Your Day

^ Sorry to hear, but at least you and your huge dude friend

kept your word, which is never a waste of time. Thanks for sharing your CAD creations in this thread – it was fascinating to see your mock-up of the USS Freedom. So detailed. I’m not familiar with CAD at all, so reading your description of your work and seeing it was a learning experience for me. And the best thing is that you enjoy what you do, understand its importance and actually like going to work every day.

As for me, I spent two hours tonight figuring out a “math” problem related to my niece’s Girl Scout troop cookie sales. Can’t believe it took two hours to figure it out, but problem solved at last. Then at the end of our brainstorming session my niece hit me up to buy more cookies. We already have 15 boxes here that we haven’t touched and I bought ten more. These Girl Scouts are tough!

Your Niece sounds like she might have a future in marketing/sales. Thats a hefty load of cookies.

She's got a good pitch: lightens her tone of voice, throws in a few I love yous, more boxes sold!

I told her to keep the ten boxes for herself, then my sister gets on the phone and says they have too many already stacked up in their garage and I must take them.

However, my piano performance was good enough that I think I've got a shot at advancing.

I just found out that I made the top ten, and that the grand finale will be happening next Saturday. I've learned it in a lower key and shaken the cold, so I'm ready. Fingers crossed.

Congrats Pet! I enjoy MB members succeeding.
