I admit they're true athletes, and of course your dd performs in sweats.

I'm not talking about male cheerleaders here.

One of our male cheerleaders (who we called PowerBoys; long story) went to camp with us one summer. ABout the second day in, we're sittingunder a tree on a break, exhausted, and he turns to us and says "Don't tell any of the guys ... but this is ten times harder than football camp ever was."

He went on to cheer for OU and then be a professional cheerleader for one of the national companies, running camps (NCA I think).

You know, I couldn't figure out why "portage" sounded so familiar to me. That's it! We went to portage glacier when we were there on spring break.

Our driver will take the kid on the rest of the route if the parent (or pick up person) is not there. If they are still not there when they return, they will take them back to the school.

Yes, that is what we did as kids, when it was "innocent" roaming. Once you get to a certain age, you are basically looking for trouble.

Children were prohibited from hearing Beethovan because it was thought to evoke improper thoughts.

I think the latest age we ever got spanked was about 10.
