Dude that's so kickass that you do DI. Are you like a coach or what do u do?

[bigmike28]

Well Im sort of a team manager(coach) my real title is DI Coordinator which means Im pretty much the middle man between the State and National DI Boards and the Teams, with the school thrown into that equation somewhere. I take materials given to me by the DI Boards and then give them to the teams. I also hold the budget for the teams and can write out Purchase Orders for the school for materials and stuff like that. I think it rocks and I want to do it again next year

YAY that's soooo awesome!!! It's great when people our age do good things and are successful already. I kinda feel like going up to "those people" we went to HS with to just be like "in your face, look what I've been doing, what have you done good lately."

Hells yes it is. Youre right I see 'those people' all the time cause well Im one of the ones still here and their pumping gas but still living of my tax dollars because pumping gas doesnt support their asses! HA!
I'll have to fill you in after Regionals on how my teams did.
