That would be great. At the moment i'm basking in my own glory, I just bought 2 x 2GB DDR2 667Mhz Ram sticks and installed them myself. Boy the pc is much faster now.

Just got home...after working on diff eq hw, a buddy and i worked on our machine elements project; redesigning a three-wheeled, rear-steering car for a neighboring elementary school...we took it outside and drove it down a hill, almost crashed into a light pole and i broke the steering bar right off! it was pretty fun, now we have some work to do :)

m911gt, you study way too much! Ok, so you had some fun riding your thingamajig but dude, you're always studying.

I graduated from college with a 2.6 GPA in Engineering. I tell people I missed honors by one point. One lousy point from a 3.6 GPA.

The only time my grades hurt me was when I started Grad School, they made me take the GRE.

Noogie, it wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have differential equations...particularly with the prof I have. He doesn't let us use formulas or shortcuts, but rather we are required to derive equations to get to the solutions, and he enjoys assigning tons of homework. He's a newer teacher and comparing it to the workload of other prof's diff eq classes, the most unforgiving. I have to work really hard to try to keep up in that class, if it wasn't for that, school wouldn't be as time consuming.

Lisa, while you're at it, our men's room needs more of those paper seat covers. Can you order a carton of 10 packages for me?

yeah, you laugh....

I've been ordering custodial supplies for about 6 months. I'm not sure why I'm shocked by the hand dryers.
