My 17 year old son (Grade 11) returned from a school trip to Italy this week...

The trip was the end result of 2 years of major fundraising...(can you spell
B-I-N-G-O?)...they went for 10 days...had a great time...no problems except for the expected...like pickpocketing, lost passports, and a scarcity of bathrooms while sight-seeing...

...but I was very proud of him when he attempted to help prevent the Leaning Tower of Pisa from leaning even more...

No...no international recognition...yet...but I'll get on his case about it again...

Get your own frisbee off the roof! Ever heard of a ladder?

My house has a 2 story roof, and the Frisbee is WAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY at the top.

It's really hard to get up there. I once hired some hillbillies to go up and clean the eaves troughs, and it looks SCARY. I would never go up that high. I have a fear of heights by foot. Im fine in planes, but if you made be stand at the top of the Eiffel tower 1 foot by the edge, i couldnt do it. When i went to the grand canyon, i literally almost freaked out
