“I hope it drives all the ‘tolerant’ bastards absolutely nuts”
But how would you know?
So I will take it that no more Mao Tse Tung ornaments will be on the WH Christmas (not ‘holiday’) tree? MAGA!!
Framed the invitation and tickets to the inaugural activities. Am hoping to do the same to Christmas card.
Great hand-me-downs!
I'm sure he's into anything "computer".
Yes they will be.
Yet Barron's is totally legible.
“Most boys, for whatever reason, have horrendous handwriting.”
Seems to be true about the guys in my family! Maybe because it just wasn’t as important as other stuff.
“maybe because cursive is on the way out?”
I’ve had the impression it was the opposite. My granddaughter went straight to cursive in kindergarten.
Maybe it depends on the curriculum used.
The staff would have had to clean up the scrawl as it drifted down and disappeared off the bottom of the card.
Then there'd be the matter of the drops of liquor on the paper, and they'd just give up and hire a calligrapher.
And the Arch Bishop of Canterbury can’t figure out why Christians would support this man.....
Most public schools around here do not teach cursive anymore. I remember back in 2009, when my oldest was taking the Catholic High Schools Entrance Exams, that the essay portion was to be written in cursive, in PEN.
When I went to pick him up from the test, many public school kids were in tears because they had not be taught cursive, and some were upset because they had never been required to use a pen instead of a pencil. They were saying, “I didn’t even bring a pen!” and “My essay looks awful — I couldn’t erase anything.”
In our local Catholic schools, cursive is formally started in third grade, but kids are encouraged to try before that if they are ready.
But who knows what they are teaching the little tykes nowadays — even in the kinds of private schools Barron has attended?

. . . and no Kwanzaa, yippee.
11 year old Barron has better handwriting than some of my college aged grandchildren!
I am loving this so much. It brings tears to my eyes. God bless our First Family!
Hahahahahahaha!
