Maurice Hilleman, the “father of modern vaccines” graduated from MSU in 1941. So there’s that.

lol. I’m not sure I do either. I was just reading an article on him and it popped up that he graduated in 1941. I may have needed to quit drinking about 2 beers ago.

I counted and Taco takes 41 steps from the time he goes in motion to the time he catches the ball. Ok, I actually didn’t, but wouldn’t that be amazing.

Punters are people too!!

And my son turned 41 the 6th. We had champagne and donuts in the shop at 8 am Tuesday and then I sent all employees home for the day with it paid… was up Monday until 2:00 am celebrating and up at 6:30 am to meet the crew at 8 in the shop. Good times!
With success comes attention, with attention comes cockiness, with cockiness comes arrogance, with arrogance comes rudeness...and they wonder why I hate the Griz ! FTG
