MT if you have Andrew's email you might want to drop him a note to think of him in regards to Jim Fergosi's passing.

Real, yellow Easter peeps?

Morning

Canada is slowing down a bit at the Olympics. Hopefully we will snag a medal later in men's figure skating. Had a few disappointments in the last 2 days.

Canada plays Austria this morning. The Swede's only beat the Swiss 1-0 :eek:


And happy V day to all the suckas out there lol

Good morning guys. Thankfully I only have one class today as I didn't sleep too well last night. I do have another meeting with my adviser right after class though. Planning on playing some soccer later this afternoon before I have to take my girlfriend out for dinner. I haven't played soccer in a long time so it will be interesting to see how that goes

Morning all. Parents came to visit (planned before funeral this week). Got in as I was getting up for work, so that worked out well.

This notice is required by law.

Morning, all.

Been a long time since I posted, but want to try to post more regularly.

Last October I had about a four-week span where I lost three people close to me, two to illness and one to accident. That combined with health issues and, frankly, a recurrence of my clinical depression problems kept me out of the loop here. I occasionally lurked but didn't feel up to posting anything. Workwise, I am planning on this being the last semester at the college, barring some miraculous benevolence from my boss. I still like the actual working with the students, but, due to either a personal character flaw of my own or the effects of being ignored by those I trusted and admired most at the college, my heart is no longer in the work. I have been there for 28 years now and am officially the worker with the most seniority in the entire floor, counting bosses/supervisors/etc. but feel like a dinosaur rather than a valued employee.

Annnnnnnyyyway, Thanks for the thoughts and emails from you guys recently (Dan, I did see yours but flaked on responding til now, sorry). I am working on getting my head together as best as I can and plan to stop by more often.

As far as Jim Fregosi's passing, it is oddly heartbreaking. I looked up to him a ton and he was my second favorite player of all time, edged slightly by Rod Carew. As a kid, I got to meet Jim and get my picture with him. Just a couple years ago, I sent a copy of the pic to him and he personalized it for me. Those who did TTM know that Jim was among the most responsive, generous signers of all. If you want to see my Fregosi collection, click on the link below (assuming it still works). RIP Jim, you will be missed.
