I finally got settled up here... in a house that backs up to the old cemetery. Just the place for you! Congrats and good luck with school. ------------------------- That boy's got somethin' wrong with his medulla oblongata. |

Having the cemetery nearby isn't so bad given my research agenda up here. Since I'm currently supervising a project at a "lost" cemetery in Orange County, I'm hoping this one may provide a good comparative sample given it is also historic (founded 1886), culturally similar and hopefully they have good records on hand given it is pretty well maintained.
But I need to replace my back shower window with frosted glass. For the life of me, I can't figure out why they have a clear window pane in?? When I was showering Sunday, I looked out and there was a black funeral going on! It's very close to my house (just on the other side of the wire fence). Kinda weird and creepy but also kinda cool. Some people up here suggested having some spooky Fall time parties out back. ------------------------- Outta time! |

Having the cemetery nearby isn't so bad given my research agenda up here. Well, that's exactly what I meant! Just try to keep your digging tendencies under control, and don't go blaming it on the dog! With October weather in G'ville, that looks like an awesome place for a Halloween party. My kids might want to pitch a tent and camp out there one night too, as long as it's on your side of the fence, and you've replaced that damn clear bathroom window! Edit: Oh yeah, to keep this thread on topic (partying in Gainesville)... "It's a dead man's party, who could ask for more? It's a dead man's party, leave your body and soul at Nugget's door!" ------------------------- That boy's got somethin' wrong with his medulla oblongata. Edited: 08/05/2008 at 10:19 AM by wetspot |

No, no digging in cemeteries. Our research methods are mostly unobstrusive & nondestructive and just include filling out forms, taking photographs, drawings and measurements and examining geneological and funerary tax records, etc. We work closely under the church and community groups in charge of the sites.
But it could get ackward when I start landscaping the back yard. Guess I should stay away from the fence line! ------------------------- Outta time! |

you said it!
Could wind up being a 1 vs. 2 or 3 matchup if both teams can get through the early part of their schedule.... OSU or USC will have a loss by then |

And after the university was ranked #1 party school, this comes out:
UF looking to tackle excessive drinking A week after being named the nation's top party school, the University of Florida is breaking up the party. UF is proposing a ban on drinking games and kegs in a sweeping rewrite of its student conduct code released Monday. UF officials said those parts of the rules are mainly meant for activities on campus and in university facilities including fraternity and sorority houses. The regulations would be extended to students living off campus only in an extreme situation where drinking led to injuries or property destruction, said Patricia Telles-Irvin, vice president for student affairs. ------------------------- Outta time! |

What's with the trash service up here? In the "O.C." they picked up twice a week and whatever was on the curb would be taken as long as it was bundled or in cans. Here I get one standard can and anything in excess I have to buy these expensive yellow bags from the grocery store to put the stuff in for pick up. Then I have to schedule specifically for bulk pick up. And they tell me all my cardboard boxes have to fit into the one recycling bin I get or it won't be picked up. I guess it is a more efficient form of waste pick-up, especially given all the party debris left over every morning. I'm just ready to get rid of all this moving junk!

many things UP here in the AC are not like they are in the rest of the world
or other florida counties. jorts and trash pickup are only 2 of them. if u want the trash gone you have to take it to a dumpster from another apartment building yourself. thats just how it's done. or wait. and call, and wait. and call. and wait. try that too if u have a few days to spare. the good news is at the end of each semester u can furnish several houses by pickin up other folks leftover furniture and appliances from the same curbs. and alot of it is "like new, almost never used". go figure. in the meatime, there are other new diversions you can take advantage of: TRY IT! "....you can do whatever you want in Gville and follow it up by screaming GO GATORS!!!' and its okay, you can actually punch a baby and then do the CHOMP to its mother and she will hi-five you!!" ------------------------- Water dissolving...and water removing There is water at the bottom of the ocean |

Nice work BMach.... I dont' think the #1 ranking had much to do with the kids playing drinking games in the dorms... |
