Is school out already where you live? The high schoolers are still in
school down here. Or did your kid drop out?
Uh, she graduated early.. Unlike your phony grandkid you made up that
spoke what, 4 languages one month, and was learning a "second" language
a few months later... LOL.

So why isn't she at college, learning a skill that might provide her
with an income?
So, tell us again about your Yale degree?
I have two college degrees. I majored in English for my B.A., and
minored in a social science. I earned a 3.9 g.p.a. All of the courses I
took for my graduate degree were for an M.A. in English, generally,
although I specialized in etymology. I had the equivalent of a 4.0
g.p.a. I also taught English as an instructor.

Etymology is not, by the way, the study of insects, but, rather, a study
of the distinctions of origins, habits, dialects and history of words
and language.

I worked very hard in college to avoid even a semblance of a trade
school education.

So, why isn't your high school graduate daughter in college, learning a
usable skill?

Since it's June, I'll provide your monthly response. By my count, which probably isn't too accurate,
you've responded to about 47 of my posts to others without a response from me. Keep this one, as you
won't get another for a while. You can keep responding to each and every one of my posts if you feel
the action doesn't make you look totally asinine.

As to your post above, I think you should buy an external hard drive ( http://tinyurl.com/cwjyeam ),
put *all* your accomplishments in a Word document thereon, and then store it in a safe deposit box
for your loving grandkids.

Oh, and be sure to add your famous line...."Self-praise sucks!"
That's funny!
