  1. I'm only at three so far. Here's my #4:
  2. Oh, the elder abuse charge has already been floated by a DOJ lawyer.
  3. Obviously Jill Biden should be prosecuted, not only for elder abuse and fraud but for allowing people to call her "doctor" when all she has is an Ed.D (narrator: that counts).
  4. There's a Pearl Hotel in Rosermary Beach . . . I wonder if it's the same owners? Nice place.
  5. He played for St. Ed's this season.
  6. You said it didn't happen outside of academic settings, not me. Your statement implied a universal truth that is absolutely not universal. I'll do whatever the fuck I want to do. Thanks.
  7. Still is. Extra white.
  8. And your experience is specific. So is mine. In my world -- heavy R&D focused corporate world (some private, some public) -- PhDs are almost universally introduced as "Dr. so and so", and that appellation continues in all external business communications. Internally? "Buttface" and "what the fuck, dude" usually suffice, but the fact remains that a terminal degree is recognized, almost always.
  9. You have no fucking clue what you're talking about, as usual.
  10. It is the first year they competed in the SEC. The more important questions: would any Texas fans trade our future for theirs? would any A&M fans trade their future for our?
  11. I'd still put her album "Tigerlily" in the on deck circle for my desert island discs, but man, she would be a beating to be involved with.
  12. Natalie Merchant is so damn weird.
  13. Yup for me, but the opposite. Mom taught college English now and again but only had a masters degree. She had to correct students often.
  14. It's hard to top Emmylou:
  15. They were without CJ Baxter? I did not know that.
  16. I think I need to see a doctor.
  17. If you think of it in real time, can you post the artist reveals for that?
  18. Are they part of the Brown Hornet collective? I saw them provide the soundtrack to an old silent film (Nosferatu?) at the Paramount, it was very cool. I think Graham Reynolds played with them.
  19. Yeah, my dad (PhD professor) taught me that "professor" is universal enough, but to never use "doctor" for a non-PhD.
  20. Where was that? I only had one who DIDN'T have a PhD, and he was like 90 years old.
  21. Mobile sucks. Biloxi is much better. We stayed at this place in Biloxi, it's about a 30 second walk from the "beach". More than nice enough, and not very pricey. White House Hotel Biloxi
