The day has arrived ....

The Rhodes Scholarship, named for the British mining magnate and South African politician Cecil John Rhodes, is an international postgraduate award for students to study at the University of Oxford.[1] It is widely considered to be one of the world's most prestigious scholarships.[2] Established in 1902, it was the first large-scale programme of international scholarships,[3] inspiring the creation of a great many other awards in other countries.

 

Yes, I was joking.

 

Lol. Leave it up to you to know of a company named Road Scholar

 

I've been to England; ;nasty weather and the people talk funny and talk snooty; says me, the guy with the Tennessee hillbilly accent.

 

If you're from Tennessee, then you're salt of the earth. Have a bunch of family in east Tennessee. One of them works for Forward Air. Go Vols.

 

Except for kebab, food sucks as well.

Reminds me, was gonna rent a motorcycle while I was there. Called a guy there and he had just shut down his rental program (still had a tour leader gig going on). Told me that motorcycle theft had gotten so bad in England he couldn't afford the insurance on the rentals anymore. Recommended renting a bike in France. That's where he was taking his bike tour groups to. Stopped doing all bike tours in England.

 

Tennessee is a nice state to live in. I was born and raised just North of Nashville in dark fired tobacco country. Moved to Southern Nevada not too long ago because like the year round weather there.

 

My goal to eventually end up somewhere in Tennessee within an hour of Knoxville. My family is huge University of Tennessee fans. That may take some convincing since my wife's family is all from where we live now.

 

My uncle retired from UT Cookville, but it's been years ago. He was a professor there and had a doctorate. Years ago he played for the old Los Angeles Rams until he was drafted into the Army. The Rams said they could get him out of the draft, but he refused.
Your wife would probably like the more laid back lifestyle in Tennessee.

 

I think you may be right.Its not everyday you such good typing.Some of us type whatever and let the members figure it out lol.
