One feature from the Operagram that has not transitioned to the website is Diversions, Read More

COMMUNITY News: 

Jimi didn’t plan on raising a puppy, especially a puppy that can take care of people that need help. Sometimes things just happen. Now his summer is all booked up.

Isaac thinks training a puppy to be an assistance dog is a complete waste of time. He thinks building and training a robot would be a better way to spend the summer. Actually, he thinks Jimi should build and train a robot.
