hoosieranna Posted March 18, 2007 Author Share Posted March 18, 2007 Cool. Thanks for responding. Incidentally, the subtitle is supposed to read "I don't bite", not "I don't bi". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sojourner Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 There are a few more hoosiers who post from time to time: Pio Nono (seminarian), Track1004 (or whatever the number is), Knight of the Holy Rosary, PedroX (doesn't post much anymore) ... I think that's it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sojourner Posted March 18, 2007 Share Posted March 18, 2007 They're talking about building an interstate from Indy to Evansville. People are all up in arms about it. Don't know about the flooding, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also referred to the part of campus between the chapel and one of the halls as "Lake UE". Thanks for the info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love the area! Went to USI but around UE is just such a nice part of town- good neighborhoods Nothing really new in the Ville, like usual! They've added some things to the riverfront. UE is adding on to the southwest part of campus- not sure what building it's going to be. It matches the rest of campus so it looks nice. We had some bad flooding a few months ago (not sure exactly- horrible memory especially with time)! It got the south side of town bad. My basement was full of water- thankfully, I rent...so I didn't have to mess with any of it! I'm moving to NM here in a month. I sure will miss E-ville but God will provide...

Nothing wrong with USI, either. But I don't think they had archaeology. I'll have to visit UE when I'm there in April. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hoosieranna Posted March 19, 2007 Author Share Posted March 19, 2007 One of my fellow grad students graduated from U of E. He really enjoyed his time there. I mostly know it as an engineering school. Also, my uncle is Hal Wolford. He used to be on the news in Evansville. Anyone ever seen him doing strange things on TV? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JuCa Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Archaeology Cat- you could hit up a Father Pontifex Mass when you are in the Ville.. his parish is about 5-10 mins from UE... not far at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll probably go back to Owensboro to go to Mass with my Aunt, but it would be nice to know all my options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
