I LOVE Napoleon Dynamite! My daughter introduced me to it when she was in middle school and we have watched it together and laughed with such tenderness again and again over the years. How wonderful to think of you sharing it with Owen. I love that your grands get to have to all to themselves, serially.37paddingtonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12400464105403622384noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-42484209701112484082021-09-17T21:59:39.208-04:002021-09-17T21:59:39.208-04:00It is a litmus test...It is a litmus test...Linda Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03070050388987072100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2086296370004835655.post-14951959437912577902021-09-17T21:38:03.277-04:002021-09-17T21:38:03.277-04:00I live in Pennsylvania, where our school board has...I live in Pennsylvania, where our school board has just voted to ignore the mask mandate, against the advice of the lawyers, against the advice of the local medical community, against the wishes of the majority of the parents.

Their company then issued orders that those who are not fully vaccinated by mid-November will be terminated. Period.

Okay, the early Europeans could tough out The Wild West with its wolves, its jagged mountains, its deserts, its swampland and its bears but toughing out COVID is a whole different thing.
