Happy Father's Day
Permalink Closed


I want to wish a happy Father's Day to the many Dads who post on this board.


I don't have any clever poems to post, as I did on the old board, but only the most heartfelt warm wishes to offer you on your special day.


And, to all of the Moms who face the daily challenges of raising children alone, I wish a happy Father's Day to you, too.

Well posted, foot soldier. Perhaps some day the grandchildren of Professors Glamser and Stringer will be able to look proudly on a new USM building named after their grandparents: The Glamser-Stringer Center. A fitting tribute to two men whose actions awakened the entire campus. When constructed, the Glamser-Stringer Center should contain a nice suite of offices for the USM chapter of AAUP.

I do hope that the Glamser-Stringer Center will include a Noel Polk lecture hall, a D.C. Berry library, and a Roy Klumb men's room.

I hereby pledge my $1.83 for the sign for the Roy Klumb men's room.

Serious reminder. There is a Glamser-Stringer AAUP Scholarship being established. Everyone should donate to it. I think Amy Young will be taking checks in the fall after it is all set up (officially). So start saving your pennies.

Thanks you for your generosity, foot soldier. That will be just about enough $$$ needed to mount his photogr inside one of the urinals. That's been done elsewhere with Saddam's photo. Uh, So I hear.

Saddam's photo? It was done with Thames's photo last March. (I'm not kidding!)

There should also be a Marian Wilson Kimber computer room where people can study tee shirt design.

You better bet Marian Wilson Kimber will have her own computer room in the proposed new building, Flash, and FireShelby will have his/her own private carrel in that room. A large unabridged dictonary will be reserved for the sole use of Webster. The grand entranceway to the building will be known as the Hall of Martyrs, with oil paintings of Stephen Judd, Robbie Ward, Myron Henry, Joe Parker, Jo Hailey, Gene Saucier, Geoff and Marcia Hartwig, Bobby Chain, Jameela Lares, Noel Polk, Robert Campbell, and the many, many others - too numerous to mention - who spoke out on the message board or in the media. Those who spoke out incognito will have no need to fear any longer, and their oils will contain a plaque citing their pseudonym in parentheses beneath their real names. A bronze status of Judge Cooley, holding a NO QUARTER logo, will stand in front of the giant waterfall at the front of the building. Truth4USM will conduct the groundbreaking ceremonies. DC Berry will read to the gathering from his most recent book. An aged Frank Glamser will begin the festivities by storming in on his BMW motorcycle, with an also aged Gary Stringer riding sidesaddle while reading John Donne. After the ceremony proper, coffee will be catered, gratis, by JavaWerks. The Chronicle of Higher Education reporters will be there to document the whole affair. Oh what a glorious day that will be!

I LOVE it!  And will all the attendees get colored chalk favors in honor of The Night Chalker?  And some paper & pencils to add our own limericks to the collection from the FS Board that will certainly be housed there?


No Quarter!

A wonderful fantasy, thanks, but I'd be happier without t-shirts and with a Thames-less USM that achieves all it can be, where all of these people can work and teach in freedom and without fear. (And I don't want to wait until Prof. Glamser is "aged.")

NO QUARTER
