Explanation was easy... female dominated profession with low salary scale [as was the graduate nursing educators] compared to the vet Med school and School of Dentistry . Funny... Vet Med and Dentistry still exist even though the savings of the female professions were minuscule
Writing, revising, "Quarterbacking" on ... words. Is his wife still a sideline reporter for FSN basketball and ESPN sports?
Spent time at the Nola Museum of Art and 'sculpture 'Garden. Well worth the visit; the zoo is great; wife loved shopping at the stores where you needed a reservation and was rung into buy [husband got snacks, sweet tea, and a full walletectomy]
Next, the BIG10 will emulate this move, and take Ohio State out in football, [Michigan and Michigan State in basketball], Iowa and Penn State out in wrestling and other perennial winners out in other sports. No room for excellence.
Cecil's, on Cleveland Ave. [in Highland Park] still has them in their bakery case. Not as good as they used to be (as I remember them) they are still the only game in town for them.
Just need the revenues from attendance. Most of the host schools did not even need to win more than one game to make it in.... [exception Wisc., Missou, LSU, Texas Tech (and others?)]
Last shine stand I saw was in the Downtowner Car Wash on East 7th "St. in Saint Paul. I have not been there in well over a year, so can't verify if it is still there or not. He did lots of boots, purses, leather vests etc.
In his Golden Valley Liquor store he had a picture of the "Maz" world series home run. Great photo!!! Wonder where it is now?
It's just one more place where we have been nickeled and dimed to death. A "perk" that came with the [phone] service is now a pay customer offering and is far less useful, and far more expensive than the original.
Was great in the past as the 128 Club; have not tried the new owner's menu. From what I see and hear, it continues to be a St. Paul destination.

The middle of May is approaching, and the best record in baseball belongs to the Minnesota Twins.
Even better: The team carved out a block of $5 seats for the remainder of its home games this month and sold 20,000 within a day.
Affordability and winning sells. An easy concept.
