    MSU Men's Tennis

    I've been to a few matches this year. Get to one if you can. Team is really good (#6 in the country and tied for first in the SEC). Admission is free. With multiple matches going on at once, there's always something to watch. Because my knowledge of tennis would fit on the head of a pin...

    OT: Name a Movie or Series better than the Book.

    Moneyball. The book is interesting but the movie is more entertaining.

    Starkville Characters

    Agreed! Fiji was Bernard’s favorite fraternity. I’m sure it was merely a coincidence that he told me this in the Fiji house, while I was paying him for his services.

    Starkville Characters

    Bernard the Shoe Shine Man was quite the character. Blind in one eye and deaf in the opposite ear, he'd turn his head one way to look at you and the opposite way to hear you. "Shoe Shine man on duty!"

    Why not go?

    Will need more information to determine whether Jack Cristil, the originator of my username, would approve this trip. If the OP is "performing yeoman duty" at his job and promises to wear "white trousers with maroon piping, harmonized with maroon headgear," to Wrigley, then by all means the...

    All you Grandpaws out there…

    Like others in this thread, I learned that you can get almost any name except the one you want. My first choice was "El Jefe" (the boss), which was summarily vetoed by my ungrateful children and my wife. I'm "Papa" for now but will be waging guerrilla warfare for as long as it takes to right...

    I never liked Marcus Grant as a coach

    I chatted with Marcus for a minute on the driving range at the MSU golf course a few months ago. He's got a pretty good swing. I'll be adding "I partied with Marcus Grant" to my LinkedIn profile shortly.
