  • My daughter made the Dean's List for her first semester (she's a freshman at University of Cincinnati) with a 3.94!

        Congrats! Not to brag, but I was on Craigslist and the no-fly list my first semester.
        Where are we going; and what's up with this hand basket?

        • LOL! Thanks gang, I'm super proud of her. I wasn't so sure how college would play out, considering she lost all interest and motivation in her education about half way through her junior year of high school, so it really could've gone either way. But so far so good! She's only gone to one frat party, but left before 11pm because she thought it was "boring" - which totally works for me!

            I have no idea what this means……… but several highly intelligent people have liked the post so it must be positive news!!

            Well done Kays daughter, great stuff. 👌

            I once made Miss DeSantos’ referral for French class list. …… was a list of names she wanted to “get the fuck out of my French dept and never return!”

            • Marko69, the dean's list is mostly meaningless, but it is a "recognition of outstanding academic achievement" at american universities. It basically means she crushed it, but other than that, she might get to go to a dessert reception with the big kahuna and a bunch of other nerds and that's about it.

              • Madison Keys won her first major at the age of 29, winning the Australian Open early this morning. She had to earn it, beating the two top players in the world back to back in tough 3-set matches.

                She grew up the daughter of a tennis coach. She was supposed to be the next big player, but never quite got to the top of the game. She was known as a good person, who conducted herself well. Carved out a long solid career and it seemed like that would be it.

                She got married to another pro tennis player and a couple years ago they decided to have him coach her and it has worked out.

                It's really a heart-warming story of someone finally getting something they earn and deserve after years of good work.
