Thanks for the well wishes, but unfortunately, Chris didn't get the score he needed. He missed it by a few points. He was so close and was very disappointed. His recruiter said he could try again after 30 days. I told Chris to take advantage of the time and study

Oh I'm sorry Chris didn't quite make the grade.

How unusual - we have a public holiday on Monday too! (Though not for Veteran's Day.)

Thanks. He did take the test when he was in high school, but this time he did far better. I just need to push him a bit harder in his studies even if he thinks I'm being a pain-in-the-butt.

Monday is Memorial Day here, we celebrate Veteran's Day in November. We have two holidays to honor our soldiers: one to honor the living veterans and one to honor those who gave their lives in wars.

He'll thank you when he passes (or so I'd hope!)

Doh, so it is! I had a CRAFT moment (Can't Remember A Flipping Thing) - I blame 3 hours of work.

He'll complain and all that, but yeah, in the end, he'll look back on it and thank me (yes, he better!).

CRAFT - I like that! I have nothing to blame but a sinus headache. :\

I'm sure he will afterwards...

Hee! Of course "Flipping" is the polite variation! :D

Bah to the sinus headache!

Hee! Of course "Flipping" is the polite variation! :D

Of course, but I actually like the way it sounds with 'flipping' better. :D

*grins* Fair enough!
