Registered for one, that is uno, class for spring semester at my local community college, auto engine repair. Even got a "scholarship", so no tuition. I haven't been in school since 1975 except for in-service LEO training which doesn't count because it is impossible to flunk. If I like it, I might take courses in brake systems, suspension ect. Clean slate, I have never even changed the oil in my own vehicles.

I've been back to college so many times, you could call me Rodney Dangerfield.



And I still don't get no respect.

Well done, Stan. I’m a little jealous.

Been thinking about a machinist class myself.

Ha ha. Don't blame you. It's not a student loan though. The lady said it was a scholarship! How I qualify for a scholarship, I do not know. May it's because I'm 68 years old. Pays for the tuition though. The lady told me I did not qualify for the Federal Covid assistance thing because I make over 8000.00 a year, so I told her I could pay the 330.00 for the tuition but the lady told me I should take advantage of the scholarship thing, so I did. Now I am officially a sponger.
