    OT: Anyone ever read Finnegans Wake? Is it as difficult to read like every says?

    I am not a Joyce fan, but this thread is one of the most impressive ever. To discuss getting smoked by Purdue to the vagaries of Joyce in the same message board is indeed epic. Rutgers fans are truly renaissance people.

    Rutgers New Brunswick students release a 'terrorist-like' message to their school, demanding that the school cut ties with Israel.

    While anonymity may, in certain circumstances be constitutionally protected, Rutgers can follow the logic and precedent of the Ku Klux Klan anti masking statutes. Rutgers could ban masking done to incite fear and to intimidate. There are a number of states where this is still the law. See...

    OT: Lumbar decompression Surgery (OK who's had it and what can I expect?)

    I had surgery last August for a variety of issues at L2, L3. I have issues throughout the spine having previously had two surgeries in my neck. Surgery was successful and I can walk 4 miles (with a couple of stops) with a cane. I echo the other comments regarding using a neurosurgeon rather...

    OT: Last reunion of any kind you attended

    Went to my Rutgers College 50th last fall. The University did a nice job with dinners and events. By happenstance met up with 3 other guys from my freshman dorm, Hegeman 6, (back then Hegeman was divided into six houses). Sign of how times have changed: I got into a conversation with a...

    OT: Best (most insane) dinners

    The Carnivore restaurant in Nairobi in the eighties. (Think Brazilian barbecue with local game and outdoors). Best combination of food and location: Le Tren Bleu in Paris. Entire experience outstanding and the Rocco architecture unbelieveable.

    Happy Birthday Rutgers

    I wound up going to law school. I never clicked with the history dept. TA's and couldn't see myself being one of them. I had a high draft lottery number so didn't have to worry about Viet Nam and felt law school gave me more options (I was very undecided about what I wanted out of life). Law...

    OT: Delaware Beach Towns

    Lewes is the quietest of the towns mentioned. While it is true that the town beach is on the bay, Cape Henlopen state park at the south end of town is smack on the ocean and has lots of activities on its 5000 acres. You also have the ferry to go to Cape May.
