I got engaged to a lovely young lady down in skegee. We were getting set up to meet her father in Orlando for spring break. We were setting up the details over the speakerphone when her father said, "Well where is the boy from? She replied he is from Iowa daddy. to which he replied, I'll be damned, who would've thought I sent my daughter to Tuskegee and now she wants to marry a white boy.

She then had to hurriedly explain that yes I was black.

nice I reposted this on facebook. Sometimes when I post articles like this on Onnidan I feel like I am preaching to the choir.

Not that I am the OP of this article.

I only know two kinds of people who carry cash like that. Strippers and Drug dealers.

Now I'm not saying she is either one, i'm just saying maybe I need better friends.

I am not sure what caused the fight nor do I care. What concerns me the most is the coordinated effort of football players to wreak havoc. Notice the groups of white shirts with ASU Football, performing bull rushes on other cafeteria patrons. 

My father is a retired prison warden and what we watched was prison behavior. The only thing they didn't have was shanks.

I would have preferred for the football team to start pulling people from the fight or protecting others in the cafeteria. Watch the right corner of the video, where a young lady has cornered a young man and is trying to prevent him from participating.

Damn sure felt like it. From the preview of next week, Malik me be writing himself off the Sabers by talking to the boss's wife.

Don't like the idea of him dating another addict, although she is fine. JayT get me a picture.

I feel like the show has found its stride in the last 2 episodes. Good work by cast and crew.

I don't know that I could make it 6 months offline. I value the collective intelligence and diversity of opinion I get from Onnidan too much.

Neymar I think you might be confused.

These are "Greek Letter" organizations, not actual greeks.

This act was perpetrated by random groups of regular greeks. This was not a structured campaign of Black Greek Letter Organizations.

The bigger ? - why were they sailing in an area where it is known these clowns are hijacking folks? 

White mans divine right

A policy which states that I can go wherever and whenever I please, and despite there being known consequences and hazards they do not pertain to me because my whiteness will protect me in my hour of need. 

I applaud what they wanted to do, but their stupidity of approach is equal to their dedication.
