piratelemur, over on
laddical's blog, mentioned that her niece is currently a high school freshman. Leems, you need to remember that some of us in the target audience can remember when your niece was born, and since we are now old, we have fragile constitutions, you need to give us warning, like this:
Attention Old People: The next sentence will make you feel Old!
My youngest sister graduates college next weekend. My parents have now successfully gotten four children through college, and are to be congratulated. Oh, and my sister too.
There, see how much better that works, with proper warning?
