The Family, Reunited
Nov 20 2006

{ NOTE: Spunk looks really drunk in this picture, but he’s not. He can’t get drunk. No… seriously. He works for Lifeway Christian Camps and signed a contract agreeing never to partake of alcohol. No… seriously. Besides, at his size a half bottle of Nyquil would knock him out until next Christmas. I had to choose this picture ’cause David looked a little “fruity” in the other one. }

For the first time in more than a year, “The Family” – which is comprised of five of Mississippi College‘s finest graduates (ever) – was reunited over the weekend in Jackson, Mississippi. We spent the night at Logan’s on Lakeland Drive, the Seattle Drip (ironically), then to the Pettus’ house until 1:00 AM where I then convinced the masses that a trip to Waffle House was the much-needed piece of the puzzle. Oh, to be a fly on the wall.

Between the five of us you’ll find 5 members of Who’s Who Among American Colleges & Universities, 4 members of the prestigious Mississippi College Mortar Board, 4 members of the Student Government Association (SGA) Executive Body, 4 Civitan officers, 1 Shawreth Vice-President, 1 SGA Campus Activities Board Chairman, 1 recipient of the once-per-year Founders Award, 1 SGA Chief of Staff, 1 Men’s Affirs Board Chairman, 1 member of the Hall of Fame, 2 Suma Cum Laude graduates, 2 Cum Laude graduates, one thank-the-Laude (me) graduate, and the 1st and 2nd runner-up of Mr. Mississippi College for the Class of 2003 – whew.

O’Doyle rules.

Another thing… we’re not talking about the present haircut of yours truly. There’s a story behind it. There’s also a barber shop in Seattle I’ll never visit again. I like this hair… so don’t be surprised it you see this hat over the next few days.
