Archimedes makes it a clean sweep

The senior awards at the annual Magnet Banquet featured the coveted mathematics bust. Jonathan has managed to get it every year, and this year the competition was tighter than ever. He didn’t know right up until he heard his name. We were pleased, first for his achievement (we are proud of you, Boy!) but also because it has turned into such a fun way to torment Christine, and abuse the bust. Each previous bust wears a special hat. There’s a Harry Potter Wizard’s pointy cap, a Dr. Seuss’ Cat in the Hat cap, and the new round of caps, Santa, Varsity, and a Giraffe hat.

And now, we have Archimedes, who transitions from the mathematician, to bishop, to Yellow Jacket. It looks like he picks up a medal or two as well.
