Just found out that Herman Cain was at Purdue the same time I was. (He was working on his graduate degree in computer science.) I had no idea...not that it matters much...but interesting (to me). I know one guy who won't vote for him now. 8)
That's in the category of small world. The only person of note at Texas when I was there was Farrah Fawcett, I actually had a class with her. Anthropology of the Southwest....don't remember a frikin thing about that class except her. BTW: I was reading an article in a dental magazine written by a Mansfield dentist named Thomas Abrahamsen, don't happen to know him do you?
