The only engineering they had at UGA at the time was Ag Eng.  I understand now they have an actual regular Eng program for some reason.  I thought we had a minor adjunct university, or institute, down the road a bit that took care of it.

North Avenue Trade School, "NATS" for short.

My brother was in a fraternity and I hung out with them some.  They were fun, some of their parties were epic.

I went to one frat party, during rush, my cousin was interested (and joined it).  Some gal sat down next to me making eyes and when I told her I was not interested in the frat at all, she got up and left.  That particular party was quite lame in my estimation.

We had a wine tasting here last night that got fairly epic.

I wouldn't want to Judge you for that desire.

GTOs are pretty cool, but I bet they drive like crap today.

Yeah, but we didn't know it.  Modern cars are pretty amazing to me, if expensive-ish.

My GTI would outrun most 60s and 70s GTOs every made in the quarter mile and on any race track, or keep up with them anyway.  This one was fast in 1969.
