Re: College Visits
The Boy just got notice this morning that he got into Rutgers Business School off the waitlist. So glad he already accepted at Rutgers (School of Arts and Sciences), otherwise he'd have to rescind an acceptance at another school and resubmit his commit announcement on his school's Instagram page. T...

Re: College Visits
So, my oldest is done this month as well. He'll have his H.S. diploma and almost enough dual enrollment credits to have an AA. We toured Embry Riddle a year or so ago, as he wants to be a commercial airline pilot. Roughly $75k/yr, and you still need 1000 flight hours after graduation to get your com...

Why did people walk out on Seinfeld at that graduation? Has he made any public statements about Gaza? Or is it because he's, you know, ...

It may be that the reason it only came out as much as it has now is because the legal system demanded it (via the Cohen transcript stuff).
