I wouldn't even sign on line today until after I had watched all my tapes. I put all my game comments on Adrienne's blog.
In other news Kelly came over here yesterday looking for help in writing his 4 minute speech for his speech class. I think the class is today. His topic was to convince people that the new Michigan tax increase on cigarettes is just wrong. I don't agree with him, but I can get behind anything. He had a sort of outline of his thoughts in about 10 sentences and we managed to turn that into a couple of pages. I had him read it all back to me and timed him. This gave me a chance to see which phrases he stumbled over and we went back and changed them more to his own words.
He was supposed to include quotes (he had one) and statistics. We tried to go online to state of mich.gov but all their information was about the last tax increase in 1999. I offered to make some up but he has that "I'd rather not get caught" streak. Not a bad thing to have.
I'm hoping that he will let me know how it all came out. btw his email address is KJSheedy@netzero.net.

I like Erika's statistic that 87% of all statistics are made up on the spot.
How lucky Kelly is to have someone willing to help him. What made him think to come to you?
He thinks I'm smart and I try to perpetuate that impression.
