I've looked at both those schools.  I can't afford either.  :(

I'd have to work full time and go to school.  Also the requirements they want prospective students to have before applying to the nursing program are unrealistic for my time line.  They want their students to have all the pre-req's done then apply.  Once you apply, there's a waiting list of like 2 years.   [thumbsdown]

I've found a school near my parents where you can apply while completing the pre-req's and there's no waiting list.   Another upside is that I'd be able to help my Dad until he gets mobility in his arm back.  My Mom still teaches full time, so she won't be around during the day if he needs her.  She's retiring in the spring, but 'til then...

Carlos, the rent sounds about right...  [thumbsup]  Not sure about teaching spoiled diplomat kids with a sense of entitlement, though... [laugh] 

Kevin... Machinist school?  Is there a requirement that I lose at least part of a finger or something?   :)   Actually, learning how to use bad-assed machines to make neat stuff sounds pretty cool...  8)

Well, keeping your fingers is sort of a long term goal when your in the metal cutting industry [thumbsup]

It can be a rewarding career and if you're good you can work anywhere in the world for the rest of your life.

this will all go away quick, but I worry that it indicates that the weather pattern of Nor-Easters that we've actually been getting for months now will be the rule rather than the exception throughout the winter as well.  :P

I've heard a couple of long range guesses saying slightly warmer and wetter for this winter

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

No doubt, better call home and see if everything is alright.
