Made me cry. Currently crying. I am a baby. But I'm not, though.
That's how great that is.

WHA, I am embarrassed to admit I didn't know the story behind your handle. I'll never look at that the same way.

GOOD AGGIE BULL!!!!
As I read thru the OP and saw the name "Pinky" I thought no way, not that Pinky... Sorry for your loss with your dad and to echo what just about every other person has said so far... AMAZING! Great legacy you have and I can only imagine the stories that you have heard from those 2 men about Aggieland.

Please make sure this ends up in the Corps Center and don't sell it off to some chump for money. If that ever has to happen, take up a collection from TexAgs and then have it donated

You must not have paid much attention to our Aggie memorabilia discussion threads over the years. He's always been pretty cool about the family connection while providing a resource base.
