@PhDForum @OpenAcademics @TheStrugglingS4
First draft of the lit review for my thesis has been submitted.
My professors on Monday: "Why is von Moltke the Elder cited-- in the original German no less-- in a paper on maritime archaeology?"

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

Respiratory therapy is so much fun. 😆 (apologies to Stephen Fry and @hughlaurie )

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

@MrTravG @ThePhDPlace I'm already planning on additional masters degrees and possibly a second PhD.

Possibly the last view of Cradock’s squadron before the battle of Coronel (fought #otd 1914) showing the Good Hope, Glasgow and Monmouth off Coronel

@rjfaber91 @fakehistoryhunt The first guy it looked like he'd got hit across the face with the flat side of the shovel followed by a couple of whacks to the skull the same way then one glancing blow with the edge basically starting at the hairline.

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

@rjfaber91 @fakehistoryhunt In both cases, a combo of both. The first guy was alive when we (I was an EMT back then) got to him.

The second was "dead...several times over" to quote the euphemistic description of his injuries from one of the detectives.

The "Fyfty" album from @Skynyrd closes with the best version of "Gimme Three Steps" I have ever heard. Johnny going "Gary....sic em" was a beautiful way to intro it and it is a fitting tribute to one of the true greats.

Gary, your memory shall forever be a blessing.

@michexposures @AncientSubHunt She was.

Finding the wreck vs actually doing a recovery operation on the site

[Sam Helle 🐾🐅 @samanthaiam]

Doing the fieldwork vs analyzing the data

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

@FXMC1957 It's one of my favorite insults. 😆

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

@PhD_Genie Having to resort to teaching undergrads.

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

@PhD_Genie funding

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

@PhD_Genie No, I only do that with ones I have borrowed.

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

@PhD_Genie No because I don't care why it was approved.

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

@PhD_Genie Revenge? 😆

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

@PhD_Genie Finding a reward sufficient to motivate me. 😆

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

@EngelmanSamuel @SJBreads @OKWildlifeDept Wait...there are actually people up there?

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

@ThePhDPlace "I'm looking forward to reading what you've written."

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

@ThePhDPlace "Have you gotten the current draft down below the word limit yet or is it still longer than 'War and Peace'?"

[Steve Richey @4N6Steve]

Literally every required meeting I have had to file minutes for since starting my masters.
