Ahhh .... so we come full circle with LATEX, the new sovereignty ... with SkyMike as Prez and FF and Treasurer ... Strato as VP perhaps? We could be the new oil cartel of the south!

Carpetbagger schools.

From Wiki:
>>Founded in 1873, the university is named for shipping and rail magnate "Commodore" Cornelius Vanderbilt, who provided Vanderbilt its initial $1 million endowment despite having never been to the South. <<

And, my personal bifurcated Southron stubborn opionion about
Auburn is that it started out wonderfully. And then became
the hideous malignancy it is today after the war ended and
they sold out the ag & mechanical roots to some highfallutin'
bull honkey that attracts every fool this side of Bakersfield CA.
I only ever feel compassion for Auburn because they gave us
the Round Mound of Rebound hissef, and I just love that man.

I wasn't meaning that Texas isn't a Southern State.

Most of the Texans I know refer to themselves as TEXANS not Southerners.

It was meant as a complement to all you Texans.

Vandy is a founding member of the SEC... they are not going anywhere. No matter how many losing seasons they have.

If the SEC takes a school... I would rather have A&M.

Just because OK sided with the South.... doesn't qualify them as a Southern State. England and France sided with the South. Are they Southerners?

Missouri is "Called" a Southern State but if you can't get sweet tea in a St Louis resturant..... you lose your Offical Southern State Card.
