Proud Papa _ My fishin partner

Herring Problem · 05-16-2008, 01:50 PM

Got good news from my college , career student working on her PHD at Penn Sate.

Finished her 4th year working towards her PHD and finalized all of her class work and theises. She needed to get a fellowship to do the one year abroad study to write her fianal theises. She had been accepted at a University in Kansas as a part time Proffessor for the next year when out of the blue Penn State announced today that she had been awarded a $12,000 fellowship to do her year study in Italy.

This gal has been in college now for 9 years with two more to finish for her PHD.

If I had to go to school for that many years, they would have awarded me the white coat award. Now, I will be short my fishin partner for this summer halibut and tuna. But in a couple af years, look out. All 96 lbs of her catching her halibut las year.
