The MR's frags for good grades incentive program

[jhale]

I always liked physics. It was never a major though, just an interest.

PMT rocks, someone has to take lots of photos like you said.
If anyone is a communications major and was looking for a project, doing the first episode of PMT would be too funny.

maybe animal planet would pick it up. I have connections there now

 

[nanoreefer22]

I'll be taking pictures as we move along.

LoL...I should just break out the Video Camera..heh... I want the Animal Planet channel..arrgghhh...You could be the producer. Rich and Kasei would be the founding fathers of PMT.

 

[jhale]

no really Kris, I promise I'm going to pitch the idea to a producer at animal planet. I doubt they would want to do it because of the limited audience, but who knows. mabey it can turn into pimp my pet (that just sounds wrong) and you'll end up with 300 gallon tank in your bedroom. JK, the 65 Rich is hooking you up with should be enough.
so Rich and Kasei, do you guys want to be on tv

 

[nanoreefer22]

rotfl....Pimp My Pet....lol...that really sounds wrong. I really thought you were joking. Rich and Kasei really could be famous. 65g is more than enough for me.

John, my momma would make me sleep in a 300g tank if I ever brought something that big home.

I think a lot more people would be interested in reefing if it was more advertised, like a goldfish. Everyone knows what a goldfish is. We need more "Finding Nemo" movies and "Shark Tale" type movies. Get the reef idea out to the little kids.

 

[jhale]

the whole theme of Nemo was that keeping fish in tanks is BAD, now I'm worried about you. go back and watch it again, or ask House I think he's watched it more times than the people at pixar.
I was joking, at first. but what the heck, why can't we have our own tv show, everyone else in the world has one. you just need two crazy guys and one hot chick (that's the official term), that's the formula for reality/improvement shows these days.
I bet the show would get ratings equal to other shows of it's type.
sleeping in a tank could be very relaxing. I just would not want to wake up with snails on me, blah.

 

[nanoreefer22]

o0o0oppsss...guess i missed the meaning by a whole lot...heh...I'm worried about me now too. I'll have to ask House about that and have it explain to me in detail.

We already have the two crazy guys...now all we need is the hot chick....hmmmmm..... i'll go searching for one on the 5th ave. I'll wear a white tee shirt that says "Looking for hot chick for new tv show" Wonder if anyone would ask me about it. Yea I wouldnt want a snail cleaning me while i sleep....or even worse a.a....a...who knows the end to this sentence?

 

[LiquidBlues]

[nanoreefer22]

Pretty good deal...Liquid does it really get any better than that?...lol...

 

[LiquidBlues]

well.... i did get
3 A, 1 A- ,and 1 C (!@$%^&*)
last term

hopefully i can drop the C this term but it'll be hard... accounting class is just plain awful

 

[LiquidBlues]

pace university for those that are interested

 

[ShaunW]

It has to be a straight up A, no A- allowed.

and YES - For each A you get a frag! Keep us updated!

I say we open it up to the College Reefers too!! Why be prejudice against them?

Believe me, when I was struggling in Grad. school, I would have loved and appreciated such generosity!

 

[nanoreefer22]

I agree with Shaun. It wouldn't be fair that I am the only one. College reefers deserve stuff too.

 

[jhale]

I don't want to be prejudiced against anyone. I thought high school students could use more incentive to get good grades, and get into a good college. once your in college just being there should be the incentive. if you or your parents are paying the insane tuitions these days that should motivate you to do well. the flip-side of that is if you are paying those crazy class fee's then you might not have to money to spend on a reef tank you would like. so in that case I'll support Shaun's plea for the broke college students.
Now my question is it A's or nothing? What if there was a student who was not doing so great, and they went from a C or worse to a B? does that not deserve something? We need to get some guidelines if this is going to be a real thing.

 

[ShaunW]

I say A's only, no A- etc... I am not giving out blue zoanthids, blue torts, and purple bonsai's for anything less

. Maybe if you go from a C to a B I'll give you that partially STN frag that I was going to let die at the bottom of the tank, .

 

[jhale]

oh man, that's hard core. all you students are going to have to bring your A game to get Shauns frags.

 

[ShaunW]

Well they need some incentive! don't you think?

Going from a C to a B, just means that they didn't drink that much during the semester! i.e. pass the glass to the next guy/gal after the 5th tequila shot. Or they decided to finally open the text book for more than a minute (let's say an hour).

It's the A that is the challenge!

 

[nanoreefer22]

So my physics grade would be considered an A right?

 

[spykes]

wow heh i got like A's on all my bio and math class this semsester, only took 3 classes. this summer im taking phy and phl

 

[jhale]

so for students we have:

Kris: senior in high school in the BK
LiquidBlues: college student at Pace.

and Spykes? how did you slip into this group?

Is that it?
