Catching Up With Thevictorian Young 'uns

Both Thevictorian boys are preparing themselves for finals week.

Genius sent me a text a few minutes ago.

"Just submitted my last assignment and taking the evening off before suffering starts tomorrow."

"I typed STUDYING but got autocorrected to SUFFERING. Seemed apt."

Heh, heh. That demon Autocorrect will get you every time.

Also, Genius's solar car fundraiser http://bit.ly/2nxOVeh is now at $12,775. Their original goal was $3000, and they were able to set a new goal several times. So far, they have received 60 donations. There are 3 or 4 days left.

The Pony has been incommunicado much of the week, but DID send me a picture:



I hope that's not an omen!

For finals, OR for Casinopalooza 2, which starts the weekend after.

    1. Oh, come on. Like that's a surprise. You guys would be lost without someone (or something) to tell you what to do.

    1. I thought you did that on PURPOSE! To make a point about Autocorrect.

  3. Val--Is Casinopalooza 2 taking place over Mother's Day weekend?

    If so, I'm sure you'll get some extra luck sprinkled down upon you, since you're a mom.

    1. I'm sorry, but you reminded me of the little boy in the ghetto saying his first half word, "Mother...!!"

    2. Sioux--Casinopalooza 2 will INDEED be over Mother's Day weekend. It was not planned for that purpose. The light of the holiday placement dawned on us after the fact.

      It was planned to fit the busy schedule of Genius and my sister the ex-mayor's wife. We must leave and return at different times, but will have two days together.

      Gosh. Do you think that will be enough time to squeeze a blog post out of Casinopalooza 2?

    1. Yes, but he's not one to toot his own horn. So we have to toot it for him.
