Far out! Congratulations. Road trip sounds like a great idea! :biggrin:

heartless, I'm actually a year younger than most my peers because the cutoff date for school enrollment is different in FL than in NJ. In NJ I just made the cutoff, but If I had been born in FL I would have waited another year.

arildno, after seeing "March of the Penguins," I wouldn't want to "hook up" with a penguina. She'll leave me in the cold with the kid for months without food.

scott1, It's on the previous page: EE+CE

Graduating when 21 is pretty normal. Some people are 22, but it depends on when in the year your birthday is. Are you in school in the US?

You're also originally from NJ? I didn't realize that. What part? Maybe we should have our PF reunion in NJ! :bugeye:

EE+CE, you will be in high demand and make a butt load of money. I should have done CE as well, but at this point it's too late. Good job! :-p
