<p>my mom said that my dad got my decisions in the mail, and asked if i want to know if i got in.</p>
<p>I said tell me later, im busy at west point.</p>
<p>:-P</p>
<p>I'll keep you all posted.</p>
<p>Go Army! Beat CG and MMA! :D</p>
<p>ARRRRGGGGG! Hold on now. He's not done looking around. :P Let the boy think!! LOL
GO MMA BEAT GC & Army!!!! :)</p>
<p>I predicted some time ago that the Taff-ster would wind up in New London...let's see if I'm right... ;)</p>
<p>Nah- my money is on USMMA- he wants to do crew, and KP has the best uni's on the water- barr none!!! ;)</p>
<p>I think he's going to Davis</p>
<p>Wish I had Taffy's parent's phone #. I'd call & tell them how to steam open letters. It's easy! Can't stand it having to wait till the little bugger gets back home to let us know. Well, if he ends up at Davis, I'll have to send him brownies while he's re-applying for next year! To USMMA of course.....</p>
<p>Davis??? where the heck is Davis???</p>
<p>The University of California at Davis. Its the UC Cow College</p>
<p>go to Cali, anyone who says these places are the right thing, well they lied</p>
<p>UC cow college????</p>
<p>While having a broad curriculum, Davis is the school in the UC system that has an strong emphasis on agriculture. The viticulture and enology department is perhaps the best in the world.</p>
<p>But when you get right down to it, its really just a cow college.</p>
<p>Its sports teams aren't called the Aggies for nothing.</p>

<p>Oh really?</p>
<p>...and what credentials do YOU have (other than rank cluelessness) to make such a transparently stupid statement?</p>
<p>This ought to be good... :rolleyes:</p>
<p>davy,</p>
<p>I'm really curious as to why you would say that. You've been a voice of reason and have been encouraging to candidates. A bad day or week could be one reason. But a turnaround in attitude leaves me wondering about the reasons.</p>
<p>You mean this guy is AT a Service Academy?</p>
<p>Oh, WONDERFUL! :rolleyes:</p>
<p>Have Dave, if you think they lied to you, do my tax return a favor and resign, would you? I'd rather spend it on kids who won't quit or whine about the places. Thanks.</p>
<p>Sorry, folks, but I will not tolerate statements against the Service Academies that are not true. Everyone going in knows DAMNED well what they are getting into, as well as what those places are, so claims that they "lied" are founded only in sour grapes.</p>
<p>Are they tough to get into? Yes. Are they tougher to graduate from? HELL yes. Do the catalogs paint a rosey picture? Damned straight. Do they LIE? NO.</p>
<p>The only time that a Service Academy isn't the "right" place to be is when the CANDIDATE is wrong. Period.</p>
<p>And if you're simply having a bad day, davy, then please learn some restraint. There are kids out here who are thirsting for information, just as you were once. Tell them the truth, but don't run the place down because THAT is NOT the truth, and you bloody well know it. If it's that bad, QUIT.</p>
<p>ah, enlightened I am! Thanks LFWB- who knew, a cow school! must be like the horse school we have in upstate NY!! (or is it mules....???) ;)</p>
<p>I trhought it was just the Highland Falls Trade School</p>
<p>

<p>Are we thinking the same place? <evil grin=""></evil></p>
<p>Don't know if "mules" is the right term! ;)</p>
<p>I am at the University of Illinois - Urbana Champaign right now. instead of at CGA. we canceled the CGA visit, and I'm enjoying UIUC a ton. I asked my mom if we could go see usmma but we don't have time.</p>
<p>CGA - try again next year, dumbass!
USMMA - welcome to kings point, dumbass!</p>
<p>Hey, taffy. Make sure you go to the Moonstruck Cafe for the best hot chocolate ever. It's right across the street from the Union. And I can't wait to read your report on both schools.</p>
