OMG, Ben graduated? I didn't know he was graduating so soon. What will he do now? And wasn't Star Trek AWESOME? I saw it last week with my mom, and as she is a long time Trekkie, we were both clutching each others' arms the entire time. :) Mojitos are indeed tasty. Mom has mint in the garden, and I am tempted to try to make my own mojitos...
Yeah, since he did all his liberal arts stuff at Willamette, all he had to do at USC was engineering classes to get the BS in mechanical engineering there. Most likely he will be starting his PhD in mechanical engineering this fall :) This summer he's working on research in thermoacoustics (using sound waves and the pressure they make to generate temperature gradients, which could be extremely useful in refrigeration or heating units or other things).
Star Trek was really fun! I actually scored one on my parents by telling them that OF COURSE that one guy parachuting down died, he was in the RED SUIT! Come on, people! XD I don't have a good knowledge of specific events in old-school Star Trek canon, but I definitely know the characters and the general plots, and always enjoyed them.
