1. The official Trek Guy..

   Yup, thats me. I am the shame filled mr. Trek man, and when I post about it, Sam and Ben just laugh at me. (YOu got me into it Sam, YOU showed me Tasha’s daughter. YOU DID!!)

   Truthfully, I wonder what this, the 4th (possibly final season) of Enterprise will hold. I also check out trekweb (and agh, post sometimes) and I am particularly interested in the upcoming season. Spiner will be appearing, Shatner may. I know some other stuff, but I run a spoiler free commentary here.

   Curtis, do you have a favorite Trek show?

   1. fav trek show

      My all time favorite trek, is probably “Yesterdays Enterprise” out of TNG’s series, I liked some of DS9, less of voyager, and enterprise is well intersting so far, tho season 3 kinda maybe extended there life support. I did like the latest movie tho, where it seems nobody else did.

2. Elite club

   Well, there’s nothing exactly elite about the “club”, but you figured out the right way to get an email address here 🙂

   The “right way”, for those who don’t know, is to:

   1. Be a personal friend or relative
   2. Ask me

   Congrats on getting your degree. I keep meaning to go back and get mine. That reminds me that I need to look into the University of MD’s satellite program again, they have schools all over the planet and, according to reviews, possibly the best Internet-based curricula in existence.

   If you needed to go back to school to get a Bachelor’s or Masters, had a full-time job (or two), and didn’t want to have to attend any “classes”, but do everything in a self-study format with periodic examinations, where would you go?

   1. I Attended…

      I went through Marylands Online program for a few semesters. I think it is great if you can ensure that you dedicate some time to it. I have never been a wiz at the higher math’s like algebra & trig, so doing these courses online made it that much harder. For the most part, i did rather well. Tim Clark’s father used to teach a law class through Maryland and had a story that one of his students never stepped foot on campus until the day she came for graduation. The only problem i see with MD’s online courses, is that they charge out of state tuition for those people not in the state, which i lost my arguement about it being internet and so forth. MD out of state tuition is really expensive. Exams were either taken at a Maryland campus or proctored at another Community college. …

      Not sure if this was what you were asking.. but there is my .02 worth anyways… :0)

      1. Pardon the Intrusion but I’m Not So Anonymous

         Happy weird Friday to you all.

         Seriously, I had no idea you all were blogging here. I was honestly looking for an old news release I had written about egregious out-of-state tuition for medical education courses, a release that had focused on Maryland’s med schools, and what did I find, a link to this comments page! I just went back and recreated the Google search and I still came back to the same result. That’s like four degrees of weird.

         Well, to some of you, I’ll hopefully be familiar, others not so much. It’s the aforementioned Tim Clarke here, at work at the moment in lovely Silver Spring, MD. Am settled into a new position with the American College of Nurse-Midwives (www.midwife.org) as Communications Manager.

         Matt, I know its been awhile. Glad to see that you and yours are healthy and happy. Jon, it’s been a while too, hope you are well. Sam, I know we emailed, what, earlier this year, how are you doing? And Justin, its been a long time, too, since SMC I would guess.

         Anyway, thought I would just pop in with this note. Hope you are all preparing for the Day of Atonement (Yom Kippur) – at our house, it’s mostly an excuse to gorge ourselves at the break-the-fast meal. Not that we don’t atone, but you know, how much atoning can one family do?

         By the way, as the proud father of two, I’ll insert this link – http://www.rosenhaft.com/ – to a few now-slightly outdated pics of Sarah and Madeleine (and Lisa, too).

         Again, I hope that you all are well and that this message from an old friend is well-received. Take care.

   2. Where would?

      Where did!

      Kelly is getting her second masters from University of maryland, all online.

      I like online classes.. but they are REALLY writing intensive. An English course that is usually cake was time consuming last summer.. (but did spawn my whole RIAA paper).
