My Incredibly Unremarkable Life

Today's accomplishments?

Got some general tidying done. (The operative word is some.)

And now I have the big collegiate game on TV--Alabama and LSU are battling it out for a collegiate number one ranking. At the moment I forget who is ahead (I think it's LSU) but I don't particularly follow collegiate football.

My first college (an eternity ago) was Cornell, and they prided themselves--as an Ivy League school--on NOT stressing football. If I remember corectly, they did not play in any post-season games.

The rest of the colleges I attended were either too specialized (Newark College of Engineering for one) or too small to support football. These included such schools as Brevard Community College in Florida, then University of New Orleans here. And Tulane grad school for a while.

(I should note that Tulane has a regular collegiate football schedule, but not in a big-time conference.)

Of course, once we settled here (for the second time) the Saints were the major football interest.

So---today has been another IUD.

Guess I'll go back to watching the football game.
