Gonna need new excuses

[marcfj60]

For the last 5 years I have used school as my excuse for not being able to attend things or not having enough time to build something for my truck. I'm going to have to find new excuses now because I got notice from my advisor today that I had passed my Master's examination. I'm done. I have completed all the requirements for my degree.

Does anybody have any suggestions for the new excuses?

The economy sucks?

Work to pay off student loans!

Umm, sure! You finally realized you have a sac, but you are not sure not how to them yet??? Congrats on the degree!

You need to rotate the tires on your unicycle.

Congrats sir! That's a big undertaking, and to be done has got to be sweet!

I don't even know how to respond to this one.

It hasn't really hit me yet. It's good to know I don't have it hanging over my head any more. It seemed like this day would never come, considering I started on it in January 2005.

It means I can go to Cruise Moab finally, since it's always been held right before finals and during the time that term projects were typically due. I'm sure Danise will push the honey-do list with more force now since I can't use school as an excuse to avoid house projects I really don't want to do.

... since I can't use school as an excuse to avoid house projects I really don't want to do.

Was that an admission of guilt? Congratulations Marc. That is a huge deal.

Congratulations!

Don't feel bad, it took me seven years to get a BSc.

Congratulations Marc!

For excuses, you can look to Onur for good ones. Go for a PhD, get a 2nd or 3rd job, chase women, work on stranger's trucks, get a big hairy dog, ...

Congratulations Marc! You don't need any new excuses, now you can just concentrate on having fun! (When you're not tackling that honey-do list, that is.)

I'm looking forward to seeing you and the family at Cruise Moab. You will all have a blast!

I think the word "jealous" comes to mind.

I think it's because Mikey loves you so much.

w00t!!

First off. WAY TO GO BUDDY!!! it will feel good for a while, enjoy it! and don't be in a hurry to jump into any other projects, just do what sounds reasonable and take a break for a bit before you "resume" previously neglected duties... my .02$

second. hasn't work taught you all you have to do to avoid actually doing work is spend more time planning to do the work? it may or may not be my secret

Are you feeling the luv Onur?

Rory picked on you for years and now he is so p-whipped he'll never get out and do guy things any more so someone else needed to step in and pick up the torch for Rory.

[marcfj60]

I see Rory at work nearly every day. I need to tell him what he's missing.

Take some time and enjoy life before jumping into something else...

congrats man; as for new excuses, I think that Onur may have me beat; or was that degree in engineering?

Are you over 35? use the " i'm too old excuse" you'll get far with that one in this crowd. Maybe we can just be a beer and TV and popcorn club. Congrats!
