lice, getcha lice

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-seven years and one million words

Toronto, 2017.06.14

The school just sent a note telling us 24 children at the school have head lice. There was a lot of discussion in the email about treating the things. Why do I feel itchy?

Three reasons to be thankful:

  1. It's only lice.
  2. We don't *know* that our kids will have them.
  3. We've made it this far without an incident. Nine years and change is not bad, should our run end here.

rand()m quote

You have to choose between trusting to the natural stability of gold and the natural stability of the honesty and intelligence of the members of the Government. And, with due respect for these gentlemen, I advise you, as long as the Capitalist system lasts, to vote for gold.

—George Bernard Shaw
