Well sure, all the family trees with weak constitutions were weeded out by the indigenous fauna in the first generations that colonized the continent! It's like all those Russian centenarians who live on grain and vodka, the winters killed off everyone that didn't have good genes.
It seems a valid theory.

Good job, JZ. I know that's so hard to do but what you did was so important.

Seriously, people, that mayor!

Why did Darth Vader cross the road? To get to the Dark Side!
You guys! I am such the proud mama. Frances, who is actually super shy and has incredible stage fright, gave a very personal performance today at school as part of an after school theater class called My Own Story. Each kid wrote a few autobiographical pieces which then were turned into individual skits or monologues. It was very touching and sweet and moving as each kid basically gave a piece about their own fears and doubts and moments of overcoming them.
I made a video but I know Franny would hate it if I posted it, so I won't do that. But I will most likely post the flyer if I can get it scanned.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
Oh, how wonderful! Go Franny!

That's so cool! Good job, Franny!

Thanks, it was such a cool project, and it seems like the kids really bonded.

Go Franny!
