MP says dyslexia is a "cruel fiction" invented to cover up bad teaching. Yeah? How about you get a ladder and jump up my ass, sir.

Can I get some recommendations for good tai chi or yoga DVDs/videos? I'll trade suggestions for epic cat cuteness.




Samwise, our gray tabby who came to the door and claimed us.


Gracie the new addition, being cute. Mauling imminent in 3, 2, 1...


Weejo, my parents' cat, with her ill gotten straw still in her mouth. "O HAI, why you takes mah picture?"


Gratuitous cat snuggling! They clean each other, too.

I was actually really lucky because they DID figure out I was dyslexic when I was about eight. I had a few years of after school tutoring to work with me on reading and after that I was a fantastic reader. I can read quickly and with great comprehension. Spelling was impossible for me for a long time. I'd go home and cry because I'd spend an hour every night working on ten words and I'd still get a 70% TOPS on my spelling test on Friday. My major issues come with math, sequences, and describing steps to solve problems. I just sort of figured out solutions to problems instead of remembering formulas and things.
