Happy 31st! And many more, KerlanRayne!

31? Do I remember 31? I've had the same wife, 2 more children, 1 new house, 3 cars, 5 jobs, a law degree, and started a law firm since then!

What's the running total of rugrats in the Lou household these days? (Gotta watch you catholics every minute!) Last I was specifically aware, I think it was 2, but evidently my info is sadly out of date.

We have 3. HS Soph Girl born at U Florida, 6th grade girl born in Round Rock TX, and 3rd grade boy born here in Houston. My wife tells me that I can have more children and more academic degrees with my second wife....

So 2 + 2 = 4?

Yeah, that would be funny, if I didn't know your propensity for accumulating degrees! Tell Huong (sp?) I'll miss her!

Simple math. But in this case 2 + 2 = 3.

So far Huong has kept me in check.

But what degree would I want next? I have engineering physics, radiological engineering, engineering mathematics, and law covered. I'm not interested in a degree in the arts, business, or theology. Missed my chance to get an MD. I bailed on the MPH, even though epidemiology still interests me. It doesn't help that I have doubts about the Central Limit Theorem--either that or its applicability to the populations of interest. MSEE? An LLM in patent law? Maybe, but why? JSD requires an LLM first. Perhaps a European doctorate of some sort by publication? Most require a first degree from the university for consideration.

I think my degree-seeking days are over.

I'm sure it is simple. Or, WOULD BE SO, if I knew what in Hades you were talking about!

Its a need to know basis...and you don't need to know.

Thank you for your forbearance. My life's already too complicated without you unnecessarily adding to the complexity thereof.

Nay! Pray, say not so, Sir! Canst thou but grant to me one small boon, let it be this: That you leave me wallowing in the miserable mire of my magnificent ignorance and molest my mediocrity no more!

(Top that, DeWar! )

(Scotley, we have caught DeWar skulking about and lurking in the shadowy recesses of this thread before, haven't we?? Or am I succumbing to a DM's paranoia? Boy, the Constables better hope that's not it! )

Yeah, I've seen him lurking about here a time or two. Time to put out the traps. What should we use for bait? I'd say scotch, but we might catch a couple of our players that way. What can we use that's specific to this particular varmint?

I'd fall victim to a Scotch trap...assuming you use Single Malt.

I'm thinking she worked up a pretty good sweat when those bears busted out in front of her.

I was thinking of Rhun when I suggested we find and alternative to scotch.
