Al, I guess we'll have to agree that I don't understand your position in the trickling down hierarchy.

And congrats, Craig and April.

Wow everyone is getting married except me.

Anyways. Congratulations Craig and April!

Craig and April are now officially engaged. Crongrats to the both of them!!!

Hey Ed and Mary I hope you check this sometime this morning, but I won't be able to help out until about 2pm 'cause of work stuff. Sorry about that, but I'll be there later.

I would have loved to see this in Punked.

Because Par too many people saturate the market, and the market saturates too fast. Within a years time there was too many elecE for the system to handle. All those Ainlay guys went into EE or CompE and saturated the market. Right now they are finding it tough to get a job. (Either that or they are asking for too much. From what I have heard the case would be too much saturation.) If there was more stability I would say that a speed up will cause a higher demand. However the case is that certain branches of engineers; MecE, CompE, CivE, EE cause mass saturation. Companies can pretty much choose who they want, they know they will always have an ample supply. It also doesn't help that CET (engineers with out the professional designation) can do your job and for cheaper.

Hello all,

I know I've been mysteriously vacant for the last little while. Ok, maybe it has been longer than that. But I am still around and my vanishing act can partly be explained. since I moved out this summer I have not had consistent internet access to satiate my daily damnyou fix. that and the black screen of death on my cell phone/ my only phone leads to me not knowing anything that I had previously entered into my phone directory (ie, all of your phone #s).

anyways, I have moved in with another buddy now. just north of elerslie road. so I should be able to stay a little better connected with his provided internet access.

I also have a a little event to promote. Saturday February 3 my soccer team is having a fundraiser, as we have spent all of our money, and are still borrowing equipment from a 14yr old boys team. We are having a pub crawl. "Gasp!!!" yes a pub crawl. it is a great chance to catch up with friends, dance the night away to some cheesy pop music, or whatever those kids are listening to these days, and drink some drinks. and now for the details.

What: Druid Fc pub crawl. Hawian themed (free leis to those who dress it up)
Where: A Bar called Jack-Union Hall-Hudsons Downtown- Squires (4 bars in total)
When: Saturday february 3. the day before the superbowl. we will leave a bar called Jack by 8 I believe.
Why: Why not! it will be a good time, and my soccer team has no money.
Cost: an itsy bitsy teenie weeny $15. gets you no line no cover, transport and drink specials.
How: onabus istheway weroll.

One guy on the team made a poster, and I'll try to hook yous all up with some visuals.

If you are interested in the crawl, or just wondering what the heck I am up to, give me a shout 218-5373.

When the oilfields slow down there will be less desire to be a mechE and therefore we will become less expendable.

I fail to see why the inverse wouldn't be true.

Ok, so here's the Mary and Ed moving plan for tomorrow:

- 11am-12pm, start moving at our apartment (#79, 5215 110 Street)
- move things to 6203 127 Street (our new place)
- eat pizza, consume various beverages
- watch hockey, or not, depending on your preference

If you need to get a hold of us, please call my cell, 264-3218 or our home, 988-1643.

Thanks so much to everyone who said that they would help!

I should say MechEs are expendable now because there are too many of us. When the oilfields slow down there will be less desire to be a mechE and therefore we will become less expendable. Kind of like any skilled trade or profession.
