    ...I was actually born in a Mississippi hospital named after the confederate president so there is that. Y'all aren't being poked at by a random.

    I can remember when we had everything to get hooked up, but the phone call to a server cost too much to get online because it was long distance.

    One thing I've never understood about MS...why isn't one of the larger public universities any closer to Jackson? Why are they out in BFE?

    ^ if you went to a private school in a 1A district (small school, so small chance) there's a VERY good chance I played sports in the same district at the same time you did.

    Sounds like a long drive. I'll take your word for it. BRB though, need to go saddle up my horse for the ride home from work right after I stop at the outhouse.

    ^ I would think the subset of Mississippians here (and on the internet in general) would be among those that could read that thus invalidating the usefulness of the meme...
