I don't think I had a teaching assistant 30 years ago in engineering school that was not an international graduate student. We are dumbing down America right now.

I say out loud, I can't believe I made this! It is like love on a plate!

My neighbors from my childhood were also aunts and uncles. I still call all those people those titles, they are in their 70s and 80s and I am in my 50s.
