Joe Defending Thesis - pandemic not withstanding.
Committee members: Dr. Greg Dale, LANL. Dr. E. Schamiloglu, UNM, Dr. Sal Portillo, UNM
Joe defended his MS thesis this spring of 2021. In the middle of the pandemic. He is now a Ph.D. Student in the Nuclear Engineering dept. at Michigan University.
Although he will be a Michigan man, I think that a small part of his heart will always be a wolf.

First Presentation!
Perms are cool
Mohawks are better!
Just fired-keep those ear protectors around just in case!
UNM Engineering!
Retinal quantum efficiency is High-Ray Bans are my neutral density filters!

3 AM Florida-July 2019, Shores of unknown lake. Hungry mosquitos everywhere, likely hungry gators as well. Watching the launch of the Falcon Heavy--priceless
7 Year old twins and a microbiologist in the Lab! The reason this physicist lifts his head from the plasma...and Dreams
7 year old Twins in a convertible. Physicists, astonomers, artists, painters, archeologist, writers, poets, Jazz musicians, microbiologist..what will your verse be? I cant hardly wait to go on this adventure with you! lets go Exploring! 
Sometimes...well sometimes one just has to go to sonic..A Love Supreme
Birth of the cool-Easy Livin
Lush Life- a portrait of cool on his first Presentation
"No hue or Chroma value, everything is B/W.. have the photoreceptors in Joe's eyes stopped working or is the fundamental nature ofl light changed?"
I must be one cool cat! I dont even work in nano engineering!
From humble beginnings-Kost and Max
Its not a bad decision, Its just hair dude!
Pulsed Power makes for some serious dudes!
Working hard and playing hard.. Robert and Nikeala taking advantage of gravity on NM slopes
Ok maybe some decisions are indeed bad-Still cool though-Kinda.
Flattening the curve -HPM/HEDP lab undaunted..still going forward!
Multipulse Transmission Lines - Joe Cool's Blues
That look in the eye, you cant buy. True happiness is being part of the HEDP/HPM lab, like headlining at the Vanguard or at the Half Note!
Tem concurs: Bill Evans at the piano, Buddy Rich on drums, Robert on LTD..

4 swimming races - Go hard or Go home indeed.
1. They grow so much so fast! Just add water!
2. Its picture day
3. Warm Fall morning in ABQ -shoes optional
4. First try at a double windsor knot! Not too bad
5. Long hair highlights on point (fleek, I think)!
6. There are 3 letters - so 17576 possible combinations in license plate.
7. We keep our xmas lights on for ~10 months! Then we put new ones on again! Cus thats how we roll!
8. Yardwork or physics? Physics of course! Physics all the time!
9. Yes, Happiness is kids (Twins!) and a convertible
10. The twins are the reason my "nights are sleepless and are filled with hope and longing"... And why we howl every night.
For A.
do I really see heaven in your eyes?
Yes. Yes I do
