I’m interested in the exhibits.
What kind of swimsuit models help to advertise turbo-machinery?
Do they wear OSHA saftey equipment?
Is long, flowing hair an impediment aroung rotating equipment?
Do they have pocket protectors?
Do they break their nails on turbine blades?
Can they explain Bernouli’s laws to me? (really – I forgot them).
In my head, I am picturing Vanna White, but more windblown and in some type of hardhat and silver reflective Nomex body suit so pictures would be helpful.LikeLike

You missed the funniest event of the year. Jog my memory tomorrow with the following key words: diet coke and shake.

Uptown: my choices were a) Turbomachinery Symposium or b) the office. I didn’t get a choice c) the beach. 😛
Sean: There were approximately 3000 male engineers there, 2 female engineers surrounded by 3000 male engineers, and 1 saucy long legged female non-engineer. When I approached her, and before I even opened my mouth, she handed me a squeeze ball. “Squeeze it, it’ll relieve stress,” she said. She was on to me already.
Courtney: Dang it, I missed it. I need to know.

When they don’t give you a choice “C” create it yourself 🙂

I suppose I’m afraid if I chose option (c), they’d remove options (a) and (b). 😛

About Me
Michael, a sinner saved by grace, sharing what the good Lord has shared with me.
Solomon, in the book of Ecclesiastes, said, “I have seen all the things that are done under the sun; all of them are meaningless, a chasing after the wind.”
If you’re not living for the glory of God, then what you’re doing is meaningless, no matter what it is. Living for God gives life meaning, and enjoying a “chasing after the wind” is a gift from God. I’m doing what I can to enjoy this gift daily.
Got questions? I’m not surprised. If you have any questions about Chasing the Wind, you can email me at chasingthewind@outlook.com.

Esther takes place in the Persian Empire after Babylon fell, when many… Read more: Esther: Queen of the Darkest Night

Then you don’t change the page; you press a button. Either way, it feels like a fresh start. But Scripture reminds us that “new” isn’t mainly about the calendar.
