That’s cool stuff, ULM has its own ZIP code but uses a Monroe address

And to clarify my previous post, I’d use the hell out of it for everything else. I’m sure it’d piss off the pig fans.

I'd like to help you out because I've seen (the film is actually Billy Madison).... however, I don't know what porn is so I cannot help.

Oh! Well, porn is...you know what, you should just Google it. At work, if you get the chance.

(And I did see Billy Madison back in undergrad...I guess the twentysomething years since have not been kind to my memory...)

I may be wrong but even though it would probably get there I don't ever remember an address on campus being a Jonesboro address. It's always StAte University.

The problem with owning the State University thing is Fedex and UPS. They use Jonesboro zip code not State University. If you order something and it gets "transferred" in between the USPS and a parcel service your package goes away for a few months. Then, randomly shows up at your door one day with coconut fibers, a suntan, and Antarctic stamps on it.

I spent way too much time trying to finding a .gif in order to make a fitting response to this...

I failed.

Haha! Yes, I've seen that one more recently. Not by a lot, but I apparently didn't kill all of my brain cells while watching it.

I'm also of the perfect age to always immediately think of that guy as David from The Real World.

The highlight of my day during my Freshman Year was checking that PO box. I mean, it was stupid. I never actually got any mail outside of junk, but it was mine and no one else could have it.

I think the only mail I ever got was the once a semester when my parents would mail me a check to deposit to pay tuition. Its amazing what you could get excited when you first started college and went out on your own.

I always like when the new phonebooks came in. Having your name in print is the kind of spontaneous publicity that makes people.

Well and the one other day a month when....03-thumbsup
[Image: tenor.gif?itemid=7545622]

True Story. My roommate Freshman Year was an avid collector of that stuff. The guy claimed he was a polygamist supporter, and held three of four girlfriends (He was never sure how many) at the same time. All of whom knew and supported of this. He even ranked them 1-4.

I walked in one night after a late night IHOP run with friends to find him with Girlfriends 1 and 2...well...looking at that stuff. I turned and walked out and crashed with a friend the rest of the night. I may never unsee what I saw that day.

Your roommate sounds like a legend 04-cheers

He was in his own mind...that's for sure. It took me a good 6 months to begin to actually relate to him.

Nice guy when you got to know him, (I won the lottery for a private room the next year, and to this day I have never seen him again since last Final of Freshman year)

Phonebooks didn't get mailed for us. They were just left at your door one morning every two months. It was still fun at first. After a while they just sort of took up space. I'm not sure why we constantly got new ones, but we did.

Interesting.

Up until July 31st, 1960 there was a Collegeboro, GA for the Georgia Teachers College, which is now Georgia Southern.

Last time it was on a map was in the mid 50's.

http://georgiainfo.galileo.usg.edu/histc...955map.htm

So is it called Statesboro now because Georgia State took over? 05-stirthepot
You nailed it, Bobcat.
