Word on the Street Man

Date: Jun 7, 2005

You've been told about a gazillion times that half the faculty don't live in the city. What's your point, dude?

So what's your point, MRX? What does it matter how the faculty voted in the mayor's race? All that counts around here is how they voted in that campus-wide no confidence poll.

And many of the faculty are probably out of town, many are probably not registered, and many who are registered probably didn't make it to the polls.

M. R. X. is trying to communicate a message in code understood by the public here.

DuPree = black = democrat = liberal = outsiders = faculty = bad

Rowell = white= republican = conservative = one of us = Christian = good

The logic of programmed flash words.

Well, as I know liberal Republicans voting for Dupree and conservative Dems voting for Rowell, I think it's meaningless. Rep vs. Dem doesn't have a thing to do with fixing potholes and reporting crimes stats. But code breaker is right, of course.

1600 CDT- Early exit polls from today's vote. Dupree 52%,Rowell 48%. USM faculty-Dupree 85%,Rowell 15%. Final numbers late tonight.

Well, WotSM is an outside agitator. While his final total vote distribution is probably close to correct, his projections for faculty vote are sheer fantasy--the reasoning has been well articulated above. And besides, WotSM, where's your take on my man Shawn--he is likely to be the recipient of many a protest vote, from the faculty and others.

O'Hare will get about the same number as Mickey Mouse.

Isn't O'Hare a local . . . part of Old Hattiesburg? Better be nice, Seeker. You could be sitting next to him next year at the Hattiesburg Country Club

You only run into the faculty at the HCC during the week. They play 6 days a week. The club is closed on Monday.

Hey - if anyone knows how I can become a member of the private, invitation-only HCC, let me know. I'm not much a golfer, but they have a great pool. I even promise to keep my DuPree-supporting, Liberal ways under disguise so as not to disturb the HCC nabobs. Come on JoJo - how DOES one become a member?

Remember our agreement. Ignore this Troll and he'll go away. That strategy has worked three times now. Let's try it again.

The truth hurts. AAUP hates the truth. Truth upsets your agenda.

Yes, Zapper, there are many trolls out tonight. One on each thread. Where's the Flint?
