Hey guys,
I know it's been a little while since I've been on here...... I've been VERY busy and have not had time to do anything.
In the last few months my wife and I have been able to pay off several major bills and re-finanance our house with a killer interest rate. This, alone with the un-stable economy has led us to the decision that it is time for me to go back to school. My last day of work is July 12th!!!!!
While I still have some paperwork to finish, current plans (and hopes) is that I will start school Aug 16th. What do I want to be when I grow up? How about a RAD Tech!!! You know, the "x-ray" man....... Yep I a going to get a degree in Radiologic Technology....... It is a only a 2 year program, but it will take me 3 years as I did not make it into the program this year. The college only accepted 23 students!! This fall I will take some of the basic courses; Math, English, Anotomy and Physiology and one computer class.
What has kept me from rockets is all the projects I have been doing around the house. Building a shed, building a deck around the hot tub, changing the spare bedroom into a office, (so I have a good study place) and re-doing the whole yard (totally re-landscaping the area).
And finally....... I have started a "Rocket" company. Yes, another person who has lost their mind...... I have no illusion that I will make a million dollars overnight, but I hope to make enought money to support my rocket habit..... I also have no illusion (or desire) to "take over" any one area of the rocketry market. I just plan to sell small piece and parts and re-sell kits from other companies........ So....... all you vendors....... send me info about your kits and we will talk turkey......... Oh yea, the name of my little venture is called "TOTAL THRUST"
