This board is deader than Horatio Hornblower.
B'snukemom...Sorry I just found this email. I didn't log into my email for a couple of days and there were over 500!!! Warner Pacific is a small private college in what is considered SW Portland. I don't know much about it except that I have heard good things. I know someone who got an MA from there (in business?). Sorry I am not much help! PM me and I will get you my phone number. Maybe we can grab a cup of coffee?
I joined the CNV-76 group and was following the links in the description.
I wanted to join the CVN76 family care group, but I have been unable to find a link that will work.
Anyone happen to have one? Or know if this is still available.
Hey DramaSoul - you're from Portland, right? My youngest - college son - just finished up his first year and is looking to transfer to a small college in Portland. It's Warner Pacific - have you heard of it? We are taking a trip to Portland at the end of the month to visit the school and meet with the cross country/track coach. Right now college son is only about 30 minutes from home (which is nice since sailor son is in Goose Creek, SC at nuke school) but if he goes to Portland he's going to be about 16 hours away - Yikes!!
Just looking for any info on the area/school - thanks!
FTLW.....LIKE!!!!!!!!!!!

How about them Blackhawks! Too bad their streak got broken but it was fun while it lasted. Also, heard The Great One interviewed on Dan Patrick this morning. YES!! He is just the nicest guy.
Is Jack Flash still around? Reading back over some old stuff, I guess I didn't catch he was still in DEP. I'm curious if he's in yet?
I don't understand RSS feed but I am glad you figured it out!
Yes I did and you're welcome!
It's actually an RSS feed so I just entered the code (or whatever, can't remember LOL) and it does it by it's little old self!
