and I just cancelled my paid subscription a couple of weeks ago because of staff increasing the price....looks like I'm going to have to subscribe again to read his old posts...and I still believe Gates, Fran, and the Pope are all one in the same...until I see them all standing next to each other you will not be able to change my mind.

Dr. Gates, you have clearly made an impact on this university. I am very sad to see you go, but I am also very proud to have you serving as our Secretary of Defense.
I think I speak for all Aggies when I say that your kind words about our school and our ideals are greatly appreciated. You could have just simply taken your nomination and said little else - but you wanted everyone to know how you felt about Texas A&M and how hard of a decision this was.
I only hope we can find another President to lead this great university in the way that you did - to see that it becomes the best in the country in EVERY aspect. You raised the bar of expectation for Texas A&M. You will never be forgotten in Aggieland.
God Bless Dr. Gates, and Gig 'em!

One small issue: Legacy points for offspring of former students should be reinstated. I hope this gets reassessed and put back into the system - even if only a point or two...
Thanks for the memories...
In particular I most appreciated your Messages to the Corp of Cadets each year.

OBTW, is this a "leave of absence"?... or permanent??... or is this an opportunity for greater political aspirations in upcoming elections???

We couldn't be more proud of you and your service to our University, but more than anything what you are doing for our country now. Thank you Dr. Gates! Gig 'em.

Dr. Gates,
Thanks to you, I am now more than ever prepared to answer the question "Who is your hero?". Thank you so much for all that you have done for the Aggie family, you are the Spirit of Aggieland.

I was told last Spring by an individual in the position to know that Dr. Gates a.) visits TexAgs semi-regularly and b.) has an alias with which he posts on occasion. I thought that was an interesting tid-bit, but didn’t do anything with it at the time.
Several months later a moderator brought to my attention a post submitted by a ranger65. It was obvious from the contents of the post that ranger65 was someone close to Dr. Gates. After some investigation I was able to determine with a high degree of certainty that ranger65 was either Dr. Gates himself or his personal secretary. With the knowledge of the Dr. Gates alias, I concluded, correctly, that ranger65 was Dr. Gates himself.

Dr. Gates,
Thank you for your service to Texas A&M University. I am proud that you have been selected as our next Secretary of Defense for our great country. I believe that President Bush has picked the right man for the right job.
Remember that when you’re done in Washington – you will always have a home here at Texas A&M University.

As a former corps/band member, I have to thank you for what you have done. As an Aggie, I have to thank you for what you have done. As an American I have/will thank you for what you have done/will do. As an employee of BI (you are on the board...or were now) I thank you. I doubt you remember, but I was the guy seeking an internship and you took my resume and sent it along. I still have the e-mail, and job.
Thanks for making the little things big. Good luck and prayers.

I take a break from finals to browse Texags, see the thread post......
then I think to myself
"What if by a snowball's chance in he11 this is Dr. Gates (this is TexAgs) so I try to sugarcoat my request with a friendly 'Thx & Gig'em'"
TORBUSH! Either way he was still a rook. Now I have a story to tell my kids, this of course assumes my life is spared. Who else will provide Texags with A&M HD goodness?!
AGAIN..... TORBUSH! &

This is totally keeping me from studying.
Dr. Gates,
I'd like to echo the sentiments of many here. You have been a blessing to this university. Thank you for your service and dedication to Texas A&M and our country. You are a true embodiment of the Aggie Spirit and will always have a home here in Aggieland. I'm disappointed that your name won't be on my diploma, but I look forward to watching your outstanding leadership for our nation. Make us proud (even though you already have). Thanks, gig 'em, good luck and God bless.

P.S. The 6:48 press conference idea or any other displays of Aggie spirit would be pretty awesome.

I've seen you come and seen you go Dr. Gates, it has been amazing what you have done with the university.
Now, maybe one day I will finally graduate before the next president moves on.
