Gotta love school!!!

I just started school up the beginning of the year and already have a 3 page essay to do after I interview 2 people and get their point of view on indoor vs. outdoor jobs... I'm loving my Diesel Technology class though, already done 3 tune ups, 2 timings, replaced a water pump, fixed injectors, the works... Math is going smoothly for the time being, lets just see if I don't have to strangle my annoying teacher... Might have to write a 15 to 20 page paper for my midterm on just my diesel class and who knows about my writing class... Who's going to see my writing as a Diesel Tech?? The driver's? Customer's? My boss?? Oh well, I know it's all worth the torture of taking the class to get my degree!!

If anyone has a spare Idle Stop (Shut-Off) Solenoid laying around let me know, I could use one for my 1bbl Carter.

Good luck and have fun with it. I was 40 before I went to collage, it was a lot of fun. I treated to school like a job and worked hard just like I do now at my work.

Thats really the only way to do it if you want to succeed and graduate on time so you can go use what you learned and have accomplished.

Good luck in school. It all seem's pointless till you are standing up tossing your hat. Then when the paychecks are rollin in it all of a sudden wasnt that bad.
