My parents college of choice was BYU, I was scouted by a coach on the volley ball team but decided not to go.. so? What does that have to do with weather your parents were successful in helping you reach your goals... The word you want is "whether," not "weather." Had you gotten an education, you might have known the difference between the two words. My parents steered me towards being able to think for myself and thus stressed reading, writing, science, music, art, and having fun. My goal back then was to get a good education, not a job. It wasn't until my third year of college that I had what might be called a "career" goal of becoming a professional writer. Funny thing is, the spring of my junior year, when I was hired by the Kansas City Star to start working that summer, I was one of three new reporters hired, and there were more than a thousand applicants from all around the country. I know that, because the day the managing editor hired me, he took me to the board room and showed me the enormous stacks of resumes, and said the count was more than a thousand. Hell, I never even gave him a resume. I didn't have one back then. He hired me the night before at a journalism society party at which everyone got smashed. Wasn't until a year later that I learned he had "scouted" me at the party at the suggestion of one of my professors, who was an adviser to the newspaper's editorial board. So, how did your parents help you reach your goals? This, coupled with your last essay on 'ESADEA' (Esad's Educational Achievements) should be making Donnie cream his pants with the joy of being your only buddy here. ....if he believes it. Happy February Salmonbait -- 'Name-calling'...the liberals' answer to a lost argument! You know you live in a Country run by idiots if... You have to have your parents signature to go on a school field trip but not to get an abortion. So Johnny...you must be proud that another ex-military man is in the headlines killing 3 people. Not to leave Snottie out, the guy is an ex-cop too. Like I've said before all the high profile shootings committed by a person over 30 seem to be former military.......and there you are out shopping non stop for a handgun. Makes me glad I'm a Canadian. |

So, how successful were your parents in the path they chose for you? Just doesn't make sense for someone like yourself who must have been at the top of your game, to go to school in bum**** Kansas... What's up with that? In high school, I was on the swimming team for three years (butterfly and breaststroke) and was one of the editors of the school's literary magazine, and, of course, a contributor, and, with a friend, founded and ran a classics film club in New Haven that had well-attended biweekly screenings at a local "coffee house" that was nothing like Starbucks. So, I gather you didn't do as well in academia as my daughter in her first year of her chosen profession.. thanks... and being on a team means **** if you spent your time handing out towels.... Really? I have earned degrees from two major universities. Oh, and it was the team manager who took care of the towels. I swam butterfly and breaststoke, individually and on relay teams. Oh, and last year wasn't your kid's first year in motorbike racing. You've been talking about it here for years and years. And 8th in a race is no big deal. What's her overall national standing? And since she is a pro, what have her racing purses amounted to? In my first year as a professional writer for a major newspaper, my senior year of college (I was a full-time student and worked full time on the morning newspaper), I earned about $10,000 in salary, and this was back in the mid 1960's, as a reporter. Not much these days, but back then, respectable. Oh, and her first year racing in an east coast series, 21 races, she finished on the podium with an overall third in the division in a field of 20 + girls who were regular racers of the division...... How did you do in high school again?? I did great in high school, and college. So, what was her income? None of your business. Odd, I've looked and looked at pro motocross rankings and income over the last couple of days, and there is no mention of her. Next you'll be telling us she races under a pseudonym, except you don't know what it means. Really, I am truly shocked that a parent would actually steer their kid away from an education. |

Oh, and she did it out of the back of a two door chevy, with a 100 cc bike in the 250 class.... yup, third after 13 weekends and 20+ races... how did you do in high school again??? And she still graduated early, and based on your college of choice, probably has a better hs record than you.... ANY college choice is better than no choice. Gee, if she's such a fantastic success, why don't you own better equipment? LOL, Jess rides by far the fastest bike in the division, sponsored by the guy and his team that rode it to 7th place in the Redbud AMA Pro Nationals.. Wow, you know someone who knows someone who had a 7th place finish..... |

Top ten, if not, you got nothing to say to my kid... What was her net income? That is none of your business... As suspected.... She still has amateur status, according to Scotty, so her net cash income from racing would be negligible. |
