actually, what I said was "we up here in Sparty land obviously favor academics over the football program… "
which I meant to convey our obvious lack of attention to the football program (:rolleyes: ) and was in no way intended as an academic slur to our neighbors in the South (although, as I recall, we have more Rhodes Scholars associated with MSU than U of M does, nyah nyah )
(I was joking…) Note the attention to detail by selecting only the green smilies to use…
** Ralf **?/ you ** work ** for MSU, too? which department? I was a student there from 72 - 76, have been back to speak at CJ, Soc. Work and Education classes in the past several years.
Yup. I work in Administrative Information Systems, though it was Admin. Data Processing when you were here. We’re the administrative computer jockeys on campus - you know, payroll, personnel, accounting, that kind of thing. I’m a systems analyst here, hence the name RalfCoder. The folks next door in the Computer Center do the academic and research stuff. we’re located in the Admin. Building, right by the beach on the Red Cedar.
And I think the idea of lunch is great. How about we let BunnyGirl get settled in next week, and then we’ll set a date and go thai one on?
Aww, I feel so at home on this thread.
Right now I’m sitting in my East Lansing apartment smiling as I see references to El Az, Yakeley/Gilchrist and Bangkok House on the screen.
If I weren’t sick, I’d probably go get a burger and a beer at The Peanut Barrel (which I’m shocked hasn’t been mentioned yet)
I’ve never disclosed this on here before, but I’m editor of the paper at MSU. We’ll be playing the staff of U of M’s paper the friday before the game in Ann Arbor.
We’ve lost three years in a row to them… but not this year. We’ve been practicing for weeks to kick their butts all the way to the Diag.
Speaking of the Michigan Delay, er, Daily, here’s a lovely column they ran last week. I guess even the Wolverweenies are ashamed of this one:
