    So how hard can that be? It's not like it's rocket science. Oh, wait... :bookworm:
    Congrats on everything! And good for you for treating yourself!

    Congrats on your graduation, and a job lined up. Without debt means you can buy more Greek tetradrachms! :happy:

    Congrats on the graduation and the beautiful coin to go with it! I can tell that a lot of planning must have gone into that purchase.

    Although as a Tech grad, maybe you should have gone with a nice Ephesus tet instead?

    Go owls!

    The most gracious of congratulations! Wonderful feat. I hope the best for you as you further journey through life!

    What a wonderful treasure you captured as a milestone for yourself! You will be able to sit and hold this coin and not only reflect on its history, but also reflect on your new history of your collegiate accomplishments.

    May you collect many coins as significant milestones throughout your life!

    Kindest Regards,
    Brian

    Congratulations! As a fellow engineer (electrical) who worked closely with the Air Force for over 35 years I can tell you it's very challenging at times ... but very rewarding.

    Congratulations! I thought it was funny and relieving that working in industry was much easier than school. Don't have to juggle math, physics, engineering, and programming all at the same time. Enjoy your free time.

    Update: I did fairly well on the final, so I will be getting decent grades in all of my classes this semester. I am quite pleased.

    I just got home after escaping Atlanta. Currently relaxing before I start to work on exhibit I am crating for the FUN show. The business never ends, but at least I am doing something I am passionate about. :)
