An old friend of mine whom I have known for over 32 years has a son who is studying for his G.E.D. They live in the other side of town so I don't get to see them too often, but I asked the son whether or not he wanted to check out EvC Forum...and so I brainstormed and came up with this topic. If he joins in this conversation, I will know that he is interested in some tutoring for free from a bunch of old men like me. Stay tuned...

Elijah come study
Elijah?

Social Studies GED
To begin with, I perused the internet to find some stuff that might help shed a perspective on this task at hand.
​
Just to let the peanut gallery know, Eli attends classes in the daytime to prepare for this stuff, so what we discuss here is simply icing on the cake.
