That does sound uncomfortable doesn't it?
Good job

Congrats! All this talk about fitness is making me get off my lazy butt before I get CHUBBY. I don't want to be the object of desire of CHUBBY CHASERS!

Yeah, that video is pretty insane. I've never seen flash-dance before, but I can only imagine that she's in terrific shape. No shame losing to somebody who's only weakness is cryptonite.
I like the end with the break dancer ^-^

So true, that's the last time I'm competing with a female that sweats like that and wears black leotards.
No working out today, but off to Legoland. I figure chasing my kid around has got to burn at least 1000 calories.
rickyjo, glad you're still pursuing your degree and are still an active poster. Your FEMA suggestion worked wonders for me.

I am so glad to hear that! Can you direct me to a post or re-post what methods you implemented to get your degree?
As for my degree, I think I'm essentially done. I've just got some ALEKS Stats I'm stalling on (I've been stuck on this one problem for two days, even my math major buddy doesn't get it). Basically, I just have what will no doubt prove to be months of bureaucracy and paper shuffling to go. If my wife's annoyances are any indication (she's been done over a month) I'll be waiting on EC for the rest of my life.

When I started at TESC I had 78 units from previous B&M schools. I took classes at TESC and AMU for 18 credits, 1 DSST for 3 credits, ALEKS for 15 credits, and FEMA for 6 credits. If I had known about FEMA earlier, I probably would've maxed out on those credits first. However, your suggestion about FEMA came just at the right time and allowed me to finish up on the date I had planned to as opposed to 3 months later.
I agree STATS was EXTREMELY difficult. Maybe, you can post the problem here and one of the math wizzes here can help out.
