That would be fun! Or just drop by and have lunch, whatever works. I'll drop you an e-mail next time I plan a trip to Houston with some wiggle room (last trip was short and busy with family stuff).

This makes me smile! I was in Houston this Spring for family reasons. I dropped by campus to get some Rice swag, and popped in for a bit. My has Anderson changed! It feels so modern.

I used to get annoyed at bad behavior on social media. The "reply guys", trolls, engagement baiters, grifters, etc. drove me nuts*. But I also wanted the free wheeling conversations that an unfettered platform provides. I realize now that, even with blocking, muting, selective engagement, etc...
