Shaking Off The Rust.

Hi Jimmy,

School has started yet again, and I am glad to be off the holidays. It looks like the General portion of the program will be much easier with less unapplied math this time.

Powerplant is working on everything under the cowling that's NOT an engine...like Mags, fuel systems, props...you get the picture. Well, at least I will be a whole lot less greasy this time around.

It means that in three months I can go test with the FAA on General and Powerplant and get certified!I can't wait. I had planned yto do more summer courses, bu will probably work instead if I can find a summer gig. Then I can set aside the money to just have the truck painted instead of doing it myself.


Work is going very badly. There is an infection of the current computer game going around, and students waste so much time playing it, that they choose to skip fencing to do the homework they haven't done for school. I have always been concerned hat building your business around kids is a bad idea, and I miss the days when we had mainly college age and above students you could depend on. Oh well, right now I am trying to figure out how to drop a night and bargin for less rent so as to keep it all going. If it gets much worse, the only choice will to be find night work of some kind and close the fencing center.

Oh well, late to leave for school, should have ben out the door 5 minutes ago. C ya!
