...and I thought Papa G was asking about how far I went on my first date :right:

Regarding schools...Kindergartens weren't invented when I started school but beyond that...

A.D at Butler County Community College, B.S. at Kansas State University, M.S. at Pittsburg State University, + 70 credit hrs beyond from various universities, and the best education of all...a lifetime certificate from the school of hard knocks working with kids.

That converts to plenty of bull sxxt, more of the same, and 70 credit hours "almost" piled higher and deeper. Yee Ha!:jaw: ...and someone accused PapaG of having something against edumacation.

I guess military count as trade school.

I have my ABM associates (all but math) never was good at it.

Have graduated from the school of hard knocks many times over.

Question

Oneastrix...what about your certificate for completing Bike Patrol Training? and other training? And your band's Occupational Permit in New Brumfel and San Antonio?

Are you still doing that...or have you moved on to other types of duties?

Unhappy Short many hours of my BA in business....

Otherwise, self educated with skill-path seminars and like courses...besides 30 years mechanic [darn good at it too] and related fields. My spelling leaves much to be desired but, otherwise, i think I'm reasonably smart. Smarter, in fact, than the average bear.

Hey Rufus...a bear doesn't have to be very smart with his physique and demeanor...but it takes a lot of meat to keep them happy and their disposition can be bad at times.

I'm sure your mechanical skills more than make up for learning how to spell "I".:right:

One year of tech school (diesel mechanics), plus more training through G.M., Ford, Chrysler and independent automotive seminars than I can count. I spent 15 years as an automotive/diesel mechanic and ten years of that as an ASE Master Tech before becoming a truck driver.

PmSpinnerB8...so you're going for more of the same. Are you then going to work on piling it higher and deeper?

It's good to have a fellow educator on board G&G. I believe we're outnumbered with guys and gals who have graduated from the best school of all...that is the School of Hard Knocks.:right:
