AA degrees

Posted By: mtme on 2007-12-13
In Reply to: Agree or disagree - Associates degree...

AA, BA are worthless today unless they are in a specialized field. Technical certificates are the way to go now. Companies are looking for skills not paper that says you took 2 or 4 years of college. I make more money than any of my friends who have AA or BA degrees..

It's 23 degrees here
and we're having our first major blizzard. Just got home driving in it. No fun. Did I mention I hate snow?! Inside it's a nice toasty 68. Just watching The Ghost Whisperer and ready for a very early night.
It is 11 degrees here in

Yes, when it's 90 degrees out, I care about AC. You

100 degrees in PA and my air conditioner is SM
not working!  I am sitting here trying to type with water running. Just called Time and Temperature which said 102.  Never was a summer  person and this is not helping. Hope you are all cool! 
425 degrees/15 min - toothpick comes clean

Just outside of KC,Mo. with a lovely 8 degrees this morning. nm

It's so hot outside you could fry an egg on the sidewalk, 96 degrees, humid, and hot, hot, hot!!!

Hasn't rained in the past 3 days, frogs were singing some' fierce last night, so I know storms will be here at some point today! 



It was over 90 degrees at 9:30 am in South Florida.

350 degrees - 25 minutes per pound SM
Put a rack in the bottom of the pan so the meat is not touching the liquid.  Put about a cup or so of water in the bottom of the pain with some cut up onions and a little salt and pepper.  Place the roast on the rack, fat side up.  No need to cover the roast if you want a good crusty layer of fat on the meat.  This also keeps the meat moist. 
I have a balmy 17 degrees at noon in PA
It's snowing...again.  The kids missed another day of school.  One of the only drawbacks of working at home.  Can't call the boss and say I'm snowed in!  But, yes, definitely looking forward to spring.  I was ready for spring the day after Christmas!
7 degrees this morning on my way to school!

Our kids were dismissed early last Thursday because of afternoon snow showers (better to be safe than sorry).  They also decided before sending them home on Thursday to close on Friday due to expected cold temperatures.  Temps were the same as today, yet we go to school today.  I don't get it.  We were off Monday for an in-service day, but they always schedule that on King day.  So why be off Friday but not today?  I'm guessing some higher-ups wanted a 4-1/2-day weekend.


Back in my day (I'm 34), we went to school unless it snowed 2 feet or we got an ice storm.  We never got off because it was "too cold".  I asked the school secretary about this, who's close to my age, and she agreed about "our day" and said she thinks it has to do with so many parents letting their kids stand at the bus stops for 1/2 hour or more because they don't want to get dressed and drive them to the bus stop and not dressing the kids properly.  She said you wouldn't believe the number of kids she sees at school dressed in shorts, etc, in the middle of winter.  We live in the Northeast, so it's not like we expect it to be warm this time of year. 


I just will never understand some parents.  I drive my kids to school every day even though they're on the bus route.  The busses are just too cold in the morning and they'd have to get up 1/2 hour earlier and we already get up at 7:15 to be at school by 8.  I let them ride the bus home in the afternoon because the buses are warmed up 1/2 hour from picking up the high schoolers first and my kids are only on the bus for 15 minutes.  I also make sure my kids have hat, gloves and scarves when it's cold.  They don't always wear 'em, but they're in their backpacks if they need them.  Why don't some parents care?


Sorry -- off my soapbox.  This was just s'posed to be about the weather.   It's cold here -- BRRRRR


I only have 1 question - if you hold these degrees
what are you doing on this forum? Why are you not putting your masterful degrees to a better position that would be more than the lowly MT
Tea party, ratcheted up a few degrees. :)

I cook mine at 250 degrees for 1 hour and
then add sourkraut around it, sprinkle with brown sugar and cook at 350 for another 1-1/2 hours. Is always very tender.

Today in Michigan it's a balmy 6 degrees with -18 wind chill
With those kind of temperatures, today thermostat is on 70 and that's comfortable.  But I have on sweat pants, a sweatshirt, and warm wooly socks.  Usually it's at 68 and 62 at night.
