Arr, Matey. (That's how I'd say hi if I were a pirate.)

I just started an afterschool swimming program. Every other day, we do the trudgen for at least a half an hour. I don't mind it much, except I wish we'd do it in a pool, not a swamp. Though I guess the vicious flesh-eating bacteria are good motivation to swim fast! I've already lost 4 candygrams! Not sure how much that is in whatever weight unit you guys use.

Guess what -- me and Freddy solved the Mystery of Dead Man's Mansion! It turns out Old Man Schneider was dressing up as a werewolf to try to trick Mrs. Hendricks out of her valuable old paintings. He said he'd have gotten away with it, too, if it hadn't been for our meddling.

Another!
