<VV> okay then...a little more detail - no vair (no Corvair)

[Bob & Kathy Gilbert]

I couldn't agree more. When I first graduated from university I had
questions about why I did what I did for 4 years but almost every HR person
told me "It shows me that you have the guts to stick with something even
when it isn't always positive" (or you don't think it is).

Life isn't always fair or fun.

 Ryan, Being not as old as some of the guys here, and maybe young enough to
remember ( I still have 2 Strats with rail humbuckers and locking bridges -
sound more like Les Pauls), let me offer my $.02. 
 School isn't about what you learn in a book, it's about showing that you
can put up with all the BS to get that scrap of papaer. 
 What did I learn in College? I learned that Bill Elliott is a good friend
and knows just about something about anything with 4 wheels (or less!). I
learned how not to run old car based restoration business (it's simple - sit
back and do nothing!). But most importantly, I learned that to graduate from
college, you need feed back to the professors, the same garbage they fed
you. You won't learn much about facts and figures, but you learn how people
operate and how to satisfy them, when they want something from you. 
 It's a pain, but it's worth it. Besides, you'll never get summers off
again, until you're 65 or better!
..unless you want to be a teacher.
