    As I noted above, I had a bunch of money saved up and had money coming in from the G.I. Bill. Back then, they were paying something like $380/month. It didn't matter which school you attended, they still paid the same amount. So, I went to a local junior college for the first two years and it worked out great.

    I don't think I could have put in 16-20 hours of school work plus working a full time job. I know some people have done it but it wasn't for me.
    I don't know how I got the idea that Green_Eyed was Navy and not Air Force, but anytime I'm wrong, feel free to tell me. I suppose at the moment I'm focused on my older daughter's career, and I'm oblivious to a lot else. Or maybe I just have my head stuck up my ass.
    Yes, Mr. Death... I'll play you a game! But not CHESS !!! BAH... FOOEY! My game is...

    eh, that was a different lifetime ago anyway.
    When you're left out of the club, you know it. When you're in the club, you don't see what the problem is.

    I am Green-Eyed.

    Sorry, what did you say? It's hard to hear at the moment.
