      Ok so you’re west of me and not east of me, but we agree on the need for basic life skills in the curriculum here. How not to bounce a check and fluid dynamics.

        Technically I am both west and east of you due to the shape of the Earth but now I just feel like being obnoxious and yes, we agree.
