MARYLAND TACOMAS

Yep you know it

 

WV or VA bound like myself are ye?

You can still buy them










Kidding.

 

So was talking to the wife tonight and she says to me go ahead and go to the cove in Oct..she knows my truck needs some work done on it Im confused dont know if thats the go ahead and get what you need or what I want

 

ALWAYS what you want

 

southern tip of Maryland already has me close to half way down VA/WV.....i'm thinking more costal Carolinas, or back to the east coast of Florida
gotta get somewhere on the water that stays nice and warm

 

See there's unmarried young mans thoughts but this could turn around and hurt me in the wallet later ,they never mean what they say 25yrs of marriage has taught me to ,nevermind I havent learn a gdamn thing

 

I used to live in eastern FL

 

what part?

please don't say southern

 

Finally after roughly six months of my hood struts sitting in a corner, they were installed today.

Outside of Daytona. Never been south of Orlando or Titusville

 

Good call

Although Vero beach is worth going south of Titusville for.

 

Never heard of it. Kennedy Space Center is pretty damn

 

almost took a job at the space center after I graduated. definitely some cool stuff going on there, getting ready for the heavy lift rocket.

Vero is south of Melbourne about 40 minutes. awesome little beach/fishing town.

 

A friend of mine used to work for a NASA contractor, didn't know exactly what he did, all he told me was that he works in a clean room all day. Apparently he quit working for the contractor because his team kept getting sold off to other companies when the current one ran out of money.... turns out he now works for NASA itself and he only had to move his office across the hall

 

I'm goin through Maryland as we speak I think! On 95 heading south. Red f150 pulling a tan rv trailer.

In VA now! Cya later suckers!

 

Space/science centers are always pretty cool. Haha I had an internship in college with a company in San Diego that was contracted by SpaceX at the time. It was definitely cool, but theoretical physics and matlab are definitely not my thing. So I think I'll stick to making sure buildings don't collapse. Haha

While you're in MD you should swing by the Goddard Space Center. It's a pretty cool place.

 

haha, matlab and theoretical physics are pretty different animals from one another

I love physics, but my brother is a physics major of the family, so i stick to engineering and leave most of the theoretical stuff to him.

Goddard is a cool place. I grew up in Virginia, so i've gotten to see most of the attractions in the area. Udvar Hazey center still drops my jaw every time i go though.

 

Got to love wives and their encrypted messages!

 

Hahaha yea I worded that weird. The company was an acoustical sciences company that developed a program for vibration and energy control. I was in the R&D division so I was working with the guys that were developing the formulas and doing beta testing. Basically you could upload a CAD model of anything, hit it with a bunch of frequencies from different directions and the program would output the locations of the nodes, high pressure zones, tell you what the resonant frequency was for each panel, and tell you at what load/decibel everything would fail. Haha one of the side projects I had was figuring out why the solar panels snapped off of a company's satellite when it broke through the atmosphere.

But yes, I'm a structural engineer by degree. I'd much rather play with things I can actually see and touch. Haha udvar hazy is also pretty awesome. That SR-71...

 

Bump

 

Sounds like it was a cool job. that was one of my favorite things about using Pro-E to model things. you could simulate your model as being built from all kinds of different materials, and in real time, see howit would react to various forces. always found it odd that you could model something as being made of water though

dat sr-71 indeed
