The kids have taken to singing at the top of their lungs at all times. It would appear that they’re training for American Idol. Cameron sings “Go” from one of the Acceleracers movies:

WARNING: this is graphic and gross.
I got up late this morning. I had an appointment with a client, waaaaaay north of me. I called her to confirm before I left, to be told that she was out of the office. Fine. I called my office to find out that our technician had an […]
