Northern Illinois University[edit]
@Randy Kryn: Is it true that you attended Northern Illinois University? And if so, are there any documents or sources anywhere that can verify and corroborate this? Thanks Vpegf (talk) 09:53, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
- Hello Vpegf. Yes, graduated in 1973 with a journalism B.A. I've never tried to find an online vertification, and have never been back to campus (all the corn fields are probably condos and shopping malls by now). Thanks for following up. Randy Kryn (talk) 11:19, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
Nancy Pelosi[edit]
@Randy Kryn: by the way, may we use this thread to come up with language for a sentence or two about the Nancy Pelosi connection? I think I know how to cite that booklet you showed me, thanks. Vpegf (talk) 12:43, 14 January 2023 (UTC)

- Really no notable Nancy Pelosi connection, she just happened to be the co-chairperson of the committee with Ron Brown (both of them in separate places actually tried to get me to negotiate a Jerry Brown endorsement of Clinton, although he didn't want to so I didn't even try.) The book would just have a list of committee members but I guess that's all that's needed to verify. Good luck with your favorite team(s) in the playoffs, only game I'll watch this round is Tampa Bay on Monday. Randy Kryn (talk) 13:05, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
- @Randy Kryn: Wikipedia editing 101 (check it out lol), citation addition forthcoming.
- p.s. saw they're facing the Cowboys, my brother lives in Dallas and I visited him for Christmas Dec. 2021, swung by the Cowboys new stadium on a Sunday morning gameday, sort of a bucket list thing when in The Big D (they are America's Team after all). They had their heyday a few decades ago but haven't returned as Super Bowl contenders since the 90s, maybe this year will be different? I mentioned before that a high school acquaintance/classmate plays on the Bills, childhood fav team was the 49ers, so those are the teams I'm pulling for.
