My son is 11. One has to keep that in mind. He loves doing animation.
I found this flash movie he did last night and published it.

I am so glad that he IS homeschooled - he's a wonderfully compassionate boy who just happens to like...DOOM. I've been teaching him flash for the last year or so, but I was particularly enamored of this one - it is fairly fast to load, and he's done a great job with his sounds, which is something he's just starting to work with.

I have to wonder, if he were in 'regular' school, could he even show a teacher his animation without being labeled a potentially problematic child?

"When Daddy is Catholic and Mommy is a Witch, what's a couple to teach their children?"

"By many accounts, Paganism has grown tremendously in the United States over the last several decades, which means a lot more kids are being raised Pagan.....

It's grown from being obscure to becoming one of the top four faith groups in the United States," said Reverend Patrick McCollum, a longtime Wiccan chaplain, activist, and instructor for Cherry Hill Seminary, an online Pagan religious school based in Vermont. Wicca has no central authority, and therefore nobody's membership estimates are definitive. McCollum, who lives in Moraga, cites estimates that range between 300,000 and 1.2 million in the United States — he thinks the latter is most accurate. Some Pagan organizations boast upward of fifty thousand members..."

Here's a great website if you love Santa Claus! The Canadian post is so close to the North Pole that they are the ones that carry letters to the North Pole.

Write the North Pole address and get a letter back, or, if you'd rather, email Santa.

There's also some nice Santa wallpaper, games, activities. Its a very neat little site that will bring a lot of kids and the people that love them a lot of fun.

The author makes a fiscal case for government funded preschool
programs. The book's introduction says,"...this study illustrates the potential benefit to the solvency of the U.S. Social Security system from ECD investment." That's right, the solution to the government's Social Security woes is to send kids to preschool. Government funded preschool programs will be an exercise in social engineering to make sure we have human resources -- a guaranteed work force -- that will assure future generations get their Social Security checks! If ever there was evidence that universal preschooling "is all about the money" -- this is it, folks!
