I found it almost impossible to focus and study on nothing but theory with no connection to real world scenarios. Dropped out shortly after and attended a smaller technical school to get my associates degree. All of our instructors were part-time teachers who worked their regular industry jobs. Completely different experience, and a lot more hands on "real" work. Graduated with honours, one of the best choices I ever made. |

technically my work is correct. I am learning the info and doing at a VERY fast pace. the Prof and syllabus stress how they want us to actually learn and given my major I really need to nail this down. beyond me having to maintain a 3.0avg on all my classes from here out. it will have applications in the courses down the road which I'm certain will need me to know how to do it right.

Had planned to go to law school but saw the errors of my way. Ended up in computers and got a Masters, Information Systems while working in the field.

I ask because about 10 years ago I suddenly developed an allergy to NSAIDS (aspirin, Motrin, that type of thing) after having taken them regularly with no issues for 50 years. That type of allergy, once it is onset, potentially gets worse every time you are exposed. I went from a mild "what the heck is that" reaction the first time, to the 3rd time I had to go to the ED because my neck and face were swelling up so bad.

To me, that line was supposed to establish to the viewer that Han is a bullshit artist just saying impressive-sounding words to dazzle Obi-Wan and Luke into buying his services. Han is supposed to be this fast-talking, self-centered smuggler on the run who only looks out for himself (and maybe Chewie...). It makes sense that he would bullshit about his ship, it makes sense that he'd shoot Greedo before he has a chance to do anything to put Han in more danger. To make the kessel run quote literal (and making Greedo shoot first), takes away a part of what makes Han's arc special. Han coming back to help the Rebels is special because its exactly the thing the old Han would never do. Truth-telling, only-shooting-in-self-defense, always-been-a-good-guy Han is way less interesting, at least in my opinion. /nerdrant |

I have signed up for my first autocross this coming weekend. Super looking forward to it. Don't think I can go wrong for $55 (includes lunch even!), Just need to get a new helmet, find some people who are willing to let me ride with them, and find some people to ride with me. Only know 3 or 4 people who are attending, so maybe I'll be able to make some new friends.

Since its on your upper body... have you bought a new pillow or bed sheets recently? About 5 years ago I bought a new mattress pad/cover and shortly after started to get hives all over my back and legs. After a week of going to my doctor and trying to figure out what was going on I remembered the new mattress pad and the hives were gone within a day of removing it. If I hadn't figured that out, it was a 6 month waiting list to see a dermatologist just to get some skin testing done... I bought a new more expensive mattress pad later and didn't have an issue. There must have been some sort of chemical or additive in the cheaper fabric that couldn't be removed by washing. |
