    Small world moment of the day.....

    When the MSU Wind Ensemble was in Galway, Ireland I was wearing a MSU shirt and a local came up to me and was excited to talk to someone from Ole Miss. I was amazed that he'd ever even heard of it so I politely told him that I was actually a student from a rival university. Bonus from that...

    Hightower >>>>> Duggar > Sessums

    I lived in Duggar the last year that it had residents, 02-03. The next year it was closed (we joked that it had been condemned) and then it was torn down to make way for Ruby in fall 04, I think it was. We had fun. The east wing was freshman boys and the west wing was international students. I...

    Will Chick fil A sell at the park today?

    Chick-Fil-A has higher sales per store than any other fast food chain. They had $3.1 million in revenue per store while their closest major competitor, McDonalds, only had $2.5 million. Despite only being open 6 days a week they are doing well and clearly not worried about lost Sunday sales.

    OT - Washing Machine

    I second the Speed Queen suggestion. I currently use an old Maytag (pre-2000 before their quality took a nosedive) but when I have to replace I'll get a Speed Queen like my mother did a few years back. It's extremely well built and the wash cycle is short. Consumer Reports doesn't like them...

    We're headed to Umass in 2016...

    Gillette Stadium's only 100 miles from my dad's house in Connecticut. I'm going to have fun going to the game with him.

    OT-How did Taco Del Mar in Starkville close already?

    We didn't drive just for Krispy Kreme (except once for a fraternity fundraiser) but if we ever went to a game at Coleman we always stopped there on the way back.

    OT: The walking dead...(not our baseball team)...

    It may be time for Carol to die because her character arc is complete but God I hope not. She is an absolute badass and I hope she sticks around to the sixth season.

    Team buses just left the Seal Building

    The MSU band director this morning said that the Alabama state troopers let the band buses run the red lights in Reform. Now that is service from your law enforcement community.

    Thumbs up to the students for 17ing up the national anthem

    I don't know about y'all but I can hardly croak out "Don't Stop Believing" because I've been yelling for so long by the time we sing it.
