Did you miss that massive multi million dollar building right by the stadium?

They have a machine worth more than the entire Ag college.

You could show that pic to 1000 people and no one would know who it is without google.

His company is pretty famous though.

Not in the over 50 crowd

Under 50 crowd



This is what is so bad about Google is it negates the public mind from long term history to soundbites and fake stuff.

In my generation celebrities were folks who had greatly influenced the world in science, business, and similar big picture figures who did something massive.

The generation under me made movie starts and actors the celebrities

This generation has made celebrities of Paris Hilton and the Kardashians

Clearly, we have lowered the bar on folks who contribute to the overall society.

We have a winner. Arkansas gets students from all around the world coming for... chickens. There is a ton of money tied up in that program.

Though, technically speaking, poultry science is in the Ag college. It just sort of overshadows the rest of the department.

One of my cousins is a chicken broker and he rakes in the big bucks for sure. It's a funny thing to say but it's true.

I know, we laugh, but I had two room mates when I was in college (the Malaysian lesbians... its an odd story). One was getting her master's in Engineering. One in Poultry Science.

They both go back to Malaysia, where, since its a Muslim country, they marry guys. The engineer works in the oil business there. The other one in the Ag business.

The one specializing in chickens makes more money! To the point where her husband, another friend of mine from Malaysia, has become a house husband and is raising their children and he has a bachelor's in Engineering.

Its something you shake your head at... but everywhere on the globe that you can have chickens... you have chickens. God may very well have created humanity to spread his chosen species the chicken because they are doing great right now in terms of over all numbers.

Oh yes. As odd as it sounds, in that glow in the dark white community, there are a ton of Asian students, by which I mean the continent not the ethnicity. About half of which wind up settling down there.

And God help me, I wish we could keep more of them in the Ozarks because you will never find a more rabid Razorback fan then someone from Asia being introduced to proper college sports.

As an accountant is that really a tough field?

I have noticed a LOT of MSU decals and license plates on Redstone Arsenal.

Almost as many as Auburn
