I have uncovered a letter that Kevin wrote home to his parents shortly after enrolling at Clemson which I would like to share with y'all....  . . .  I'm a Tiger Cub from Clemson South Carolina's greatest school. I drive a pickup truck with antlers And all the ladies think I'm cool. I got my Tiger 1 Card in my hand I got my Tiger Stripe account. Spend money like a drunken sailor And never look at the amount. I'm right here majoring in sandbox With a minor in Fizz Ed (I shake my Coke when he ain't lookin' And I aim it at his head!)  They said that I could be a thespian But I'm a real man and then some... A future leader of my country, I'm a tiger cub from Clemson! Chris Rock is my favorite teacher.. The football coach is Dr. Ruth. We're gonna beat the Gamecocks some day (Though I won't see it in my youth) We have to take a foreign language So English is the one I chose Cause I'm a tiger cub from Clemson! That makes me special...I suppose. I've learned a million things at Clemson Like Grape Nuts really ain't VD A G-string ain't part of a fiddle Diaphragms ain't geometry The teachers marvel at my progress.. Already know my ABC's 'Cause I'm a tiger cub from Clemson! (Hold the applause down, if you please) My buddies sent an invitation To join their fine fraternity. It's got a funny name I can't pronounce 'Cause it's all Greek to me! But I am proud to be a part of This great university... I am a tiger cub from Clemson! Don't everybudy envy me??????!!! |

*giggling* oh you are wicked, dear Balladeer...I guess that is why we all love you so much. There is a touch of the devil in you and a very loveable devil he is too.  Love I leave with you whether it is in your life now or yet the essense of your dreams. [This message has been edited by Startime (edited 11-18-2001).] |

Awww man how do you make Hobbes do that? I like the overall message: "If you want to learn, go to a library, if you want to drink beer, go to college" |
