Wellllll, hot dang!  It's April!  (No foolin'.)  So, it would seem we're in the final run-up--to the AP exam[s] the last "summer break" of your official childhood (for most of you, anyway), and the end of the school year. Time flies, am I right?  We've made mucho progress, and have bravely gone where only a few have dared to go before, BUT we're not there yet.  For the coming weeks, in the Lang portion of the program, we'll be focusing HARD on the writing niceties that will put us in good shape--for the test AND for anything else that comes along.  Hang on, Xtremers!  This party's just getting started!
