First, I have noticed that since I can&#8217;t talk above a whisper, everyone gets really close to talk to me and they whisper right back.  They are way more attentive [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[What kid doesn&#8217;t love April Fools Day?
I remember when I was in kindergarten it was the first time I had ever heard of April Fools Day. I went up to my teacher at school and very excitedly told her that there was a spider on her shoulder.  And when she looked I shouted, &#8220;April Fools!&#8221;
That was [...]]]></description>
