    I was showing this watch photo to my daughter who is a math freak and she suggested they make a mayan perpetual calendar for this watch since the mayan "long count" calendar is known to be more accurate than our gregorian calendar.

    Totally serious. His younger brother came home last week with a school award. He had the highest reading proficiency, something like 151 words or more a minute and he's only 6. I swear i doubt I can read that fast. There is as video on him somewhere if I find it I'll post it. True story, early on we had to stop being on certain sites or had to watch what we typed because the little one would always be behind your shoulder reading and understanding everything you wrote and read on the computer.

    I am blown away by my daughter. She is 15 and can play the piano along to any song by reading the sine waves of the sounds generated on her laptop.

    A foolproof method for sculpting an elephant: first, get a huge block of marble, then you chip away everything that doesn't look like an elephant.
