Very cool!

And I feel your pain. For the past four years I've been working, half-time, on an MBA. I finished class number eleven last week with a 90.1%, keeping my 4.0 average. It's been a ton of work; my wife's been very supportive, but I'm sure she's as ready as I am for it to be done.

Prior to starting the cpa testing, I needed a few semesters of classes. I couldn't make the $$ numbers work on a masters, so I have equivalent hours but no additional paper to show for it in the end it'll be worth it. I want a masters at some point, but I think it's going to be a few years still.

My poor wife I've been taking classes or studying nearly every weekend for the last 3 years, she's ready to have me working on honey dos on the weekends.

I don't think it was a fluke. I love the Escalades. There are definitely noticeable differences between them, the Yukons, and the Tahoes. Mrs. GTO said the exact same thing... too ghetto.

She drives a Denali now.

That's why I've been doing every other semester, everything starts to fall apart while I'm in class, and I fix everything on my off semesters.

And as for new rides...my present to me when I finish in June is to start my search for a nice 996TT.
