Oh, those generational moments!


I was working in a 5th grade class yesterday with a small group of students. The opening comment to me was this:

My response was "What's 'UP'"? In my old man mind, I was just a big fifth grader.
I remembered that quote from Gertrude Stein, Inside we are always the same age
Oh, are there more s'elves lurking about the Pixar has yet to discover?:
