I was introduced to McSorley's ~1972 by a friend from my freshman dorm who, like SuperG1955, had been going there for several years before she could legally do so ... as I recall, there were five or six of us who were very grateful that her wedding was at 4pm, because anything much earlier would have been a real challenge

It was a very controversial situation when they were forced to admit women.

So cute! Thank you for saving them!

48 hours from now I can say that I will have 5 semesters of college completed and 3 more to go. Can't wait for the day where I do not have to take classes anymore.

I said the same thing when I was in your position, and can now say that, one year after graduation, I actually miss taking classes and being around college..

Completely done with work for the year. My computer still has a couple hours of file uploading to do, but that's it. Enjoying wrapping up my last work trip with a nice dinner in one of my favorite cities. Fly home tomorrow and start relaxing 'til 2015!

Apparently only one of them can read. And it seems she likes the sports pages.

Perhaps the other is just allowing her to practice her reading skills.

I'm sure I will feel like that at least a little bit when I graduate and move somewhere else in the country.
