I came into the Oldest Lad's Life at the beginning of his Sophomore Year in Public High School. His grades from his Freshman Year were not stellar. I set to work immediately with an intense tutoring program. I taught him to drive. I cajoled and growled at him through the ACT and SAT. I nursed him through AP Physics, urging him on to take the AP Exam and earn College Credit for Physics.
Now, Oldest Lad is on the cover of a National Magazine.
Yes. The Back Cover of University of Cincinnati Alumni Magazine features Oldest Lad, Front AND Center!
I am soooooo proud. Mom and Dad are beaming. They are certain that all that time they forced Oldest Lad to sit at the desk and do his homework, the endless math fact flashcards; it was all worth it.
Here is the link:
O ldest Lad picture
Then at the center top, where the arrows are, select "Back Page."
It helps if "Zoom" is then selected, for Full Effect.
Oldest Lad is the "C." Can't miss him. The red person with the black "C," red bandana, and sunglasses -- that's Oldest Lad.

Dang IT we cann't pull up the picture! We wanted to be proud of Oldest Lad TOO. Well we'll just take your word for it and !Be Proud! anyway.
Kirby & Tribe Kirbo and others, if you copy the link Mulligan has supplied you need to remove the space between the "2" and the "3" in the address. Dogster seems to add spaces occasionally in the links that pups supply...don't know why. If you remove the space, you can see the picture. Then you'll understand why the Mulligan Compound is so proud!
