Cindy: Get It In Gear, Kid

I tip my cap to Sidekick Cindy as being one of the funniest women I know. I usually smile at her comments on Facebook, Twitter and here. But she made me bust out laughing with this one:  "It's that time of year when I write about the area's outstanding high school seniors. Kids who've overcome the death of a parent, unstable home lives, immigration to a new country, kids who've written software or organized parades etc. In short, the time of year when I look at my sons and say, "What the heck is the matter with you!?" My kids hate this time of year.

Question: Do you know a kid who has accomplished a lot?
