Howdy folks!  This morning I start my written exam for my PhD.  I've got 3 days to write a set of papers in response to question from my committee.  This is the big gateway before I begin work on my dissertation proper.  For those of you that pray, I'd certainly welcome some prayers!
God Bless

I don't know DG, anything that stays underwater all of the time smells a little fishy.  :lol:

But I think Arthur is okay.  :D

I pray for your sanity. Else I'm more than certain you can gitRdun!

Friends, the encouragement and well wishes here and your prayers mean more to me than I can express.

Whew.  That was decidedly difficult.  It is done.  Whether or not it is enough remains to be seen.  Now I'm going to sleep for a week.
God Bless

Congratulations!

Sorry I didn't wish you well sooner but I've been on vacation the last week.

Nice work passing this hurdle, Benton! It's a good time to catch your breath before you start sprinting up to the next one. :-)

Thanks to everyone for the support! 

This morning I was informed that, by the unanimous consent of my committee, I passed my written exam. 

And I was able to breathe again for the first time in a week.  I've been pretty stressed about this, so I am positively giddy with relief today.
God Bless

Congratulations fellow Aqua-nerd! You've earned it.

Congrats Benton! Seeing your success, and your positive attitude, you have definitely been an inspiration for me to keep pushing forward with my own Education. Thank you.

Me, I figure he will either start hanging out on the 86th floor of a skyscraper and surround himself with a group of adventurers, or he will adopt something like grey armor, saffron robes, or maybe tentacles, and turn to crime.

BG is more the 86th floor type, Glob....

Wow, thanks CB, that's awesome to hear!
