Grand Avenue by Mike Thompson for August 31, 2015

I had an undiagnosed learning disability in math (it was the 80s, if they saw you were advanced in an area first you were “gifted” and that was that, if they noticed problems first you were evaluated for “learning disability”. They still have that issue though I’m told by a TAG teacher they are trying). Luckily Dad was getting his PhD in a math-based science and could explain things to me in different ways until one method made sense.
