Looks like we were there about the same time, so I'm sure I read your stuff back then too. 94-98, but refused to leave until the following summer, which now has me trapped in the great state of Mississippi, telling myself every week or so, "dude, I can't wait to go back,"...although 10 years after the fact, it's just starting to sound sad.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11250715.post-37721516112784714322008-04-29T17:22:00.000-04:002008-04-29T17:22:00.000-04:00Dude, that really took me back, albeit to a comple...Dude, that really took me back, albeit to a completely different town and university.<BR/><BR/>Problem is, I still visit FSU occasionally to peruse the film school, walk down the strip, and maybe grab the world's best ingredients between bread at FAT SANDWICH, but I never quite had what you guys had up there. I mean, I did, but I considered my surrogate family to be the music scene of Tallahassee, which tends to morph faster than Britney Spears on the Cheetoh aisle. All of my "friends" from there went every which way, and the only really lasting relationships I took away are unfortunately scattered around the country with no real enthusiasm for going back to visit. Alas, my other family, the film school, doesn't have but a smidgeon of graduates who aren't in LA or NY and working in low budget porn. Well, not really, but maybe in a few cases.<BR/><BR/>I'm envious of that experience that you guys had. Hold onto that shit, and I'm glad you guys are all still in touch. <BR/><BR/>By the way, before you even mentioned it Doug, I was thinking, "Man, he's really the only one who's actually gotten BETTER looking since then.
