What's there to talk about with football? We're going 15-0 and winning it all. Everyone here pretty much agrees on that. Not much activity on here when people agree. When we disagree you get more + we've stayed away from problematic ad hominem attacks. This is actually solid discussion which shows growth.

Anyways dawgs by 90.

Tater, my man!

Haha! It's 94 degrees up here and they are closing schools 2-3 hours early. Lol
Next week highs in the mid 80's.

I went to school in Meridian in the 50s and 60s. Our elementary school didn't have air-conditioning. The new junior high, Northwest, was all on one level and didn't have air-conditioning. It had a flat roof, and one time they ran lawn sprinklers on the roof but it didn't help much. High school was just the 11th and 12th grades and for the most part didn't have air-conditioning. But we made it just fine and as far as I know never closed or shut down early because it was hot. At State, the freshman dorms were not air conditioned, but the school year is mostly in the fall, winter, and spring so it didn't matter much. Later on, I was in Hamlin and Suttle and both were air-conditioned and it was like heaven. I was a co-op student and spent one summer in Hamlin when the AC was broken, and little to no ventilation.

10 days till football begins..and this is what everyone on here wants to talk about.....
To be fair. I'm glad to see the politics have for the most part stayed out...

Again. It's hot. it's damn hot. but the worst of summer is almost over thankfully.

It's hard to believe that football starts in 10 days. Then it will seem to be over in an instant.

[DownwardDawg]

94 degrees would feel like a cool fall evening right now to us. Hahaha

Hahaha!!!

[DownwardDawg]

LOL! You know its bad when you're looking at next weeks forecast and going "Hey it's only gonna be 95!!!"

Haha! Absolutely!!

Fellow Wildcat here, Class of ?83. I went to Kate Griffin for jr high and no AC just fans, the 10th grade was at Harris, no AC and the 11th and 12th at MHS and like you said we made it just fine of course this was before the heat index was invented we just knew it was hot lol!

Thanks for asking. I'm finding out I don't heal like i did when i was younger. Everythings coming along pretty well except for the ankle fractures, but it's all good and i'll be fine just a little longer than I anticipated. Will be at the Arizona and lsu game for sure, hope to make a couple more.

[DownwardDawg]

Great to hear! Yes it's much harder to heal these days. I think it's the weather!!!

Thanks, man! About 20 years ago I broke my ankle(same one) and tore all the ligaments in it playing softball. In 4 weeks time, i taped the sucker up tight and played in a tournament. Dont heal like that no more lol!

As long as that wrist is still good for ringing Cowbell, that's all Arnett needs outta ya. I'll be around the LSU game tailgating early and serving out the Spotted Cows. Let me know if you're gonna be in the Breakfast beer crowd.

"...and the huge amounts of water vapor from the eruption may have a small, temporary warming effect, since water vapor traps heat. The effect would dissipate when the extra water vapor cycles out of the stratosphere and would not be enough to noticeably exacerbate climate change effects."

Way before you, Commerce. I was class of 65. We had our 45th class reunion a few years ago, and oddly enough, I was the only one out of over 500 graduates who hadn't changed a bit ....

In the 60s, Harris was still the black school (hadn't yet integrated the schools there). Does Meridian now have two high schools, Meridian and Harris?

Yeah you?re just a little older, lol. I was born in 65. Harris has been closed down for awhile and so has KG. We used to have baseball practice in the Harris gym when there was inclimate weather. Ground balls come at you pretty hard off a gym floor.

We just had our 40th and funny thing I?m the only one who hasn?t changed a bit either!
