I've always thought that
Wake Forest is one of the great names of all time for a school, and
Demon Deacons is one of the great names for a football team (along with
The Crimson Tide).
>Wake Forest is 20-30 minutes from High Point (to the northwest) and I am 30 minutes from High Point in the opposite direction (almost straight east). Greensboro is northeast of High Point. Many people live in Winston Salem and work in High Point and vice versa. Wake Forest is a great school.

>If you ever go to Winston Salem to visit your friends, let me know. We can meetup. As a single parent, I never get the opportunity to meet the online folks. There are many other Foxpro developers around here and I've only met the ones I work with. Lots of net folks though. There are some pretty popular dotnet meetings I've just started attending in the area. That is something that was never available in Fayetteville (2.5 hours to the south).

People are always telling me I don't look like I'm in my 40s, but I know I do. Friday night when I picked my daughter up at the Lacross game, I overheard some teenage boys telling Haley that her mom is hot. I got a smile out of that. When Haley got in the car, she told me (not realizing I had heard anyway) and she continued: 'See mom, now if only you didn't dress so old!' I am a constant embarrassment to her these days. Such is the life of a parent. I cannot be seen or heard or I embarrass her. :o) I'm tempted to cover my face in green gook and put on an old lady's bathrobe and slippers the next I pick her and her friends up. :o) Lines and bags under the eyes are the suretell sign. :o) That's okay. I still feel good. :o) >>
>>Haha!!! Great story. I wonder how a daughter feels when friends say her mom is hot, as opposed to how a son feels if friends say the same thing.

>>Last year I heard a song on the radio with lyrics that killed me...it went something like "Stacy's mom has got it going on"....I laughed hysterically.
>>
>>Nah, I wouldn't do the bathrobe thing - do the
opposite. That'll be the talk of Haley's school for at least a week. ;)

>>Different question - how far is Greensboro from Winston Salem? (i'm too lazy to check mapquest). I have a friend who lives there....his kids go to Wake Forest and he's a huge WF fan.
