Lesson from Ari Gold....

I'm gonna guess that box refers to Amber leaning both ways, not that it makes any sense to me, but then lots of popular culture makes little to no sense to me.

I was writing my post when you posted that. It does not really help much other than it must have something to do with snu-snu.

Box....

Female sex organ....

OK, that is somewhat what I was thinking. And it makes some sense.

I am not really concerned about fitting in to popular culture so all that slang can go on with out me. :)

Specialized (the bike company) had a little presentation tonight from 5-7. They have some Co-op full time and also full jobs open. They had a Cal Poly grad ('09) who is designing mountainbike frames. Sounds like I can do all the stuff required. And you ride A LOT. The designers and engineers have to not only design and analyze in the lab, they also ride for like half-days in the field testing and recording impressions. They have a very un-structured work environment. They don't have too many walls, dogs come to work, and at lunch everyone goes for a ride.

I really think I would fit in at least with the riding part but I am not ready for full time yet. Summer yes, and after June 2013. But not now. So I don't think I will get any positions. I talked to the engineer guy and gave them my resume though.

They are in Morgan Hill, CA, which I believe is where Dinan is.

Sounds like it would be a cool job.... Go for it Max....

I was hoping there would be some girls there, and there were a few. Only a few. Like three. Out of 75 or so people there. Ah, the demographics of Mechanical Engineering.:rolleyes:

I agree, but I just don't think I fit their "operational readiness" status. I got too much time left in school. Hopefully I can get something for the summer.

But bikes are just my hobby. Cars have more stuff to play with. Suspensions are not just planar, and I have a few things I want to try out for my senior project.

Work a summer intership with Specialized into an after-graduation job with Dinan--you know, from stopping by to visit the shop while out on those lunch-break rides. Then go sportycar racing with ALMS or GrandAm.

Don't underestimate the value of that job environment you described at Specialized. It beats the crap out of the traditional 9-5 office grind, or most blue-collar union-type jobs.

Oh, I definately like that work environment. Just I am not thinking I will stand out from all the other candidates who are ready to graduate in a few months.

Are you still lusting after that 993TT?

If ya keep thinking that way, you won't stand out. ;)

Ok... So I thought my folks had decided to keep the M finally...

Got the call today that dad pulled the trigger on a Kia..... Ughh.... Total downgrade, now we've gotta put the M sale in highgear....

hey Rick, i can borrow you some money to outbid Vas, how does 5 Euro and some Monopoly currency sound?

Kid can't handle LSD, but Psylocybin, Magic Shrooms for the uninformed will do just the same thing at less then psychoactive doses.
And the best part is, it's a lasting fix, eat some shrooms, and be clear of Migraines for weeks or months on end..

LSD works too, but it will mess you up if you can't deal with the extremeties of a decent trip..
and it's to potent in nanograms to dose out in mild trips, not unless you cook it yourself, which i doubt anybody here does.
LSD requires commitment to tripping ask me how i know:D

No playing with illegal substances for sid....

Part of that healthy perk package with that internship is contingent on my passing a drug test....

Eat the 'shrooms after the test..

say it's for medicinal use
not even a lie in this case
