I don't want to sound like a daddy or anything, but learn all you can so you will have it easier when you grow up and have to work for a living.

listen to WOM. Trust WOM.

Thank you werewolf

np...hey, it's not WiseOldMan for nothin' ya know

I keep telling my kids the same thing, hoping that it will sink in. School is the absolute best place to learn how to learn, research, figure out how to solve problems, all that stuff. They just don't seem to catch on sometimes, sometimes they do.

Its just a beat up old man that had to get by the hard way instead of going to college.

that must have been tough...well duh "beat up old man"...Ya made it though, right? That totally counts

Lota hard miles. Should have stayed in school.

if it's none of my business...I'll understand, but...

why didn't you?

The 60's.Wine,women and free love. Money cars and the good life. So I thought.

Forgot the pot.

Oh yeah, California.... I can't believe the wife got on my puter.

yeah, I almost smoked my way out of college. My best friend finally kicked my ass and made me understand "The Way Things Are In This World"

that was college the first time Managed to make it out with a BSEE, but *just barely* Second time, much later in life, got a BFA in Commercial Photography and a BS in CIS. Realized that professional photographers don't get to have a family life and stuck with the computer stuff...sort of. First job was as a financial analyst for Dun & Bradstreet, lasted 18 years and our entire department, world-wide, was cleanly erased from the ledgers. A fine how-do-you-do indeed.

Well all my friends were the same as I was. I changed when I was drafted.

When I got out of the army (89 days) I descided to go back in and do my 20. That way I'd have something to fall back on.

hmmm the service will do that to you, I suppose
