The CD was a little different than I expected, but I liked it nonetheless (except for "The Maze", which I loathed). He is amazing in concert; probably the second best one I've been to (after Heart). I can't wait for his NEXT album, one that's written free of 19 influence.

A lot of kids who are "hyperactive" just have a higher-than-average sense of curiosity or need for intellectual stimulation. I hate to see that curiosity drugged out of them. Homeschool Criticism and Support - Blog Entry11 Jun 2007 12:33 PM Ugh. The "criticism" I hate the most is the oral tests from people who tell you that their niece or some other relative in government school would KNOW the answer to the question your wonderful and brilliant homeschooled child was unable to retrieve off the cuff. A Cure For Snoring Or... The Perfect Father's Day Gift - Blog Entry11 Jun 2007 12:31 PM Thanks! I'm the snorer in my family, and get tired of being woken up. The Pressure to Perform - Blog Entry10 Jun 2007 09:37 PM Excellent blog, Valorie! I'm always amazed at how quickly some parents want to push their children out of childhood.
