Not that it would solve anything. It's just hurt people hurting people. But you want to.

Happy Halloween

Her grandmother found her. Terrible all around.

You want to grab a kid like that and tell them high school isn't forever. They just have to wait a little while.

Really sorry Burt. That is terrible.

My daughter had a shit time at school and I recall wondering more than once or twice how close she was to potentially self-harming. A horrible situation to go through but thankfully she made it through.

You're so right about "high school isn't forever". To see my daughter now, working, moved out of home with friends, living and loving her new life, it warms the heart. I'm so glad she's here and happy now, but I don't forget those darker days.

Again, sorry man. That's so sad.

high school isn't forever, but man, i think back on it sometimes and how intense it was. day in and day out with the same lot. and i didn't even have a bad experience overall.

It’s way harder now. They carry their tormentors in their pockets. There are no breaks. I think the kids have the best chance of avoiding it if they play sports from a young age. My youngest is on the small side and one of his two good middle school friends moved away so I was worried about how high school lunch would go. I know seniors who are failing afternoon classes they don’t go to because their friends have a different lunch, and they can’t bring themselves to face that. My kid’s best friend has a different lunch, but thanks to 10 years of soccer and basketball, he’s got dozens of familiar faces he can sit with. Since he went to captains’ practices all summer, he’s got upperclassmen who know him and look out for him. If you’ve got young kids, get them involved. I hated club fees and travel tourneys and interacting with other parents, but the comfort of knowing my kid has people made it all worth it.

different lunches definitely sucked. i had a semester where none of my friends had the same one, so i sat with some guys i knew from grade school for a bit. that kinda fizzled, so then i'd just skip eating and wander the halls instead of trying to infiltrate a new table/group.

then second semester that year, i ended up sitting with a bunch of girls every day, cuz my buddy had dated one and we had become chummy. when i think back on it, so many dudes must've thought i had serious balls doing that, but i was just happy to hang with a few people i knew.

I'm very sorry to hear of your loss Burt.

I think of myself as a teen and could not fathom what it would be like in this day and technological age.

dear god man. i am so sorry

Like I said I didn't really know the immediate family, but I know the grandparents and feel bad for them. They always seemed positive and upbeat, but you never know.

We’re working the Cyndi Lauper show in Nashville right now and if you guys thought Ed Vedder talked a lot between songs, you ain’t seen nothing. Jesus Christ, I think she’s talked more than she’s sang

She still using that awful shrill Noo York voice? Or she dropped that now?

Weird but funny.

Found myself being a tester. Two electric toothbrushes. By same company.
One is over €1000 . The other €35.
And had to write down the whole experience, opening the box and the packaging and instructions and design, all the way to recharging times and tooth glossiness and gum result and feel and on and on.

Long story short. Very long.

The expensive one, didn’t feel like anything was happening. I mean there is a regular kinda space age tooth brush head with bristles. They may as well not have been there. It’s kind of a sonic thing and does actually make your fillings rattle in your teeth at this ultra high frequency. Imagine feeling and hearing your entire jaw vibrate in your ears and head. It was a surrreal and unsettling exoerience. Imagine feeling a lightsaber (reys lightsaber-a very particular sound and that’s what made me post this. It’s that but in your mouth vibrating at speeds that make local wildlife run away )

The €35 one. Just a regular electric toothbrush but you at least you could feel it and no big deal but the job is getting done somewhat and there is at least the tangible vibration from it in your hand and mouth as it does its thing. No real problem. But couldn’t get to the bits I like lingering on when I’m brushing with my regular toothbrush.

Both were unsatisfactory but the expensive one was scary and didn’t work at all.
After both I wanted nothing more than to scrub my chops with my €3 ordinary toothbrush to feel it. And I did.

Moral of the story. Don’t let the dentist invite you to do anything. Ever.

Lots of curious fish, one end where the bridge had broken away the toilet room was exposed .... was an old WW1 frigate, so still had the 12 ton guns on the bow. Swam though some of the areas, and man it's tight on a ship.

Feeling absolutely wasted today and the weather now sucks, but I've two more dives to do
