Encouraging vaccine research
LongJim replied to 97and03's topic in The Eagles Nest (There Should be Pie For Everyone Forum)
Hopefully so the teachers unions will have one less excuse to not return to work. -
OU is apparently serious. I think Golding is interviewing at Tech, too?

Yep. Another way to read it. -

Yes. That's one way to read it. Perhaps others will read it differently. -

No. It's not my argument. -

Though-provoking comment I read about the subject: ************************************************** "The entire premise of being offended by "The Eyes of Texas" was ridiculous from the start, regardless of the findings of the committee. From 1883 - 1956, the University of Texas banned people of color from attending the university. And then once on campus, put them into segregated housing & seating, while also banning them from representing the university in athletics until 1970....going so far as threatening to cancel games against schools that had blacks on their team. The university also permitted and provided the facilities for minstrel shows on campus until 1965, 10 years AFTER the university was desegregated. What's more racist--banning people from an education for 73 years, then subjecting them to second class treatment for another 14+ years once on campus...or possibly singing a song in black face at a UT sponsored minstrel show 118 years ago? If The University of Texas has been whitewashed from an unquestionable racist & frankly, evil, past...why isn't "The Eyes of Texas" likewise whitewashed, when it has 1/100,000th the connection to racism of the university itself...AND...it's connection is brief and 118 years old?" -
DRC: UNT to host NIT in conjunction with C-USA

Huge. -
In guitar parlance, Tobe was cutting heads.

Not even remotely knowledgeable about rap, but very obvious that Tobe is talented and thoughtful. Love his attitude and message. He crushed that guy in the Sway video.

Did you tell her to concentrate on her ironing? 😉
