<p>I was sending out those thought waves, searchingavalon.</p>
<p>Jim Bock’s presentation was one of the many highlights of our day as spec parents, although as he was reeling off the impressive accomplishments I kept thinking “One of them plugs into PlayStation 18 hours a day…”</p>
<p>Beautiful campus, even in the dripping rain. We ran into The Kid at the train station; he deigned to say “yo” before striding off to join the group of new friends he was riding back with. Unlike searchingavalon’s daughter, he doesn’t exactly “glow” about anything, but he had a great time…and he is decided. The smoke has blown white; he’s going to be a Swattie, and we are thrilled.</p>
