One kind is when your boss and the security guard carrying a cardboard box (for your personal items)  walk into your office.  :dunno_white:

The other is between you and the grim reaper.  :angel: :icon_twisted: (what, no skull in all those smiley-faces?)

Neither is announced ahead of time.  :icon_eek: If you can avoid the reaper for long enough, there's supposedly retirement, but it's anyones guess as to whether we'll actually be able to retire when that day comes, with the mess things are in.

My ten year reunion was last week. But, I didn't go because high school was hell for me. Never looked back the only good thing about school was my teachers they made me who I am today. Yup the security officer carrying your stuff out in the little card board boxes. Yup, the security guard hates those days too! But, this ain't the end of the road for me trying to get back into school. I loved school itself but hated the kids! Already, got my EMT and one class from my associates I wish they'd take this class of hard knocks for credit!

Use a scythe - it will hold you up just as well as a cane, and it might buy some professional courtesy.

Not entirely sure.  I think there may be some back story that no one knows on him.  Fluency in that many languages usually points in one direction and he's old enough to have been in the work force for much of the cold war and Viet Nam.  I've met him a few times and never smelled alcohol. :dunno_white:

would be interesting to know his story tho terry, seems a hella smart man, wonder what happened yto him
Title: Re: Last Day Tomorrow!
Post by: annguyen1981 on June 05, 2009, 08:25:35 AM
Terry...  there's a guy that roams the streets where I live...  The story is that he and his friend were at the top of the curve in their MIT class back in the day.  I can't remember how his friend died, but he's never been the same since.  Looking at him, you've never guess that he's a college grad...  let alone MIT.

Sad to see people end up like that.

MIT is the top IT tech school in the country right?
Title: Re: Last Day Tomorrow!
Post by: Toogoofy317 on June 05, 2009, 09:21:55 PM
MIT IS THE SCHOOL! Right up there with all the IVY League schools. I was asked to attend after graduation but I thought I was doing the military thing and well the heart problem. If only?

as in you take an IQ test before you can apply kinda school? as a guy who's in college for IT, i want the best ecducatiobutn in my field i can get. but, i do know, you can't always get what you want....   :dunno_white:
Title: Re: Last Day Tomorrow!
Post by: spc on June 05, 2009, 10:13:22 PM
I don't believe they teach IT courses at MIT and it's not a tech school.  As far as I know, you don't need to take an IQ test for entrance, but an outstanding SAT/ACT is going to be prerequisite.  My cousin had to damn near ace his GRE's and have a few strings pulled.  Tuition is obscene also, he has an ungodly amount of student loans and his under grad was paid for by state scholarship money so it's all from MIT.

IQ tests are essentially useless in todays society, the only thing I can think of that a high IQ test score will get you is admission to MENSA.  (doesn't even have to be that high anymore, their standards have dropped pretty dramatically in the last few decades)
Title: Re: Last Day Tomorrow!
Post by: Toogoofy317 on June 06, 2009, 06:26:50 PM
Anybody actually know their IQ's?  I was a twice winner of the Presidential Academic award which put me in the top 10% of the nation! Was also alotted to go into the International Baccularate program instead of traditional high school. When I graduated I would have already had my AA. My biological creators would not let me go and this is one of many reasons why I hate them (trying to kill me was the icing on the cake).

My high school counselor royal screwed me so I didn't get any state scholarships. I took Biology II Honors (ie college biology) my freshman year of high school. So, I completely skipped physical science and took A&P, Chemistry, then Health Sciences. She told me in the second semester of my senior year that Anatomy and Physiology didn't count as a Lab credit where we worked on disecting a cat all year! Versus physical science where there was no lab, did count. WTF?!?!?


Guess, this is a day where I keep thinking if only  :icon_sad:

I've taken a couple tests online and whatnot, and I usually get mid 130s.  How credible they are, who knows.  If all works out correctly here, I'll be coming out of high school with credit for 8 college classes.
Title: Re: Last Day Tomorrow!
Post by: spc on June 06, 2009, 09:52:22 PM
At 10 my IQ was 137, at 19 it was 142.

That said, I'm a horrible student.  I hate studying and homework and I tend to piss off instructors when I ace exams without studying or doing homework.  Oh well.
Title: Re: Last Day Tomorrow!
Post by: Toogoofy317 on June 07, 2009, 09:55:50 PM
I'm 139 but had rolled my truck the day before and had quite a bit of muscle relaxer in me. Who know's maybe it helped me  :dunno_white: So, far I have not had to really open a book for most of my college courses. I just seem to know it. I can sit in the lecture and retain most of the information. In A&P I just looked at the diagrams for about a minute each and during the test I would close my eyes and read the answers from the paper in my mind. Only, thing I'm having problems with is Pre-Calculus it is the last course for my A.A. I'm hoping I will get back in school with vocational rehab.

I'm weird because I love school. I love learning new things!
