lol, I'm sorry, but there was a secret $1,000 prize for the closest guess. However since you have admitted to cheating you must forfeit said prize. ;)
Just out of curiosity, where is your friend from who mentioned it? I'm curious how folks from other areas feel about this. I'm rather annoyed at the whole situation for a number of reasons.
The University is very proud of their work though and seem to think it was a quarter-million well spent.
I am gonna guss about 250k...projects like that always tend to be a little more expensive with the manual labor and all involved.
inhale beat you to it, but you were off by only 5,000
no!!!!!!
well fuck it--
my boy eddie is from SLU he was here over the weekend though & it was more of a comment on the fountain because everyone was discussing Katrina
ahhh... I was just wondering how hard they were promoting it.
If he were from another state, I was going to be shocked that anyone outside even knew about it.
Im just thinking of their thought process behind this... A huge tragedy happened a while back, why dont we build ourselves memorial to feel better about it instead of donating like everyone else
In the paper a few months ago they had an article about a hospital [England] that spent £70,000 on a ROCK - just a ROCK to go outside the front entrance.
