News this week says that kids who were nursed for at least 9 months score consistently several points higher on IQ tests. Perhaps that means they're smarter, not just better able to take tests. ;-)

I sometimes miss those days of closeness to my kids, but then I think back to that feeling like I was wearing a couple of canteloups around and am glad to be back to a more comfortable size. Pamela Anderson is welcome to her inflated front, I, like a lot of women, prefer a slimmer profile. (And as Ben Franklin sagely noted, "All cats are gray in the dark"--I assume that this has many applications!)
