    OT: gold reserves

    these could go so many ways. Currency stability, political instability, personal savings. I don't invest in precious metals or tech stocks for the same reason. As Peter Lynch famously said, "Don't invest in anything you can't explain to a 10-year-old."

    I'm just going to set this right over here....

    premier venues? I'll stick with Jack and call it the 'friendly confines."

    If Mississippi State Athletics were a venture capital deal, or better yet, a stock

    I've learned that to be truly successful in life (and business) you have to take a calculated risk...this is not it!

    Insurance/ AC

    my irrigation system was hit by lightening. My electrician installed surge protectors in my electrical panels which I hope will prevent future major issues...about $300 each.

    Retirement question

    Will you receive a pension check? Is your retirement totally in savings, 401K and IRA? If the latter, how is that money invested? Dividend investments kick off dollars, growth stocks don't. Think about how your investments produce cash to reinvest. When I retired, I had to totally redo my...

    Golf Issue, not about soccer...

    The PGA sets the rules, not the players. It's all about TV money, not "players rights."

    In shocking news - I need a new TV...

    Ole Miss isn't being completely truthful with their enrollment growth

    I haven't the time or patience to delve into the Ayres lawsuit, but the federal court set the enrollment acceptance criteria because of underfunding by the legislature for decades. I've heard rumors from some thinking they can take Ole Piss private to avoid the entrance requirements.

    If you're willing

    Give us a few target numbers. How much is one installation, or one camera. What does $100, $500 or $1000 accomplish for you. People like knowing what their donation can do specifically.

    Worst ref call in State history (topic from the pay board)...

    As for one bad ref call, to me it occurred back in the late 60's in Baton Rouge. State had the ball and ran 2 plays and it mysteriously became 4th down. Screwed without running a play. Jack Cristol was at his best...totally livid!

    OT: Transition from Candence to Huntington.

    Yesterday it turned into a **** show... I've been getting letters for months and thought I was prepared but not after my Cadence branch called me yesterday. On top of completely having to set up Bill Pay on Monday, I find I'll have to re-set-up direct deposit again before the end of the year...

    If it was a good idea, some Florida school would already be doing it.

    OT: Any SPS Cologne Enthusiast?

    Forget the payment on your doublewide. Stop by George Sherman's and pick up a bottle of George! You're welcome.
