    Happy birthday to

    Thanks for the birthday wishes!!!! I'm planning on heading to the beach as soon as I can get out of this office today, and even though the weather is probably going to be the worst this year, i'll still be at the beach! My future retirement community.

    Someone pretending to be an engineer

    I'll chime in here....with a whole different perspective. I think it's REAL simple, unless you have passed the EXAM, you may do engineering work, but you're not an engineer. I do NOT have a college degree, so my take on it is much different than most. Many may not think I should even be...

    NFL Football 2011

    ^^ I agree!!! The Skins will be better than many think. They're going to have a MUCH better defense this year, and if the offense continues to run like it was showing pre-season....do not get surprised by them! On Tebow....all I can say is the "Experts" had concerns about Phillip Rivers too...

    time flies

    October 07, letter December 07.....Still remember an old friend that called me to congratulate me, and I didn't know yet. One of his co-workers was scouring the web site to see if he passed, and as soon as it popped up that he did, my friend had him look my name up. He thought he ruined the...

    deciding whether or not to take up civil egineering

    To over simplify an answer... YES you need to be good at MATH and Physics, YES it's hard, like any professional field would be. If you want to be successful, you'll need to work hard at school, and even harder when you get a job, and YES....believe it or not, if you're the best at what you do...

    HP 33s

    I have three of them...I bought 2 for the PE exam, and when I found out they improved the display, I bought a 3rd one and that's the one I passed the exam with, and still use it every day here at work! I love it....although I will admit, when it dies, I'll probably get something else, instead of...

    Who was the worst President since the Depression

    For me it was certainly Carter. Many times people get caught up in what a president really is capable of doing. The fact of the matter is a president is a figure head. He makes speaches, he kisses babies, and he pushes the red button on the bomb. I know I may be over simplifying here, but it's...

    NC folks...Watch Out

    I'm taking tomorrow off to head down and rescue my boat. I think it's still close enough that a cat3 or 4 storm will do damage.

    Earthquake Anyone

    I'm on the second floor of a 100 year old building, and we were rocking pretty good....I sat very still trying to determine what my excape route would be. Still pretty cool though, it was my first one. Now on to the Hurricane!

    How did that happen?

    OR....maybe there is only ONE explaination???? I've seen enough stories from "Brilliant" scientists to know that every single time they come up with a reason scientifically where something happened, it's always in line with something that's stated in the bible. I just wonder why they feel the...

    China - Georgetown brawl

    I might not go to defcon 2....but it's a warning shot. The reaction of the crowd was what was so disturbing to me.

    China - Georgetown brawl

    IF you all get a chance, go to youtube and watch the footage on that fight. I was originally thinking...well, it's Georgetown. OK, I was WRONG...and will admit it. This tells you a little bit about what the Chinese think of the US, and honestly it made my blood boil. To get a little insight to...

    Electronic file transfer - What kind of disclaimer?

    Do any of you work where you put a disclamer on any electronic files that you send out? Specifically CAD files....and I'm not necessarily referring to the "Sheets" that were plotted and sealed. I'm mainly referring to the base files that you send out. We are sending design files to a surveyor...

    20 year HS Reunion this weekend

    We just had our 30th...I didn't go. But we had a facebook "Group" started so I did get to see how pretty much everyone got fat and bald. Our cheerleaders at one point attempted to do a pyramid, but I can promise you there was NO WAY it was going past the second row. On top of that, we actually...
