Kiddo got an interactive globe for Christmas and announced that she is "tapping the stuff she knows." Her first tap was for the Democratic Republic of the Congo and I want to know which Carmen Sandiego games she's playing in school

Dudley is now 12. Everybody say happy birthday Dudley!
I pulled out the camera and he laid down and refused to move, so this is the best that I have. I suppose I could bribe him with cheese for a picture
