Green_98, I have to ask. What is up with that, ...GULP!! Dare I say it, Chevy (red headed step child) in your pic.

I always tell people that I hate ol' chevys, but I still have respect for them.

Very nice, Now that I have the new SCAB, I need to restore the ol '72. I have too many active projects right now. I am also working (when I have free time) on a '66 Ford Fairlane, but have easy access to a '47 Dodge pickup. I High School, I had all the time/no money. In college I had no money/no time. Now that I have graduated, I have some money/no time. Life sucks that way.

You guys are scaring me. Ill graduate in Fall '06, and maybe go to grad school after that...not sure. I know that im having the time of my life in college and im in no hurry to end it, even though it will be a relief to get out with a degree and be able to make some money and "grow up" a bit.

Go to grad school!! Then go to grad grad school... then grad grad grad...

Even better, get on a 10 to 15 year degree plan and then switch during your 14th year to start on another 15 year plan!

Don't come out here!!

Yes be afraid! Be very afraid!! It's not much fun out here!! Life consist of Family, Work, Bills, and chatting on forums about stuff that you use to get to do. But they have now became a treat to do "WHEN" or even "IF" you ever have the time to do them.

Bummer man.

I had a 500 level data analysis class within my Geography degree program and it was a ball-buster along these lines too. All we did was play with and analyze real-world geographical statistics... I don't envy where you're at in that class. I feel your pain.

You guys can have the math classes. The classes I hated the most were Physics. Possibly the hardest class I took, one of the most enjoyable also, was Gross Anatomy (6-8 hours a day in a lab/classroom, 5 days a week, 8 weeks during the summer).

I figured it out (since I can day dream while working). The things I used to dream about doing to my vehicle, knowing I didn't have the skill or the money, I can now splurge for. The things I still hate to do (plasti-guaging, piston rings, etc.), I can now pay others to do and be picky with my time.

Does cut into the bragging rights of ... yeah, I did that.

Thumbs up

Well, we will make this thread my first post.

Grew up in Chicago, moved to Belton, MO about 7 years ago (near KC) spent some good quality time there, but then moved back to Chicago due to family troubles.

Moving back to MO in about 2 months. MO is where I call home, though I grew up and spent most of my life in IL

I am moving to Gentry County (anyone tell me anything about it?)

I hear its the NW corner of hicksville MO

Hello and welcome.... You can learn everything you ever wanted to know here...oh yea and a lot about your truck too.

I don't know anything about Gentry County... I'll look it up later and see if maybe I've been there.
