Hi guys.
Learning to live in a hotel longterm.
Lots of fun.
Alaskan Airlines has really gone downhill.
You have to buy food if you want a snack on a 3 hour flight.
Just dumb.
Seatac airport was a zoo on sunday.
They lost my luggage for 27 hours.
At least I have wireless broadband in my room.

I am checking the group through Google.
I still hate their interface.

So if anybody feels like sharing some food, while I'm down
here, email me. or call my cel 425-591-6816
We are done at Hellier by 5 pm each day.
I have my Mag Particle test Tomorrow.

Um, isn't a "mag particle test" also known as "Magnaflux" and used to
inspect for cracks in welds and whatnot?

Hi Ed.
I am studying to become a Non-Destructive Testing instructor at my
school.
This means 3 weeks of classes at Hellier International in Anaheim.

www.hellierndt.com/

I passed my Magnetic Particle test today, so I am now qualified to Mag
Particle level 2.
To be certified I now need many hours of using Mag Particle inspection
equipment.

Thursday and Friday we do Dye Penetrant levels 1 + 2.
Next week is level 1 Ultrasound, and the week after is level 2
Ultrasound.

The best time was my last 3 of 6 weeks in France - Bordeaux - weekends - all
was wandering around and checking out the sights - in spite of the can't speak..
I could point and get money and got smiles.

I moved from a loop type hotel to a downtown 5 star Motel - by IBM. Once they
realized where I was they paid for the switch. I was there to help and train
them. Good engineers.

An indoor shopping center with food store and department store - three stories
of window looking.

I found the VAT tax - value added tax - on English written books was out of
sight. It was simply not French, tax the xxx out of it.

Good luck with the habitat!
