Why should an artificial arm be any more ridiculous?
The telescoping is a big deal. They're not just replacing a joint or a predefined length of bone, but something whose length they're going to have to increment regularly. That's pretty intense.
Ah, the pitter patter of tiny feet in huge combat boots. Shut up!

I think I just overheard a guy here saying he has 40 computers at home. I wonder if he has themed naming for them. Doesn't strike me as the type, really.

Especially for southern California. That's more computers than my first US company had.

You speaking of a bakery reminds me of how awful the vending machine is here. I tried to get Raisinets, and they were mutant Raisinets with powdery chocolate falling all off them. Just the one box, so I didn't even get to see if they were all mutated. Then I tried Twix, and they were broken. And then they ran out of Twix, so I tried the one remaining chocolate bar I don't hate (bear in mind, I'm driven to desperation to eat any of the above) the Kit Kat, and it's the large version which is the anti-Kit Kat, as far as I'm concerned. Narrow wafers. It's why Twix and Kit Kat are all I'll eat.
Oh, great.
I just shredded my tights. What is with the underside of the desk?
I am having the silliest grump morning.

I may have to seize the cat.
I also keep in mind with surveys of high school students, that it's the prime age for sarcasm to authority figures, and filling out bogus anonymous answers to boring surveys is kind of fun....
Amen. An imaginary person won the election for student body president at my high school. I was one of the people who voted for him, knowing he was imaginary.
Not just the reading but the visual medium will help develop his practical communication skills and awareness of non-verbal cues.
I recently researched this (well, comics + literacy) for a school paper/project. The processing of visual information is definitely a kind of literacy. Filling in the blanks between one panel and the next, knowing how to follow the sequence of panels on a page, these are important skills. (Skills which, despite years of reading comics, I'm still developing.) People act like it's news that comics are good for kids but educators have been looking into it for years.
