Congrats Graduates!

[chuljin]

I'm sure everyone will want to join me in congratulating everyone graduating these days, among them:

AU Founder Anthony, who, a week or so ago, achieved Bachelor's and Master's Degrees in City Planning from MIT;

(Near?) Youngest AU member Stephen M (Long Train Runnin'), who, mere hours ago (as I write this), graduated from Monmouth Regional High School, and on Sunday starts a celebratory trip.

Congrats!

Duly joined, although it appears the celebratory trip link is only viewable by AU members who are logged in.

You didn't hear it from me, but it's my understanding that a fairly bizarre collaboration is underway. With Anthony tapping MIT engineering expertise, and Long Train providing the reckless teenage bravado, it is said in some circles that a new attempt at a Niagara Falls barrel ride, employing the sure-fire, wave-of-the-future String Rail technology is only a matter of time.

While I certainly don't sanction daredevil derring-do as a hobby (though some have made a career of it, e.g. Evel Knievel), of course I wish these boys well in the endeavor, no matter how harebrained.

And I too offer my congratulations to both of them!

I just wonder if LTR chose Niagara University so he can perfect his ride, and to allow for more practice time? :lol:

Yes, congratulations to both and best wishes on Stephen's trip.

 

[Long Train Runnin']

Thanks everyone!

Tmrw is what I'm really looking forward to.

My congrats to the both of you! I will be in the Portland station between trains the same time your Coast Starlight passes through on its way to Seattle.

LOL. Patrick, will you be the first to give the ride a "whirl"??

Thanks, all!
