Then there's Mongolia
3 months & 3600 km on horseback
Reminds of Bo Didley’s song, “who do you love”
I walk 47 miles of barbed wire
I use a cobra-snake for a necktie
I got a brand new house on the roadside
Made from rattlesnake hide
I got a brand new chimney made on top
Made out of a human skull
Now come on take a little walk with me, Arlene
And tell me, who do you love?

"I have never met anyone as
extraordinary as you are. I have never had a mentor, coach, professor, teacher, etc. push me the way you do...You pushed me and I learned quickly that if I wanted anything out of this life, I needed to
work very very hard. Not only did you push me, but you showed me I was capable of being great...Thank you for the time put in, the effort, and the work you do. Dr. Fisher, you have opened my eyes to a world that I never thought I would explore." - BH
Dr. Fisher, you pushed me to be great and helped me realize that so long
as I am always open to learning, I can do great things. You did what I wish every professor did; you taught not only subject matter, but also taught how to use that education to be successful in
life. It took someone great to help me see just how big the world is and just how many great opportunities there are." - RB
"Language plays a big part in our daily lives. I never really thought of language as being more than just words, but now I know that it's a vital part of our lives. I listen to my baby try to make sounds
and I associate that with the material that we have covered. I smile at the very thought that my baby is doing something wonderful that will be a vital in his life." - JN
