How the heck did she get a flail?

In response to bullying, a high school girl in Gary, Indiana, sneaked a flail into school and attacked her tormentor with it.

Not a boffer flail. A real one, with sharp spikes. Talk about bizarre classroom incidents. I don't even know how you disarm someone swinging a flail, I mean, without hurting them seriously.

You're sure we can't start toilet training till 14 months?

Mac didn't like having a dirty diaper on today. So he took it off, carefully folded it into a package, and left it in the playpen. Of course, then he had no diaper. But, perhaps, he realized that he didn't want to make more of a mess in the playpen, where he was. So he pulled himself up to the edge, stood facing the mesh wall of the playpen, and peed out through the mesh. Luckily, he didn't quite hit the wireless router.

Sigh. It's just been one of Those Days.
