Was in the attic at my mother's today and ran across these two pictures. I haven't seen them in years and I had forgotten about them. Hope you enjoy. Dated 1970 & 1975

Those are great! Thanks for posting!

Hope the New Year is treating you and yours well. Good to see you posting more.

I have a few of those Aggie Joke books.

Question "Do you know how many Aggie Jokes there are?"

Answer "None! They're all true."

Aggies wrote those joke books. Made a ton of money for themselves and the school. Best joke of all.

Something from 1975 is not old.

For some of the people posting here? Yeah, we are old. I am very gratified that 1944 considered me as a poster worthy of presenting his case for being a legit poster from the Class of '44. (Although not being a premium member the chance to DM me was not there.)

The only time I regretted not being a paying subscriber. Would have loved talking to him because he likely knew a few of my uncles.

Yay Mrs. hawg.

For you youngsters out there, hawg and I are about the same age, both retired.

In my case, I worked my ass off for 47 years since I was 12 years old to retire at 59.

1975 was not that long ago, almost got murdered in Waco that year in an aggravated armed robbery. I had a blood clot blow up an optic nerve in 2009,....as much as we partied in the 70's, I should be dead. Two of my high school buddies and fellow fry cooks at Whataburger are,...Easy Ed at 46 heart attack, and Hatcher, 60, from cancer.

I should have been dead long before now, but I'm still standing.

It would have been cool to talk to 1944. He was approximately the same age as my Dad, who took a .32 Geyser off a Nazi in WWII, brought it home. I gave that gun to my nephew in California months back. He doesn't come to Texas, because his wife won't fly,...I just roll my eyes at that statement, ****, get in the truck and drive straight through for 24 hours, done deal.

A few years ago, my 92 year old cousin, retired Army Colonel died, he fought in WWII, Korea and Viet Nam. I learned at his funeral he was in his tank alone one day in Korea, the Chinese Army topped a hill, so he swung the turret around and started firing at them,

I have a metal foot locker I use to store dvd's. It was my Uncle's, a first Lt., 21 year pilot of a B24 Liberator who got shot down in the Ploesti Oil Field Raids in WWII. His guys bailed, he crashed, and got shot to death by Nazi's. Another Uncle was a medic at Guadalcanal in the Pacific Theater fighting Japs.


1944 was of The Greatest Generation, and I am glad his son is here, and sharing.

Four Aggie fish had just completed a grueling final for Spelling 101.

So they drove to LaGrange and paid $25 each to spend the night in a warehouse.

The 2nd print is "Entering Kyle Field 1975" t.u. game. Note......DeWare Field House, no 3rd deck, no Zone, and the senior in a short sleeve midnight. Beat the sips 20-10. Memories......Carl Roachs (sp?) end-around on the 2nd play from scrimmage, touchdown pass to Richard Osborne, Bubba Bean's long run with the ball held over his head, and the sips only td on a punt return, refs missed a clip that set it up. For our efforts, we made the cover of SI, and then went to Arkansas and screwed the pooch,

Have that Kyle Field Photo framed and in my office. Reminds me of simpler times in Aggieland. Remember the selling of Mums down Jersey Street coming into town.
