Well Grad School is over, I’m in Italy… I guess I oughta start reclaiming this place from Snakeye’s Craft Corner back to the good ol’ Frag. But now I can easily see how school can affect a site like this. There were times I hated to even get on [...]
Trav gave me the go ahead to do a catch-up post since he just left for a 2½ week TDY ala army style and has been short on time recently. He’s been crazy busy with grad school the past couple of days. He was able to pull off [...]
In college, everyone starts out taking common (or core) courses before they specialize into subjects that they’re actually interested in (ie, their major). For me, that happened to be Physics. I’ve always liked numbers-based subjects (the sciences more so than pure math) because they’re black and white, right and wrong. [...]
Yes, I’m finally back home, despite the painfully long “Murphy’s” journey to get back (yes, the setbacks that could go wrong did – at least we didn’t crash). I guess it’s back to reality where life is wrought with distractions and things to take up your time: family, pets, [...]

A week or two ago, I decided to apply to Colorado State online for their graduate program in Business. When I found out about the program (from my investigations), there were only three days until admissions close-out. That’s not too much time to get transcripts sent, write a page on [...]
I can’t believe I’m actually doing this. I thought, for sure, a Physics major would have burned me out for a long, long time. And it did for a while. Maybe the jackassery of SOS online is what got me motivated… not the fact that I actually learned something extremely valuable from it [...]
