Something Newish

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Since we're talking about memories, from preschool age, this seems to be a good spot for an anecdote about my preschool age son (4.5years). SonOfSonOfWitz, if you will.

this morning there was some discussion over our egg sandwiches about Chickens and Eggs.  I'll spare you the details, but my wife said something about fertalized eggs, and my boy threw up his hands and said "That stuff is just in Myths and Legends!!"

I threw up my arms in triumph as I tried not to spit out my egg sammy in laughter.
