Student achievement

Look what students in Europe and Asia are doing:

The first satellite to be designed and built entirely by European students on the internet was successfully launched from a site in northern Russia, paving the way for what its backers hope will be more pioneering student projects in space.

The micro-satellite, named Sseti Express, blasted off on the back of a Russian Cosmos-3M rocket from a cosmodrome in Plessetsk with satellites from China, Germany, Iran, Norway, Japan and Britain sharing the ride.

Cool, hunh? Gee whiz. Kids nowadays — whew!

My kids are no slouches, either. In fact, Squirt is a founding member of a brand-new club at his high school! Here’s a flyer:

When the time comes,
are you going to be a SURVIVER? [sic]
Or a screaming WUSSIE?

Be prepared! Join the
ZOMBIE SURVIVER CLUB!

We’re very proud.
