<p>The second column from the right usually has all the Public Affairs/news release type of stuff. It changes often, so check back frequently. The feature photo usually changes every day.</p>

<p>Also, <a href=“http://www.west-point.org/parent/prospective-net/[/url]”>http://www.west-point.org/parent/prospective-net/&lt;/a&gt; Cadet candidates and parents can subscribe. It will become busier this Spring. After R Day, parents are moved to Plebe Net (which is very busy).</p>

<p>nova,</p>

<p>You gave away my secret. I really wanted envee to think that I just really know a lot. ;)</p>

5

<p>Oh! I’m sorry!!!</p>

<p>Actually envee, MOT taught me everything I know! :-)</p>

6

<p>nova, I like that a lot. ;)</p>

<p>I’d like to add that with parents of upperclassmen cadets as you are, we all benefit from your experience. Thanks!</p>

<p>My first guess was that every WP parent gets a one-way radio transmitter implanted into their brain that constantly beams updates straight into their auditory cortex tissue…but the website thing makes more sense.</p>

8

<p>I leave the transmitter at home when I go to work. That’s when I check the website. :D</p>

9

<p>Just saw Jeopardy. The guy who answered “What is the Old Grey Line?” actually won.</p>

10

<p>Wow momoftwins, you sure know a lot! I’m pretty sure that’s “hooah”-worthy. ;)</p>

<p>Ah, the Old Gray Line…Nice.</p>

11

<p>Sounds like a retirement home. Shuffleboard, anyone?</p>

12

<p>I’m always up for some Bingo!</p>

13

<p>I don’t know, the excitement is tough on my pacemaker. Maybe I’ll just watch The Antique Roadshow instead.</p>

14

<p>Oh, unless The Price Is Right is on at the same time. It’s a favorite of grandparents everywhere, I’m told. ;)</p>

15

<p>Don’t forget your “I Love Bob Barker!” shirt. </p>

<p>(I like such an a** when I make fun of old people, but they’re such easy targets.)</p>

16

<p>Just be careful not to make too much fun of the ones who still have their drivers liscences…</p>

<p>(Ooh…Yeah, I feel kind of mean. But at the same time, I don’t :D)</p>

17

<p>Hey, twin_b, I taught you better than that! Don’t be mean to the old folks or I’ll cut off your boodle deliveries.</p>

18

<p>Yeah!! Mom hates getting made fun of… jk jk, I love you all.</p>

19

<p>Quick twin_b! The enemy is moving to cut off your supply line! Counter-offensive! Counter-offensive!</p>

20

<p>Well momoftwins, I wasn’t going to say anything, but you have forced me to take drastic action.</p>

<p>But then again, I’ve noticed you’ve been watching quite a bit of jeopardy these past years. Didn’t Grandma used to watch that? I seem to recall one day she made the dramatic change from Jeopardy to The Price Is Right…
And was it my imaginaztion, or did I see a life-sized Bob Barker poster up on your wall? ;)</p>
