Thank you thank you.  I don’t look a day over 92... Also thanks to those who posted birthday wishes on Facebook.

the surveying jurisprudence exam!  Yay!

See, I still had to start it myself!  But yeah,I haven't been around much, I know.

So, as of this past Friday at approximately 2:30 PM, I sold my house in Virginia!!!  I can not begin to express how relieved I am... but also how sad I am that it is now not part of my life.  My wife and I bought it in 2004 when she was pregnant with our oldest.  We poured our souls into that...

It happens to all of us.  First it's a whisker on your chin that you try to convince yourself is just blonde, not gray or silver.  Then, it's the increased waist size, dammit, these jeans fit fifteen years ago, why can't I still fit in a size 34 waist, I haven't put on that much weight, have I? ...

I tried four times to pass the CT state surveying exam.  I didn't pass any of those tries.  I'm not going to get all mad about it, even though I think it is bullshit that they don't tell you what you got wrong or provide any study resources prior to the exam.  So, I'm just moving on.  I'm going...

**** it.  I'll start my own spam thread, because apparently, CT is regressing in their abilities while NCEES is moving into the modern era.

The following is an email I received this morning from a sales rep.  Now, I am not a grammar nazi, but I prefer my professional email correspondence to be generally coherent, not something that looks like a 6th grader texted it.

Test

Still waiting.  I'll almost certainly be in Iraq by the time the results are available.

So, we've reached a new era in the sapper home.  After basically 11 years (there was a couple years break between number 1 and number 2) we are done with cribs and changing tables. Little Sap #3 graduated to his big boy bed today.  Last night, I put him to bed, half an hour later I hear crying...

Rules: This Christmas.  Whenever somebody says "Happy Holidays", drink and post in here. Whenever somebody says "See you next year" referencing any moment immediately after January 1st, drink and post in here. Whenever a kid defiantly says "No!" about anything drink and post in here...

Come on, come on, come on, release those results already!

Why give up PCS only to fail us now?

Seriously, NCEES, good job! Earliest results release in the past nine years... possibly ever. Kudos to the hard working folks at NCEES for constantly improving the turn around time and process by which they administer, grade, and notify candidates of results on these exams.

I recently read this article at the American Surveyor website and felt that I couldn't let it go without comment. Even if nobody of real consequence reads my reply, I still feel compelled to respond. So, I figured I'd put it here, because... why not. First, I mean no disrespect to Dr. Elgin...

The official April 2015 exam results waiting game. Person who gets post number 10,000 will get a high five. Person with most number of top of pages will get a low five. At least three characters per post. No double posting. Let the mayhem begin.

Saw this in another board. Absolutely had to steal it and post it here.

Who's gonna join me?
