I thought of posting this in the TOOTS forum, but the rules there are rather strict, so it ended up in Small Talk, where nearly anything goes. This picture was taken this May at graduation; I'm on the left, and my third son is next to me; the other two are the other father-son pair receiving degrees the same day: M.Div. for my son, STM for me.
I went six summers to get the degree, and the reason for posting it here is that I had only gone five times (1983-2000) before surgery. The last summer I went (2005) was post-surgery, with the full benefit of pumpheadedness. After that, I had a three-hour test, for which I sweated quite a bit. I realized afterwards that if you take the test you pass, but I was still quite nervous, since my brain does often function on a swiss cheese level. But I made it through.
