While Christmas shopping online at Amazon, for your son's requested Microscope and Accessories...
AFTER already ordering the complete, 'Teach your Children French' kit.
And discussing with both grandmas, the reference books on Volcanoes, Fossils and History of Trains books, they bought him.
Not to mention, waiting for the arrival of the new Harry Potter DVD in the mail.
If you scroll down to Amazon's, "If you like that, you may like this" section....
and browse the long list of Harry Potter, bug catchers and space dork stuff...
all the while thinking,
Yes, he would love that!
Oh, we already have the Harry Potter trivia game.
He might like a Spy Kit.
Wait, how much would he love the microscope, telescope, magnifying glass combo pack with free bug guide and net!!?
It may suddenly hit you hard in the gut, that your son.... may not be a Texas Longhorn QB, one day.
What kind of team does ITT Tech have?
Wait a second.... there's always Illinois or Purdue.
Never mind.
That was close,
I nearly had to drift into reality.

Stop implying my grandson is a dork. He is a very intelligent, handsome, fossil loving jock. Wait......no, I'm sure he is a jock.
Wait a minute. You're not slamming Illinois are you? I mean, it's the holidays and that would make for an unfortunate timing of another blog war.
For what it's worth, the department of entomology at UIUC is celebrating its 100th birthday soon. Maybe you could stop by there while scouting the facilities at Memorial stadium!
No slam. I am grateful there is a football team cool enough for Coach, yet dorky enough to educate The Kid!
