I'm sure that'll come up on her FBI background check. \:D

Now, now, I wasn't that bad.


If pigs could fly bacon would be harder to come by and there would be a lot of damaged trees.

Well, time for the proud father to post. David did serve as St. Mary's Law Journal's common editor his last year. It's official now, he's graduating summa cum laude! Saturday will be a wonderful day for our family.

LOL, Ahvatsa. So David is modest as well.

That really is something, ain't it? Dave is the real deal!
Although this is a very high achievement, I'm not surprised. It's the nurturing nature of the PB forum that yields such results. We all have this potential...most of us just choose to remain average.
Right Sunil?

He's that selfless.

He once threw himself on a live case of Corona to save his Frat Bros from possible hangovers.

Wow with honors to boot! Impressive.

Not to derail the thread but you want to hear something interesting? That girl I said I dated that graduated from Harvard Law was first in her class in High School and graduated with honors with an undergrad chemistry degree from I.U. She was one bright girl. But I remember on one of our dates she was fuming because Harvard Law turned her down, but in the letter it said, "However we may reconsider if your father would like to make a substantial donation." Within two weeks she was on her way. Funny how money makes the world go around doesn't it? She deserved to be accepted but it's a shame it came to money. \:\(

Well...Saturday was the big day! Now that the ceremony is over, I can concentrate on fertilizing, filling feeders, and culling LMB. I might study for the bar exam as well.

Here is a shot of ahvatsa and davatsa, plus ahvatsa's lovely bride. I think I was the only person actually ready for this picture to be taken, but it'll do for now.




Here's one of my bride and I the day before graduation.

Great pictures!

I would tell you how lucky you are, but I don't think luck had anything to do with it. ;\)

For sure. I can't imagine how much work getting through law school would be. I doubt I'm smart enough either.

Of course I would say the same about Dental School Bruce!

Thanks, guys. Yes, luck has nothing to do with it.
But neither does anything I can do on my own.

In a word, being "blessed" has everything to do with it.

Yep..Getting accepted into school and getting out are two great days in your life. Congrats! My advise, for what it's worth, is find someone in your profession that you respect and use them as a template and, if possible, as a mentor. Good luck ..du
