Today is the last day that Tyrone Jordan, my CEEP student, will work with me. He is an incoming freshman who will begin his first semester at CMU this fall. He is smart and willing to learn. I know this because I gave him assignments such as "create a web form for me with this printed survey and here is the FrontPage 2002 book to learn how to do it." I expect people who work with me to be able to learn how to do their jobs and not have to be told exactly how to do it.

Last Friday, I bought a blue Dodge Grand Caravan sport minivan. It is cool and even has a DVD player. Wow! I wish I had this minivan instead of my Dodge pickup truck when my mother and brother were visiting me in the summer of 2000. See my minivan at http://www.cba.cmich.edu/faculty/holme1mc/. Now I can take six people with me on my trips.
