I thought it would be nice to have a place to share big events with each other (ie graduations, births, etc). Plus, I wanted to brag just a little, so let me get started LOL ....

Tomorrow Wednesday, December 13th, 2006, at 10am, I take the last final of my first long semester at The University of Texas Health Science Center - San Antonio, TX in their graduate Occupational Therapy program. I am supposed to be studying for said final now, but end-o-semester burn out has set in.

I have been out of college (university for all of you over-seas) for 10 years and I am pumped to have this first long semester behind me. It was tough, but not as tough as the gross anatomy (human dissection) over the summer.

Congratulations and good luck on the finals. While it's alot of stress now, I'm sure it will all pay off once you've graduated and have that sweet job wink.gif

I know exactly what you mean. I was out of school for over ten years when I decided to go back and get a degree. That first semester starts out going full steam but by the end you are just ready for it to be over. Well good luck with the final. biggrin.gif

Myself and my Team at the Marshall Space Flight Center designed a new DC Connector for a Wiring Harness that would simply "snap into place" that was used yesterday on the Electrical Upgrade to the ISS by the Shuttle Crew. smile.gif

Yeah, but it's like several other threads Roger, it will eventually get back on course. Unless of course Mark hijacks it again in the future tongue.gif

Crazy bloody Trektoyers! biggrin.gif

Good luck to you Slayer....
Good for you Cookieman...
Don't really know what you said Propmaster, but it sounded cool! smile.gif

Later this afternoon I start training a group of female pro wrestlers.
I've been training myself for about 2 years, but my body is starting to give up....all my joints are screwed, so I thought it would be best if I helped train new people for a while.

Being that I have a 'thing' for the ladies (though I am gay), the owner of the federation said I could train the women...which is awesome. Not that I am too comfortable seeing women get hurt...but it has to be done, & I prefer to do things my way to lessen the chance of injuries.

And you call yourself a Trekker/Trekkie Artistix tongue.gif Something that Roger and his crew worked on was used in the current space Shuttle mission. Congratulations on that Roger, must have made you and the gang really proud hearing that.

I can't either.

I didn't make poo poo pants either!! IS that close?

Roger and I are sort of like Pinky and the Brain. I would be Pinky of course.


OK how about this, I passed my computer class with a 97.84% and my English class with a 96.78% I signed up for my next class today was well.

I find the older I get the more I worry about a fart turning into something else entirely Mark. Nice job on the classes and glad to hear they didn't discourage you from joining up for another semester wink.gif Good luck to you and enjoy the holidays during your break smile.gif

LMAO... Me and my buddy were talking about that a couple of days ago. We call it a "shart" (you can figure it out). biggrin.gif

Back on topic. Me and my wife are going to be closing on our new house in the beginning of January. It is not our first house together but it is the first house that we have had built just for us. We are both very excited about that.

Congratulations JMW326, that's awesome news. Trust me, I have quite a few things to finish up around the house, I'm just really laaazzzy biggrin.gif Hopefully I can get to some of the outside stuff this spring, as my house needs a good scrub down and my fence is in need of replacing. But right now we're working on the upstairs and trying to get motivated and get back to it laugh.gif Congratulations again, having your own place is great, even if it's alot of work wink.gif
