hey, louie, willi, big dale, waldo, le duc du chocolat, and other
ragged and sorry sonsabitches--where the **** are you?

I'll admit to being a ragged and sorry SOB - so even if I wasn't being
addressed, I'll fess up. I'm following in the footsteps of my mentor Opie
by taking 12 credits at UMass/Amherst in addition to my day job. Busy,
busy, busy. I'm planning on earning an MS in applied math in a couple of
years, or die trying (which is at least as likely an outcome). In my
spare time I'm working through the 160 beer list at my favorite beer dive.
And by the way, I found beer heaven last week: Moenchsambacher
Weihnachtsbock.
Awesome, awesome stuff. If that was readily available, I would gladly
give up school, fishing, and many other things in order to imbibe beyond
reason.

I've never been anyone's mentor before; however, I recommend that you take
less hours!

I couldn't imagine 12 credit hours and a full-time job.

Op --6 credit hours and regretting that decision. Though I'll likely do it
again next semester :~^ ( --
