last poster 2005

Date: Dec 30, 2005

I'll pass on the race to be last, but I'll try to post something positive. Here goes:

USM is no longer on SACS probation

2006 will be the last full year of SFT's presidency

There will be faculty pay raises in 2006

Bob Dylan will release a new studio album next year

Date: Dec 30, 2005

Wow! Not sure that anywone can top that! On to a SFT free future!

Happy New Year!

It's a fact. When we reach 06m we can say in the Spring of next year SFT should be gone.

And don't forget that about May 2006 the Glamser&Stringer settlement will no long require them to be silent. That last year of SFT's mismanagement should be verrrrrrrry interesting.

I, too, will be waiting for May. Happy New Year, 2006! Here's to all of us who refuse to be told how to think, how to act, and how to feel.

I was "tester" -- the board is not letting me post more than a few words. Anyone else having trouble?

Date: Dec 31, 2005

Nope. I'm doing fine.

As evidence that I can post more than a few words:

Let us try once more.

I wanted to remind our faithful board readers that both Professors Glamser & Stringer are Honorary Gentlemen Callers at chez de Guerre. One does not earn this appellation easily; the first requirement is that one be, in fact, a gentleman. Therefore, we do not expect to see either professor engaging in the unlovely and undignified behavior of their adversaries.

Those new to the board will recall that M. de Guerre has regular Gentleman Callers, who are privileged to accompany her to dinner, the theatre, etc. so long as they observe the rules which were posted earlier. Honorary Gentleman Callers are those esteemed friends who are either married or for personal reasons would not "date" Mademoiselle, but are always welcome to telephone, or come by under appropriate circumstances. M. de Guerre is somewhat of the "old school" in such matters.

A most happy new year to you all!

Hermione Angleterre, Social Secretary to Monique de Guerre

A personal note to M.A.S.: thank you for your encouraging and much appreciated note at Christmas. I feel that I know you as well.

I don't know if I'm the last poster of 2005 or the first poster of 2006.

What ever, happy new year to all at USM, brighter happier days are ahead.

Was the requirement that the last poster be in the central time zone? It's still 2005 in California, where I'm visiting with my family, so unless someone in Hawaii or farther west posts, I may be the last poster.

As far as positive comments for the future, I will say along with Aragorn that there's always hope. After all, "The meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace" (Ps. 37:11).
