    That sucks, but the two things aren't mutually exclusive. LSU funding could remain flat or even increase, and the budgets of certain departments could be cut.

    This is one of those times that I have no reason to listen to your speculation. I'm right in the middle of it and I know the score.

    That sucks dude. Cutting budgets, which normally leads to cutting jobs, is not fun. Good luck.

    Not sure if you think I was joking cause you know, I'm always clowning around, but I'm dead shit serious. They don't fix this shit in a hurry I'm back to relying on my pension. Eff that. Time to go to work in the 818, may not make good money but at least I will enjoy the work.

    That sucks Shane, hope it works out for you......medical industry is cutting back as well, not that they don't have the money just afraid to spend it with all the gov't crap looming.

    I will be fine. Hell, given my current situation this actually could be a good thing. Then again i have always been able to make chicken salad out of chicken shit. Doesnt always taste great but its edible. I really do appreciate it though. Next football season will be here soon enough and we can start fresh ;)

    Of course if obama was the great savior and all, im sure its the gop's fault cause red said so
