Putting the "Civil" in Civil Engineering

Our freshman class of civil engineers went on an outing today. (You might want to check out Johhny the Bobblehead's blog.) There were about 18 of us that went. It was a lab for one of our courses. Called Freshman Orientation for Civil Engineers. We went to Montague CG in Randolph VT. Our professor feels it is important for us to learn and understand golf as it is a very important part of doing business. Plus he wanted us to learn how to be civil on the golf course.

Very nice course. I hadn't been golfing in several years so it was fun to get back out and hit a few slices, a couple of trees and the green actually. We had a shotgun start and played best ball. Our team scored about 42 I think. I wasn't the scorekeeper. I just provided the entertainment for my teammates. Fortunately for several of us our math class had been cancelled for today. Maybe even more fortunate for our math professor!!! She might not have thought it was very civil of us to come to class after consuming several carbonated malt beverages.

Wondering about the weather

So Lynn what are we supposed to do for your kids?

Birthday greetings....

Happy Birthday to my big sis Lynn. She's pretty old. Maybe I should have used a larger font.

Hope you don't have to do your schoolwork today.
Too bad the WIldcats aren't playing at home today.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY LYNN!!!!!

Scrolled

I just happened to scroll down my own post to see what was there. As you may or may not have noticed I have some advertising on my page. Funny that the ad has that other Michael Jackson listed. The one who used to be a cute little member of the Jackson Five. Not really sure what happened to that guy but he can't hold a beer mug to the Michael Jackson I wrote about in my last post.

RIP Michael Jackson

Hello Everyone,

The RIP is not for the past memeber of the Jackson Five but instead someone much more important. He WAS the BEER HUNTER. He knew everything there was to be known about beer. As he lay on his deathbed his parting words were something about one regret that he never had the chance to taste the beermaker's homebrews. And with that he passed.
If you want to read a bit about him check out this link.

So those of you that indulge in this wonderful beverage please hoist your next one and toast Michael Jackson.
