Figured all you yahoos would still be here. I've been avoiding this place because I've been off my bike since October after hurting my knee. I had some false impression that if I wasn't riding I shouldn't be posting. That would make me a poseur by default. But hey, who cares! My knee is healing after arthroscopy and I'm ready to be a non-value-added contributor to the 41 again.

Its the day you're using April 1 as an excuse to let this run, and show you're too lazy to get L8 going, maybe you've been busy with DR85 business.
I pity the fool that messes with BillyD.
RollCNY, congrats to your son, I'd recommend EE to any young person wanting/looking to go into engineering right now. Electrical or Electronics Eng is(are) the coming field(s).

Yes, as far as jobs and job creation, nothing against you structural guys, (I'm a civil type, and my degree is in environmental) but right now, around here, the jobs are in EE. Construction is dead here, and this mornings government reports showed overall slowing in construction.
I am a DOD/USN construction specialist, our company is sucking wind for work right now. One solitary job is going on for us, and it ain't on one of the bases around our area (school work.) I'm ready to retire here soon, unless something changes. Not complaining though, having Parkinson's Disease makes you ready to pack in the work routine, and ride your bicycle as much as possible.

Too many April Fools played today.
At work, our computer system was super slow all morning which made it a challenge.
Then I ruined my favorite shirt due to a leaking ballpoint pen in shirt pocket.
As the day went on the office got warm/hot and the AC is not working. By the end of the day it was near 80F in my exam rooms.
I don't get the joke but trying to take it in stride. I told the office manager if the a/c is not fixed I will come to work in a wife beater.
