. You could see it predict where it would land and adapt to its trajectory in mid air. It was bloody impressive. I guess that is what a few hundred thousand years of determined evolution will do for you.

    From this?
