Oh, joy! Here are Tiger's Eye's math assignments:
8/20 1/2 day of school - no homework
8/21 page 7 # 4,8,10,16,22,26,30,35,40,45
8/22 page 14 # 2,6,7,16-32 evens

8/24 page 22 # 11,14,18,20,26,30,34,40,46
Tiger's Eye said you e-mailed me, but I never got it. I think it's my end of things, but if you would reply, it would be great.
Are ya'll having a good time? Love you!

Silly sister,
Things are going well. Our CMC's cute daughter is trying to talk to him, but he's being non-responsive. She even offered to help him with his math homework. The boy needs to learn some conversational skills. He's killing me here. I just gave him the printout. He's groaning. I'm getting tasked now, so I'd better perform the Hinge avoidance maneuver. See ya.

I don't know why, but Tiger's Eye manages to garner female attention, and I've only ever seen him with the female of our species like you are seeing him! Smack him over the head. He came over on the boat with a girl name Chiquita. Apparently, she's the daughter of someone who keeps your ejection seats in good working order...

I bet you give her an IM window and put them in separate rooms, they will talk for hours...

I spent most of the night pondering what a hinge avoidance maneuver is. Google wasn't much help, so I e-mailed him. Sit tight, gentle readers, now that I have piqued your curiosity and you want to know as much about hinge avoidance manevers as I do! **edit: find answer here!**
