The Collin County edition of the Dallas Morning News this past Sunday (Feb 12, 2006 - Page 3B) had a picture of a "Sherwood Blount" at the dedication of the new "Russell Creek YMCA" in Plano, Texas.

I posted something about Sherwood Blount the other day, but then I wondered: can we get in trouble for talking about him?

I must admit one of his quotations back in the early 80s has served as somewhat of an inspiration; that is, when he said "I can spend my money however I damn well please."

Disclaimer: I draw the line at all the bad stuff done by Mr. Blount to get SMU in trouble.

When i got my degree from SMU, we spelled it sighting.

But things might have been different pre-death penalty.

kidding....kinda...

Yeah, siting is kind of what you work towards in determining how you are going to develop a piece of property. However, if you have seen something unusual...or not...recently, that would be a sighting. :roll:

I feel your pain. Ten years of practicing law and I still can't shake Young's modulus and Poisson's ratio outta my head. Damn you Cecil Smith!!!!

Long live Cecil Hiawatha Smith (or however you spell it).

What a character. He'll probably keel over someday from all that chalk he ingested.
