First day of class 2009

Nice surprise to see so many males in class. As I said in class, last year I had 13 females so it made all my sports references moot.

I remembered Camas after class. He's the guy behind the ski adjusting counter at Sportsman. I need to get some ski's adjusted this year so maybe I can get special treatment now. ha. Glad his dad is making him take this class.

Jeff is married. Didn't say if he has kids. Jason and Jon I think are married as well. I think I remember Deva and Ashley say they weren't married. Deva says she's bad with money so needs to take this class. Ashley has 20 credits. Crazy.

David worked/works? for Semitool. Must be involved with purchasing somehow.

Patrick ran and owned some businesses before. Sounds like he took care of the books for the company. Good experience.

I tried to keep everyone awake. As you hopefully can tell, I'm pretty casual during class. If I can make a joke, I will. Some will be humourous, some will make you groan. Anything to get a response.

I'm gonna have to bring a clock or I'm going to go crazy. Terrible to not know what time it is during the lecture.
