See you tomorrow Pat. Now wecan really have fun. The head guy is gone. Time to let loose an let the you know what fly.

 

Hey Jake - I tried out Alltel's wireless card for my laptop. It sucked! It was barely tolerable in Omaha, then when I moved up here to the Sioux City area, it was slower than dial-up. It was constantly dropping the connection too. And, the monthly plan was about $60. I returned that thing real quick before my 30 day trial period was up. That type of service will probably improve, things like that always get better.

A lot of places have wi-fi now, Starbucks, etc. I'm sure they are working on a way to charge you for it too!

 

Ok Jake so what are you doing at your brothers. Having a good time I hope. I keep forgetin your close to Grand I sland. Just had a brain fart. Talk about Grand Island that town has sure grown.

 

I knew that it was pretty expensive.....they also have a deal where you can plug your cell phone in and get internet through it......

-Jake

 

Well guys, I'm off for now too... have fun!

 

I'm just bummin' around. I was at my gf's in St. Libory but she has a basketball game in Wood River tonight and she had to leave to catch the bus at 4:30.....right now I'm just passin' time cause her game is at 7:45....

-Jake

 

See you later Rob. Now dont forget us come back tomorrow. Hot date with the girl friend. Sounds great. Jake

 

Hey now guys I will be gone to for awhile. Keep this thread going guy. Talk about anything you like. Remeber its the BS thread so anything goes. Well within reason off course.

 

Well I see how it is.....

-Jake

 

So.....this is proabably the fastest growing thread yet......must've put the right fertlizer on........

-Jake

 

BTW Jake how is school going. Any future plans Just curious.

 

School is pretty good. NE Machinery has a sponsorship program with CCC. They pay books, tuition, and give you $2500 for tools. You get decent grades (2.0.....NOT THAT HARD), jump through a few other hoops, and work for them for 2 years. I have a summer internship at Columbus, and that's where I'll be after I get out Spring of 09. Those are my plans. I'm really hoping I can get moved to Doniphan as it's a bit closer to home but we'll see. Maybe I'll find that I like Columbus. I'll be closer to alot of you guys, and farther away from the girlfriend......I guess that means I'll have more time......(don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining that she occupies most of my free time!!!!)

-Jake

 

So are you tied up with Caterpillar then Jake?

 

I have a couple of friends who went to CCC in Hastings for Neb. Machinery and got awsome jobs. Good pay, and they send you on trips to get schooled on the new equiptment. One of my friends was a mechanic, then he scored a head salesman job out in Scottsbluff, Neb. Sometimes he and his wife get sent on trips for selling a bunch of stuff as an inscentive. Good line of work and program I would have to say.
