Southern Miss Refrigerated 18-Wheeler

Date: Jul 25, 2006

So the Bandit can deliver 400 cases of bootlegged Coors beer to Big Enos'..errr....Shelby's big party. You wouldn't want it to be hot, would you?

Why would Southern Miss own an 18-wheeler with a refrigerated box trailer?

To transport genuine "Shelby's Finest USM Polymeric Weiners" to various hot dog focused events throughout the south--garden parties, county fairs and such. It's a project of the Economic Development folks, heartily endorsed by the USM PR department. Just think of the free publicity. Moreover, this is another first. USM is the only university in the U.S. with its own signature franks and refrigerated semi rig.

Ok, gang - let's get serious.

I saw with my own two eyes a "Southern Miss" tractor/trailer at a local truck stop this morning fueling up. The trailer was refrigerated. I was wondering why Southern Miss needs an 18-wheeler much less a refrigerated tractor.

Lots of reasons they might need to use one, but are you sure they own it? Can't think why they'd need to own it unless it was donated.
Were there any books/papers etc left from the Coast? Being dried out or preserved?

Maybe the Coors idea isn't correct.

Maybe Shelby was going to use it to smuggle illegal immigrants into Hattiesburg to replace the Physical Plant workers, but now that the PP outsourcing was halted, the truck will sit idle.

If there were another serious hurricane on the coast, it would be very handy for saving wet paper office records and library materials.

Hmmm... Is any department now offering an Executive MBA in Commercial Truck Driving?

You know, 'Vict, the folks at USM have so very many brilliant ideas of their own, maybe we should refrain from offering them any more.

Perhaps it could be leased? One immediately thinks of champagne and flowers for Andrea's wedding? I shall have to note this on Miss Angleterre's calendar. Where are the pens?

Okay, now I really am going to quit posting about my wedding so that Thibodeaux and T-Fred can't find us! I'm not quite sure how to explain an alligator as a wedding guest to these non-Cajuns up here.
