Spring 2007

Here's my final schedule (tentative at this point) for the spring semester:

1. GY536--Advanced GIS-->T 6:00-8:30 (4 Credit Hours)
2. GY598--Non-Thesis Research (3 Credit Hours)
3. GY506--Directed Research in Human Geography (1 Credit Hour)

So basically that means one class a week, do/finish two 20-25 page papers, and read some articles and discuss them with a professor and/or do a write up on them.

Seems easy enough. Let's hope so!

It MUST be something in the Tennessee River if now Smokey is getting as nasty as the human UT fans.

Welcome to America, where you can sell anything

Just a few minutes after the Razorbacks of Arkansas felled the hated Tigers of "Moo U", I saw someone walking around campus selling something taunting Auburn. It was a picture (he had several desk sized versions, as well as a poster sized one) of a skeleton sitting in a lawn chair with an Auburn jersey on, and a pennant in one hand, and in his other hand a cardboard sign that said "Still Waiting on National Championship". Supposedly it's floating around on the internet somewhere, but I have yet to find it.

To sum Satruday up:

Auburn loses (AT HOME!) to Arkansas.
Alabama wins (at home) against Duke (though I had my doubts after the first half when our defense looked like Georgia's 4th quarter defense where they gave up 27(!) to the Home Dep...I mean...Tennessee Volunteers)
The Yankees (who perpetually have 100 win seasons) were felled by the Detroit Tigers who, prior to this season, had perpetually had 100 LOSS seasons. The Tigers took the series 3-1 and play the Oakland Athletics for the ALCS.

The day's only offical downside was Georgia losing to Tennessee. Can't have it all I don't suppose.
