| That kid is a machine!!! Wow, I really did not have a wild hair to see how long I could go without missing a day. I used to have my sister write notes for when I skipped school, she could sign the note like my mom. Hehe, was only caught once. |

| That is a pretty impressive record. Too bad you didn't go to my school, Aragorn, I could have used your sisters talents! I used to try everything, but my Mom was tough. Unless I had a fever of over 101, I was going to school. Eamon |
