Not that you guys care... but i thought i would share (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
I was at the ASCE PSWRC competition in san diego from wednesday to sunday. (American Society of Civil Engineers - Pacific South West Regional Conference) basically a huge competition between colleges in various civil engineering events. steel bridge design, concrete canoes, concrete frisbees and bowling ball competition, seismic design, land surveying and a few others. I was on the surveying party and we kicked some ass, ended up with a second place, as we were the second team to finish with dead nutz accuracy.... (and we did it with non digital equipment) Over all... our school (Cal Poly Pomona) took first place over UCLA, SLO, USC, UNLV, ASU and 15 other schools in the area. Was way fun to watch some people sink in their canoes, and some broke in half. ill post some pics if you guys are interested. now, to get caught up on school, so i can finish the top end rebuild on my car next weekend. LOL |

QUOTE(KaptKaos @ Apr 15 2007, 09:10 PM)  Exceptionally well put, Kap'n! Me, myself & I were stripping fuel injection parts - in the middle of a classic nor'easter! 6 1/2 inches of rain & counting! Bother me - no, because I'm in my dry garage with my.......what? "Whatta ya mean we need to paint? "I'm doing important 914 work here" "Paint what? Oh yeah....be right in". Even Mother Nature won't step in to help me! Tried to use the "blown knee" thing - stupid! Can't win! Tried to use the sloppy painter thing too. Saw right through it. "You painted that thing when it was only 7 years old - you've never painted the inside of this house & it's 12 years old" I said "It's too humid to paint" She, wise in her years said, "that doesn't apply to latex". I asked where the brushes & rollers were. Lost another round. |
