University of Maryland's slogan was "Fear the Turtle"... I'm not sure there's anything romantic about that... especially since the whole time he was at U of MD, I told him how stupid it was. And can you even send a telegram anymore? Can we say text message? Or maybe I could wear his college sweatshirt when he gets home?
Do schools even have fight challenges anymore?? And I don't know if I can bring myself to it -- as we went to rival high schools! ;-)
ReplyDeleteGood evening, Kat~
ReplyDeleteThank goodness Skippy and I went to the same school. No rivalry here! :> )
Blessings~

Hello, Vanessa.
ReplyDeleteOur local schools do still do this... but, as a home schooler, I am far out of that loop. I actually pulled his U of MD sweatshirt out to put on when we went out to play in the snow. Some helpful person picked it up and put it away and that was that. I never thought of it again. OOPS! Don't worry, though. Lots of snow I will need to keep warm in...
So, Laura, you and Skippy have known each other a long time??? Neato! I am popping over to check out your post now. I am sorry I wasn't there sooner... lots going on here the last few days.
Hugs,
Kat
Laura had a good idea to post this on her blog. I stole it with a little twist. I got Brianna to get onto Allen's blog for me and put up a post. If you want to see it you can check it out at

Am I the only person who thinks it is a pain that you can create a link in a comment box???
Thanks for the inspiration, Laura.
