Highs & Lows

HIGH: Teacher Noemi: Jaimie, how old are you? Jaimie: 32. Teacher Noemi: Wow, I was going to guess 22. Jaimie: Forget Teacher Linda C., you’re now my favorite teacher. LOW: I’m on the train with Jakey in the front pack.  He immediately falls asleep.  Something smells horrible.  Great, am I…

Ten minutes with Google and I’ve uncovered a whole new world on Chinese face reading.  I think maybe Alesia and I should investigate this as I know she has fortune-telling transactional experience.  Is it frowned upon to take your baby’s ear lobes to a psychic? Face Reading: What Your Ears…

WWF

Question: WWFD: What Would Foochi Do? Answer: WWF: World Wrestling Federation. I’m not really sure what his stage name and costume would look like…  Maybe a rabid squirrel with a cape?  (Obviously given those cheeks and that drool.)  But, I do know what his signature moves would be (written from…
