Best T-Shirt motto yet -- on a crewcut 7th-grader whose parents seem to have named him after a heavy metal star:

I ride the short bus to school!

He's actually not a bad student.

More substantial posts will have to wait for tomorrow at the earliest. In any case, they will be intermittent this weekend. I'm driving to Toledo again to pick up the rest of my books (woo hoo!), either right after school or not until Saturday morning, depending on the weather report. Isadore is supposed to bring heavy rain even to Rochester.
