The guy living in the room next to me sophomore year played only Rush and Yes. Loud and constantly so much that I got to the point where I listened to his playlist more than my own. In fact I was half convinced Swamper rush2112 was him when he said he went to college in Boston the first time.

This is deserving of a gold star.

I think all Swampers know how I feel on this and I'm just disappointed it wasn't 6-3 like yesterday's ACA ruling (I know Thomas, Scalia & Alito would never go for it)

Something interesting I might have learned and didn't realize (if it is true) is that the resurgence of the confederate flag was related to the civil rights movement in the 1960s.
