    TRICIA JONES: I heard that you were going to propose to Brandi Svenning at some theme park. When are men going to learn that women want ROMANCE, not Mr. Toad's Wild Ride...

    BRODIE: Hey, now, be fair. EVERYONE wants Mr. Toad's Wild Ride.

    Congrats!

    I'm a little over 1/2 way through my Masters, and it is so much more interesting and more fun than my undergrad. Hope you enjoy it!

    I think this is such a fabulous option for people. It's got way more flexibility than traditional schooling and such a great opportunity to improve your resume. Congratulations!

    I am in the middle of getting my Masters online. I have one summer school class and my capstone in the fall and I am done. I am even considering getting a second one after this one I enjoyed it so much.

    Good luck!

    I'm a bit jealous. I got my master's the hard way, 60 credits of classroom studies for my MBA from Rutgers. Attending part-time took me about 7 years to earn my degree.

    Many of my classes were very interesting, much more than in undergraduate school. For one class (International Banking and Capital Markets) we had a field trip to the the New York Stock Exchange and the Federal Reserve Bank in NYC. We went into the conference room at the Fed where all of the big meetings are held. But the best part was when we actually went down into the vault where they keep all of the the gold and I got to hold a gold bar, which was quite heavy. By the way, Die Hard With a Vengeance had it wrong, there are no countries' names on the cages, just numbers and only a couple of people know the number for each country. DH didn't want to go, so I took my Dad and he enjoyed it too. This was 6 months before 9-11, so I don't know if they let you do that anymore.

    Congrats! I hope you enjoy it. I'm only a junior in college right now but I keep looking into graduate schools. If you don't mind me asking, are all of your classes online or do you eventually have to take classes on the schools premises?

    Thanks.

    I graduated with my Master's in Information Systems through an online program back in 2008. I'm currently in another program (Masters in Divinity) that I hope to finish in three years. Had a great experience with both of them and can't recommend it enough.
    Nothing is impossible, it just hasn't been done yet!

    Been there more times than I can count. Used to be close enough to watch the fireworks every night.
