Textbook for Sale


Long time no updates!

Anyways, I am selling the following textbooks.
CHBE   344 101 R      0-7506-4445-1 COULSON         CHEMICAL ENG (VOL 2) 5/E
CHBE 344 101 O 0-7506-5639-5 HACKER/BACKHURS CHEMICAL ENGINEERING SOLUTIONS MANUAL FOR VOLUMES 2 & 3CHEM 233 ALL R 0-495-27341-4 MCMURRY PKG ORGANIC CHEMISTRY 6/E/SG/OWL CARD/OWL QUICK START
CHEM 233 ALL R 0-534-38999-6 MCMURRY ORGANIC CHEMISTRY 6/E
CHEM 233 ALL R 0-534-40934-2 MCMURRY ORGANIC CHEMISTRY (SG & SOL MAN) 6/E
(same text as chem 260)

Both of them all in extremely good condition. I don't know why I didn't sell the organic text
last year, and I am lucky that they are still using the same textbook this year. There are no
highlighting, no markings, and no wear on the cover for both of them. I have only used the
chem 233 text for 2 times only, and the owl code is still there as I did not open it.

I am selling the PRS clicker too.

The past summer has been pretty busy for me. I went to work in an oil field in Pelican
Lake, and I bet none of you have ever heard of this place. It is somewhere between Wabasca
and Fort McMurrary. Luckily, I don't have to drive up there every week as it will take
8 hours to drive from Calgary. EnCana let me get on their charter flight, but the problem
is I am afraid of flights...

Here are some pic I took.


Rugs....Make sure you keep the truck moving or else....



dead insects in beautiful Pelican Lake...



Can't see anything if you are behind a big or even a small truck....



See the rugs on the side, this is the first ditch that I fall into. I press the brake pedal when the
truck starts to drift. I later fall into 4 more ditches....


   
Does it look like a prison to you? Now imagine staying here for eight straight days......



Room for my first 2 shifts. Yes, there are no private bathrooms....





For the following shifts, I am able to have a better room and it sure makes a difference.





This is actually not my tuck. My truck is even more dirty....



This should be called a roller coaster...There is actually a difference between a big and a small plane...

Me and the other summer student. This is the only paved road in Pelican Lake and it is the runway.....
