Ed's Story
Life
Hey all you class of 1982 Titans! How are the 40-somethings treating you?
We recently moved back to the US after 5 wonderful years in the Middle East. Yeah, I know, you don't believe me. Life is what you make of it my friends and we made Lynchburg Lemonade from our lemons! Had a great 5 years in Dubai, UAE. We have settled down for now near Seattle, WA. I got a job with Boeing working on the 787 in Flight Training. What, give up the 777? Well, after 12 wonderful years on the Triple 7 it was time to slide on over to the Dreamliner. Hey, new airplanes like this don't come around that often. I'm in on the ground floor, just like I was for the 777 with united in San Francisco back in 1995.

eally bad but are adjusting to life in the states. School is going well for them, making friends and blending in. My son has just about wiped out his deficit in learning (for those that don't know he has Autism, but a mild form that is manageable thank God) and is in 2nd grade with the others. He still takes Special Ed classes 2-3 hours a day. Man, looking back I really hate myself for making fun of those kids! Maybe this is my punishment?
My wife is cold. What can I say. She misses the warmth and white sand beaches of Dubai. It was 50 for the high here yesterday, and that was never the low for the last 5 years. It'll take some adapting.
Are we having a 25 year reunion?
