When I was in college I'd look at my last quarter's GPA. If it was above the all school average I'd work more (pizza chef/deliveries) and study less. If it fell below the all school average I'd study more and work less. I was an average student.

Today, I'm out of town for the weekend, visiting family and the NW Bug-Run.


Use a water tank or a big satellite dish for a form, and use carbon fiber.

And as for the jig in that Street Rodder article, one could jury-rig that, or use a big lathe for indexing if one have access to...one.
Ah, yes, I never watched that because I read... a book...

The lowest GPA requirement that I saw for a graduate program was something like 3.12 and last semester I had a 2.58. My cumulative is 2.94, but that is now 143 credits. I really wish that my mistakes on my first Bachelor's did not carry over to this one, but last term's GPA was worse than I had averaged, although I honestly think that it was the first time that I did not drop at least one class. I do not remember where had the lowest standard, but if I cannot get into grad school, I am seriously considering transferring to another school, getting the same degree from a different school, and hoping to find better dating opportunities.

Except that I would be thirty-five and most girls (the program is 90% female) are right out of high school.

Why is it so important to you that my wheels be convex?!

The satellite dish is an interesting idea. I just think that they would be simpler and lighter if they were flat, but I might be able to sell them with a negligible profit if they were moon disks.
