Go to school nine months sooner and graduate sooner. Vote sooner. Own a gun sooner. Feel free to add to this. I will take my nine months of social security checks now, please.

If I had some fertilized eggs stashed away in the freezer, could I apply for $500 for each of them as a primary caregiver? Are there any thawing requirements involved?
