Well yeah it was just The Giver and A Separate Peace

Like, look at the Newbery winners up until the 70s and all the "YA" level books are historical fiction. Oh look, another book about a pioneer boy. Yay.

I think it's good as long as you don't read it thinking you're supposed to identify with or even like the narrator.

The place where I went to school had 10+ horse farms in the area/there was students REALLY into horses.
So yes. Precautionary tale of not touching horses or else you'll rip out your eyes were deemed necessary by the school system.

welp lads i've become everything i hate

kids from the local high school football team were outside my coffee shop asking for donations

i say no thanks

kid being a smartass says 'yeah, no cash right?' and i tell him that i work in traumatic brain injury research and there's no way i would support football

kid looks at me like i'm from mars

i say 'google CTE in the NFL' and go inside to get my breakfast

come outside and the kid is sitting down buried in his phone looking distressed

it's me, i'm the latte sipping liberal that ruins everything

That's frikken awesome. I brainwashed my son against foobble and he turned out to be the strongest kid in the weight room. They used to beg him to suit up.

Since it's so nice out (college town outside of Chicago, topped at maybe 75F today) I went out in the garage and buttoned the interior in my RX-4 back up from when I was pulling the radio and doing some rewiring. I decided that the $400-odd that would go to getting the original radio rebuilt is instead better suited to going towards a street port when I get the rotary rebuilt.

:getin:

Still have to sort out registration issues from California and get it registered in IL, but this'll be the winter I get it back to road-ready status. I've still got a laundry list of poo poo I need to replace before that happens, though.

Definitely want a new exhaust without the thermal reactor so I can spit flames on deceleration, but that's probably a project for next year with all the money issues that California back reg is going to give me.

Those RX4s always reminded me of a baby challenger. And oddly they've only ever been that nice blue from the factory or rattlecan black.

Yeah, I've always loved how '70s Japanese imports looked like mini muscle cars. I feel like I hit the lottery finding mine, because it's forest green with a matching sage/forest interior.

I miss when interiors were more than just gray, black, or beige.
