For all that I have written about my granddaughter, Summer, including pictures of her in the dumpster and the “I think they’re Chinese” people, I feel I must, in all fairness, mention that she won the Outstanding Science Student of the year. Come to think of it, maybe she is planning on learning ways to blow me up real good. She is also extremely good at math and is in the advanced class, but she didn’t win that award . . . Maybe it has something to do with the fact that she didn’t get the “Why was six afraid of seven? Seven Eight Nine” joke until many years later when she saw it in subtitles. Sometimes – maybe a lot of times – when she is picking on me for being old and wrinkly and other things, I look over my glasses and say, “Seven, eight, nine” and she exclaims, “I was little; I didn’t think about homophones!”

Well I’d keep the TNT locked up tight with that girl in the house! lol
Tell her good job! I’ll be expecting good things in the future.
We think that, based on this article, perhaps it would be good if Summer did not see the movie “Kick Ass”

Money graf: “New action flick “Kick-Ass” contains all the key ingredients for an R-rated comic-inspired action/comedy, from copious violence to jaw-dropping profanities. But shockingly, most of the mayhem is generated by a pretty blonde pre-teen. Chloe Moretz, now 13, plays an assassin aptly named Hit Girl, who is trained to seek revenge and kill by her father, Big Daddy (Nicolas Cage). Moretz was just 11 years old at the time of filming.
Sparing no witnesses, Hit Girl (real name Mindy) shoots people with a handgun (while donning pigtails and a school uniform), strangles and sends samurai swords spearing into the stomachs of her older opponents. Hit Girl slaughters while outfitted in a full super-hero costume complete with Clara Bow wig. “
