When I was growing up, my mom was big on making us do things on our own. Laundry, school projects, cooking, even making us look up words in the dictionary instead of telling us what they meant. As a result, I went off to college knowing when...

Thanks for showing me that really cool trick that makes me swim like a Cuban fish.
