Thanks Milco.
If you want your spouse to listen and pay strict attention to every word you say, talk in your sleep.
I just saw Exhaustipated... too old to give a $#xx. (Well, you figure out the last word.)
I've traveled a long way, and many of the roads weren't paved.
Hey John, looks to me like a cross of exhausted and constipated. At our age, there is one
thing you must remember: Never, under any circumstances, take a sleeping pill and a laxative
on the same night.

ThanksActually I had forgotten that your son went there until you mentioned it.
He's majoring in computer engineering. UC Berkeley is pretty much tied with MIT for for being the #1 college in the country for computer engineering, and those were the two main schools he was choosing from.
He took all the AP courses he could in high school in all different subject areas and took the AP tests for college credit and did very well.... probably tested out of almost a full year. So he will hit the ground running. He is also working for a Berkeley-based company as a programmer (from home) and has been doing that for the past year, and wants to keep doing that. He gets a lot of work from that company so he will be a busy boy.
If you have any pearls of wisdom based on your experiences with UC Berkeley or the town itself, please pass them along. He's very independent but it still worries me that he's going to be thousands of miles away from family. :-\

Hey Ron, long time no see buddy.
Feels nice being a mere mortal on a forum. <}
Hopefully he'll be in one of the newer dorms, like those in Foothill. There are some areas surrounding the campus that are kind of ... funky, reminiscent of the 60's hippie-dom. Like Telegraph Ave near the campus, and others where he shouldn't be out at night by himself (mostly on the north-east side of the campus). But the campus itself is pretty safe.Thanks

Yes, Berkeley is tops in Computer Science and also one of the top three in Math which is what my son majored in.

Dana used to work in Berkeley. You gotta watch the parking tickets. They're terrible.

Thanks for the Berkeley tips. I think he will be getting his dorm assignment shortly.
I remember seeing some of the math your son was doing. Just looking at it gave me a headache....lol Clearly he got your smart genes!

Hi Rudy, and welcome from Southern Mississippi. The 124 degree temp is nice, want to try some of my 95% humidity? In any case it looks as if the forum will be a lot more fun from now on. Even Epi seems to be having more fun8/ >:#, can't you tell?
