GW, who am I to blow anyone out of the water? I can't even keep my dog penned up, she got knocked up, and I had to get a former student who is going to Vet school at Auburn to fix her last week. It cost me a day on the range with my AK/FAL and AR. Reference the writing class, I started back to school last year, most is online but I did have to take an education course at the schoolhouse. After my first night I came home, wife asked how it went, I said fine but it looked like I was the oldest one there. Her reply was "what did you expect? " My point is if you want to go then do it. After the first week or two I had to get the professor ( hell, I was ten years older than him) outside and tell him my participation in the class would be extremely limited in the future, the kids were not thinking /participating/getting involved and I was doing too much. You want to go to school, then do it. Believe me, they want your money. As far as the other kids/students/ instructors, who cares anyway? It will surprise you how many nontraditional students are attending school. Go do it.
