I think he's an articulate, highly-educated, simple goat herder who passes bad checks.


J/K Raoul...



Indeed it can...

A couple days earlier or later, one or two more pumps, and I'd have had a child at age 18. Thank God for answered prayers...

Lord, if you just let her not be pregnant, I promise I will never do that again... without a condom... (Don't act like it was just me...) The fear of 18 years of a child support payment will give an aethiest faith.

Yep, having a crumb-snatcher at 18 would have changed my life drastically... In fact, I'd probably be 100 pounds lighter, and still in the Army as an E-8, E-9, or some level of Warrant Officer by now, married (or divorced from) my HS girlfriend, with a 21 year old son or daughter.

No children involved!

Business managament (did this before I really knew what I wanted to do)

A.A.S. Aerospace Structures & Assembly

I don't need spell check. I give you something to complain about

Just Kidding...

I think the highest you can score on the ACT is a 36.

I'm 24, got a 22 on the ACT (36 is the max) 3.0 GPA through high school and college...never been an 'A' student, B's and C's are more my range. I've worked lots of construction and a small amount of retail/sales since I was 15.

BSBA Management 2006 - Central Missouri State University
MBA in progress 2009 - Mississippi State University

After I graduate next May, there's no telling what I'll be doing.

BigHersh -- I feel ya on Accounting, although I enjoyed it MUCH more than my 2 Finance classes (Allocation/Acquisition & Liquidity Analysis).
My Finance class was flat out insane...I hate getting tested on it with a passion. Accounting/Econ weren't too bad.

I believe I was looking at that text book (Allocation/Acquisiton & Liquidity Analysis) at my daughter's house last night. She is working on her MBA in night school At Drake University.
